10 years...


Wow. It's been a decade. I have been married for 1/3 of my life. In some ways it's hard to remember what life was like before I met Matt, and in other ways it seems like we should still be considered newlyweds.
Where did the time go?

In 10 years we have:
lived in 2 states, 4 cities, and 8 "houses"
had at least 9 jobs between us
became parents; adding 3 (almost 4!) kids to our family
acquired 3 fish and a dog
had 3 surgeries
2 sets of stitches
visited 7 states as a family
"gone through" 3 computers
switched to digital cameras
watched our kids do the things we swore our kids would never do :)
cooked 1 Thanksgiving turkey on our own
attended 1 funeral of a family member
walked a thousand miles, consoling crabby babies
perfected the art of homemade brownies (actually- that's all Matt...)
had 4 "First Day of Schools"
and been happier than I ever could have hoped for

Here's to 10 years and eternity to look forward to...
(Love you, sweetheart.)

Congrats on 10 years. They go by fast especially when you have kids to keep you busy.

Congratulations! It's crazy to think how time flies, it makes me think why I was so eager to grow up so fast. Here's to 10 more happy years and of course many many more :)
