Eight years...

Reminiscing...I feel very blessed to have married my best friend 8 years ago! I'm posting some old pictures from the beginning, our fairy tale wedding, and the additions :)

As Faith would sing...

"Mommy and Daddy, sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G

First comes love,

then comes marriage,

then comes baby

in a baby...ewww, don't kiss"

First comes love...

Fishies for the kids to take home...

Our cakes were so good! I would love to have a slice today!

Papa always said he would be at my wedding with cow bells on...there he was!

My sweet daddy had a country song-writer write a song and he had him come perform

Off to our romantic honeymoon in Maui!

 

Then comes babies in the baby carriage...

We celebrated our 8 year anniversary at quiet Karl's at the Riverbend.  It was a nice quiet evening with good food and conversation.  At the end of our meal they brought us a dessert on the house and took this picture of us...not the best picture of the two of us, but the most recent.

The past eight years of marriage has most definitely had it's ups and downs but those ups and downs are what has made our marriage what it is.  I am thankful for having a husband who will continually work on our marriage and communicate with me.  I am so blessed and thankful to call him my husband and best friend. 

Here's to many more years of health and happiness!
