Photo Share: Anniversary

1 Comment

In lieu of Weekly Winners (which I loved doing, but it has since pretty much died), I’m starting my own Sunday “Photo Share.” Primarily, it’ll be the same vein of Weekly Winners, but sometimes it’ll just be a photo-heavy photo-share of a single topic. I’m still figuring it all out. It’s been a week (and I’ll go into THAT in a later post) so I’m behind. Big time. I’ll try to really start it next week.

Also, only one photo this week.

Today is a 6th Wedding Anniversary. We take a photo every year on our Anniversary (of course) and this year’s photo was taken at Percy Priest Lake in Nashville with the camera sitting on our truck hood.

Six years! Its hard to believe… both that is been that long, and that its only been that long. We’ve been through a lot in six years, but it just makes us stronger and love each other more. I am so, so, so, so thankful.

5 Year Anniversary

3 Comments

Five years ago, I said, “I do” to my best friend. Five years ago, surrounded by family and friends, I became my husband’s wife. Five years ago… seems like it was just yesterday.

I randomly will remember moments from that day. Everything from making sure I didn’t run into my groom before I walked down the aisle to the rain softly falling as we stepped out of the church to cutting the cake to doing the Aggie War Hymn to sitting at our little cabin for the night eating summer sausage and drinking Crown and cokes. And everything in between those events. It doesn’t feel like we should be celebrating FIVE YEARS.

But, in the same breath… I can believe it.

I sure can’t fit in my dress any more. We’ve had three different addresses in those five years. We’ve handled job losses and job advances. We’ve lost pets, and we’ve gotten new ones. We continue to chase our dreams, both each other’s biggest fans. We now understand the statement, “I love you more every day.”

We’ve had arguments. We’ve had laughter so hard we couldn’t breathe. We’ve had moments of glory, we’ve had moments of failure. We’ve lived our life hand-in-hand for the last five years, and we hold hands looking to many, many more ahead.
