6 Years Ago Today...

Michael and I were getting married...
For those of you who don't know, Michael and I dated on and off for about 7 years before we had our "big day". We dated on and off all through Jr. High and High School and finally got "back together" for the last time in 2000.

After a long bout of dating each other (and a few other people that we won't mention...lol) it was FINALLY our big day. We were so excited...I remember thinking I was the luckiest girl in the world. I was marrying a man that I knew loved me 100% and a man who I couldn't imagine living without--a man that loved me unconditionally and always knows how to make me smile.This picture is of us at our reception immediately after the ceremony. We couldn't wait to see and talk to all of our family and friends, some who traveled a very long way to be with us on our special day. July 20, 2002 has by far been the happiest day of my life so far.

This is us today...We've both changed quite a bit in 6 years (he's got a little less hair and I've got a little more gray in mine...lol), but he is still the absolute love of my life and I am more thankful for him every day. Don't get me wrong, Michael and I have had our ups and downs just like every other married couple, but we are stronger as a couple now than we have ever been and I can't imagine my life without him.
Today has been a wonderful day of just spending time with each other. So, Michael, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY and thank you for being my best friend! Here's to many more years together! I love you!

Update

I know it's been a while since I posted, and in case you were wondering....I am not so stressed out anymore. Our team was able to play and did well in the tournament and we were all very proud of the girls...

Not a whole lot else has been going on since softball season is over. However, I still don't know what it's like to just go home and relax. I should have known that I would find other things that need to be done...lol

My dad has gone back to Alaska to work, so Michael and I have been helping mom get some things done at her house (yard work, appts, taking care of the dogs, etc.). My brother, sister in law and Carson are supposed to be coming at the end of the week and we are excited to be able to spend some time with them.

Michael and I also have our 6th wedding anniversary on July 20...(something tells me Michael is reading this and saying, "I can't believe it's only been 6, seems like 60...lol)

No other real changes at the moment, but I really am going to try to start posting more....
