11 years


I've been married for 11 years today. How did that happen? It doesn't seem like it could possibly have been that long.

Since we have been married we have...

Both graduated from Texas Tech University

Both gotten real jobs (and quit them too)

Moved 5 times

Lived in 2 Cities

Bought 2 homes

Had 5 children

Both been stay at home parents

Kayaked in the Pacific Ocean

Overlooked Chicago from the Sears Tower

Survived camping with a newborn

Swam in the Gulf of Mexico

And, I am thankful that I got to share all of those experiences with Jared. I love him and he is my best friend.


Check out the BEAUTIFUL flowers he gave me...

Aw, don't you two look cute! So if you guys have another kiddo, does that mean you'll have to move again to make the numbers match?!
