fun with my fellas
Nine years ago today my dear hubby and I tied the knot. We were babes. What a leap of faith! And what amazing things have happened in the past nine years. We were college students working in a local sports bar. Friends long before we got married. But the stars must have been aligned. I had boldly stated that I was nowhere near ready to be in a relationship. I mean I shouted it from the mountaintops! I had a newborn and we were going to make it with or without a MAN! Apparently, with a man was in our cards. And so glad he was. We fell in love against the odds and grew to be a family. I could never have asked anyone to love me or my daughter more. A beautiful summer wedding and another pregnancy right away. Sigh. We weren't quite overwhelmed enough! But we always seemed to pull it together when it counted. We worked through school. Had our third little guy. And went through any number of dramas and hard times. Thanks for the past nine years babe. Thanks for the laughing. And the card games. And coming to church when you haven't slept in two days. And tucking the kids in every chance you get. And thanks for loving me. I will never be able to express how much this man means to me!
Now that I have finished the super sappy portion of this post, I will move on to a happier subject. THE GIRLS WENT BACK TO SCHOOL TODAY. Whew. They were soooooooo ready. The past few weeks were a bit touchy. And now I have just my fellas at home today. Parker and I are trying to stay out of the way. You see, that man I love...is installing new hard wood floors as we speak! More pictures of that to come!

I don't know if it just the beginning years of marriage that seem so crazy, or if it just keeps going like this forever. :)
