Seventeen Years Ago Today....

Happy new Christmas Card I'm working on....
Hello + Hello!
Had to stop in and say hi on this blessed day...
my
17th Wedding Anniversary!!!
Yes,
17 years ago today I was donning an ivory gown to marry my
sweetie
Chad.
He's the man I've been through everything with.
Some thick....
&
some extremely thin
times.
We have been to hell and back, he and I.
We are the couple who shouldn't be together by today's standards....
but
guess
what...
My
God
is
STRONGER
than all that
nonsense!
Not only are we still together....
we are the proud parents of two little cutie patooties:
Tristan
&
Elliot!
We are entirely blessed for what we have together and are truly greatful for the
chance to start over and over and over
each and everyday of our married life together.
LOVE
is
NOT
something you fall into.
It is hard work every day...even every moment some days.
Give and Take.
Sacrifice and Celebration.
Together we lean on eachother for strength in all of life's ups and downs.
We belly laugh at eachothers' jokes, & pray for eachother when life gets hard.
I am so thankful for my sweet
hubby.
He is not perfect
(neither am I)
but what I admire most about him is his
quiet nature, his ability to become calm when everyone else freaks out &
his innate ability to fix just about ANYTHING!
He's left-handed, he snores (yes you do hunny!) & he's messier than I am.
BUT
he calms me down when I blow a fuse, does the dishes & loves to cook for me!
Together we are complimentary.
What more can you ask for?
So,
on this loveliest of lovely days...
I will be thankful for the time we've had together
&
I will be excited to spend my evening with my
handsome hubby out on the town.
I will also
look forward to many, many more years together with
Chad.

Enjoy your weekend my friends!
