5 Years!

Geez, it's hard to believe we've been married for five years already! Maybe what they say about time is true, it flies when you're having fun? Cause we do have a lot of fun together! Marriage is supposed to be work they say -- you're supposed to have to work at it. Our experience is that it comes really naturally when it's good. My motto is to be the kind of spouse I would like to have, kind of like treat others the way you want to be treated, and it works for us obviously, because 5 years!

Let's take a little trip through time, shall we?

We were in our early 20's when we met-- just young kids having a whole lot of fun together!

Then we got engaged!

...and got married!

and we honeymooned!

and enjoyed the newlywed life!

and celebrated our first Christmas as husband and wife! 

Then we found out we were expecting our first baby!

and we had Owen, and our world was turned upside down, but for the better! 

And together we watched him grow and grow and grow! 

The first year is a bit hazy -- we learned to exist on little sleep and a whole lot of patience!

We've had so much fun raising our boy together, and it's only just the beginning!

We rarely get much time alone, or in a picture just the two of us, these days, but that's just this season of life!

And our days, lives and hearts are about to become even more full as we await the arrive of our second baby boy! 

We're celebrating this weekend with a dinner out for just the two of us and a family day on Sunday! Happy 5 years to us and cheers to many many more!
