8 years and counting!


I haven't been able to find our CD of pictures from our wedding, so that tells me we've been married long enough to move 3 times and have at least that many children...yep, we're celebrating 8 years of marriage! We realized, too, that we forgot to get a babysitter again, so we'll be staying in to have dinner with the kids. Our anniversary kind of gets forgotten after the busy holidays. I remember, though, how lucky I am to have a husband that loves and cares about me and would do just about anything to make me happy. I'm glad that I chose someone that will help get the kids out the door to school in the morning and dinner on the table after a tiring weekend so I can take a nap. He sings the kids to sleep at night. He loves to play legos and Star Wars with Casper. He helps Whitney find a burp cloth for her babies and gives 'horse rides' to all 3 kids at once. I'm glad that he'll brave taking us all canoeing and camping and on long road trips and will wait in the car while I 'just run in to the store.' Matt's a gem and I'm lucky he's my husband. Thanks for 8 awesome years and I hope that the next 8 are even better!

Congrats! We have our anniversary at a bad time too, but we usually at least make it out to dinner. Matt's a great guy, and you are great too. Miss ya.

Congrats! I can't believe it has been 8 years. Seems like just a couple of years ago that we were moving you into your apartment on Norma Street.
