5 Year Anniversary!

5 years ago... one of our engagement pictures
Today marks our 5 year anniversary! Happy Anniversary Tim! I was thinking about how far we have come in the last 5 years and am amazed at how much we have grown.
In the last 5 years we:
  1. Rented our 1st apartment together
  2. Bought 3 new cars
  3. Celebrated Tim's college graduation
  4. Went from being a 1-income household to a 2-income household
  5. Went from having jobs to having careers
  6. Took some amazing vacations (especially LOVED the cruises to the Caribbean and Hawaii)
  7. Bought our first house!
  8. Learned all about what it takes to be a homeowner (remember the water pipe that burst under our house? That was umm... an experience!
  9. Kept to our budget
  10. Took fun weekend getaways
  11. Started out with no pets and then added Echo & Bandit to our family. Love them boys!
  12. Went from being busy to insanely busy. Oh, how we learned to be more efficient!
  13. Laughed more than we thought possible
  14. Have grown in so many ways together
  15. Learned firsthand how wonderful marriage is!

Next year, we'll be able to add having a baby to this list! I'm sure there are a million things I forgot to include. But, you always seem to remember the things that I forget, so I guess it all works out! I'm so grateful we can share our lives together! I couldn't imagine it any other way. You are a wonderful husband and friend, and I know you'll be a great dad soon. I count myself lucky to spend each day with you. It's been an amazing 5 years- here's to LOTS more! Happy Anniversary Tim- I love you!
