Our 8th Anniversary

Yesterday was our 8th wedding anniversary. Marrying Steve was the best decision I have ever made.  The longer we are married the more I understand how lucky I am. We have accomplished a lot in the last 8 years. Here are some things we have done together:

Moved 5 times

Lived in 3 different States (Utah, Washington and Virginia)

Traveled to many different places

(Oregon, Utah, Idaho, California, Arizona, Texas, Wisconsin, New York, North Carolina, Maryland, DC)

Finished a Bachelors degree and Masters degree

Had several job changes

Had several church callings

Had numerous hair colors and styles

Nursed each other through 4 surgeries

Had 3 trips to the ER

Been in 1 car accident

Bought 2 cars

Bought 1 house 

Raised 1 cat (who hasn't turned out so well)

Been on 1,000+ dates

Shared 1,000+ kisses

Survived 3 pregnancies 

Gave life to 3 beautiful children

It's crazy to think that since the day we met the longest we have been apart is 2 weeks. (It.was.torture.) We have said "I love you" to each other everyday. We have been through so many wonderful (and stressful) things together. We have made a home together, built a career together and created a family together. I kinda hate the phrase "you complete me" but I would not be the woman I am today without such a wonderful husband.
