years of pure bliss!
ha ha ha ha...
okay... SERIOUSLY... can we be honest here!
marriage is one of hardest thing we have ever done!
i guess that is to be expected when you are COMPLETE opposites from one another!
if you were to write out on a piece of paper our traits...
it would look "mathematically"... not EVEN possible... no way... no how!
those of you that know us... can attest to that! :)
a choice... commitment... to stick together through thick & thin!
we have had a lot of thin... very thin... thin ICE!
and there have been times as though i thought we would fall right through that ice!
i think when you bring two people together... AND their histories...
a new foundation sometimes has to be built.
at least for us... this has shown to be true...
because somewhere along the way our personal foundations formed a few cracks.
the really GREAT thing... as we rebuild our foundations...
we are not only becoming stronger within ourselves but... stronger as a TEAM!
we know our team needs more coaching... but we are both IN IT... to WIN it!
i am SO thankful that i have a man that lOVES me...
and is WILLING to do what ever it takes to make our lives beautiful TOGETHER!
he is a hard-working... smart as ALL get out...
always striving for the next level... well respected... funny... awesome MAN and FATHER!
so to him i say...
hAppY AnniVeRsAry!
i love you
&
look forward to what the NEXT eleven years bring!
he always gives me tulips on this day...
they are what i carried on our wedding day... my FAVORITE flower for sure!
the girlies dressed "us" special for the day... don't we look lovely! :)
they even made us cards!
so tonight... we'll be toasting with a REALLY nice bottle of red wine...
and reminiscing about the last eleven years... like when he had hair & i had a waist!

Happy anniversary....I TOTALLY agree....aren't tulips the most lovely of all the flowers? Eleven years..two children...that's no small potatoes! This year for our eleventh wedding anniversary (June, 21) we will be walking down the aisle together again...in my sister-in-law's wedding. Crazy, huh, they are getting married on the same date we got married. I'm really looking forward to this wedding...no pressure, no stress, no running the show behind the scense...just showing up for the party and put'n on my pretty dress!
HaPPy AnniversarY!!! Marriage is roads with turns, hills and slopes but being in it together makes the road worth traveling!
congrats on 11 years!!

Happy Anniversary! Hope your day (and night) were great!
Tulips are great. We go to the tulip festival ever April ... that's where our annual family picture is taken (and my profile pic) so I definitely share your appreciation for them. :)
Happy Anniversary to you guys!

Happy Anniversary to you guys:):):)

YES.....happy anuvrsiry!!
marriage is worth fighting for.
good for you.
thick and thin....for better or worse.
hope the wine was perfect.
Love what the kiddos did! So cute, especially the misspellings. :-)
Happiness to you! Marriage IS one of the hardest things we do, but so worth it to have a lifelong best friend!
Beautiful you-beautiful words. Hard because it is the process that teaches us how to LOVE like God does. Hard but worth it! Good for you. Love that post.
You are a beautiful bride!! Happy anniversary!
What a wonderful post. The truth - you spoke it - marriage is NOT easy. But I suppose if if was easy, it would be bo-ring!!! Not too many people try to make it work these days, which is so sad and such a bad message for our children. Good for you. And as a former florist - I love tulips, as well.
Happy anniversary! We're about to celebrate 10 years this weekend.
I'm working on that post tonight.
oh i can't believe i missed this great post!! congratulations on eleven years! awesome! i love your "keepin it real" words too! oh and that first card is amazing...i love the teeth! fun fun post!
I love this. I love that your girls did stuff for you, save the card forever:) Marriage is hard work but your tribute to it is inspiring. I'm so glad I started fighting for my marriage early on. I hope you had a wonderful time celebrating! Here is to YOU and your man!
HAPPY Anniversary girl!
Thanks for being honest about your marriage... sometimes I feel like I'm the only one that's ever had problems! From the outside, other marriages seem like HEAVEN.
Glad you guys have made it so far! And, may the BEST be YET to come!
SMiles,
Jen
you are precious!
happy anniversary!
I love that post - despite the hard things in marriage, the differences, it is clear, your determination, love and commitment carry on. I love your remarks of rebuilding. How that process makes you stronger, both stronger. Happy Happy Anniversary.
