Ten Years?!

WOW, where did the time go!! Today is our tenth wedding anniversary!! I can hardly believe that so much has passed, and yet there is SO much more to come!!

The photo to the right was taken just two weeks ago in Florida. It's shadowy, but it has all the things I love in it - my family and sunshine! LOL!

God really knew what he was doing when he brought Michael and I back together! I remember the day that he came back to Bethel and I got the biggest hug ever! I fondly recall our first date - even tho my food was less than tasty ;) LOL I remember his proposal after our first date... I remember our one year of engagement full of ups and downs. I so remember how I felt the moment that the doors of the church opened and my Dad escorted me down the aisle... I saw no one but Michael... even though the church was full! I still have eyes only for him!

Things I'm thankful for in the last 10 years: (in no specific order!)
  • having Michael as the love of my life
  • Michael's unending patience
  • Michael's goofy sense of humour
  • our three amazing children
  • a husband who loves God
  • a house we can call a home (even tho it still needs to be finished rennovating!)
  • the myriads of hugs I get every day from both Michael and the children
  • saying "I love you" at least once a day (usually more!)
  • hearing "I love you" at least once a day (usually more!)
  • a steady job for Michael that makes him be a great provider for our family
The list could go on, and I may add to it over the day! :D
