10 years ago on Sept 13 we started our little family. It's hard to believe that Justin and I have been married for 10 years! It has flown by. I just thought that it would be fun to show our little time line of our life together.
Our wedding announcement. Wow we look so young!! And we were so skinny!! I would love to be that thin again. But having babies made it so that it will never happen...o well. It was well worth it! Justin and I met on Super Bowl Sunday in 2000 and started dating exclusively on March 12th 2000. Justin proposed to me exactly one year later on March 12th 2001 by video. (I still have it).
6 months later we were married. I married my best friend. That was the best decision I ever made.
We bought our first house 1 week before we got married instead of going on a honeymoon. We went up to Island Park instead which was still a lot of fun. This is us in our first house just after we got all moved in.
We weren't ready to have kids yet but 1 1/2 years after we got married we got our first "kid". Belle was welcomed into our family. When we went to the breeders house I knew right off that Belle was the right dog for us. She came right up to me and would not leave my side. She was soooo cute and tiny! She was and is such a big part of our family.
In 2005 we decided that we were ready to move out of our first house and build a house. We had just found out that Home Depot was going to be going in close to our house and we just did not want to live that close to a busy street that was going to get even busier. So we put the house up for sell. We didn't have much time to really think cause 4 days after putting it up it sold. We moved into Justin's parents house and found a house and neighborhood that we thought would be perfect for us. It really is the perfect place. We love it here!!!
After being in this house for a year we decided that we were ready to add on to our little family. Brantley was born Sept 12th 2006. It was an adjustment for sure but the best thing that had ever happened to us. He has been such a joy to have in our family. (Man he was a cute little baby!!)
On March 12th 2009 we welcomed our last little member to our family. Lilley Camille. Man we love this little girl! (did you notice a similarity in dates? Got engaged on March 12th, married Sept 13 but it was supposed to be the 12th, Brantley was born on Sept 12th and Lilley was born on March 12th! I think we like the months Sept and March and the 12th day).
Best Friends for Life!!
Our family right now. It amazes me how much my life has changed in the last 10 years but it just seems like yesterday that we got married. I love my family and love my husband. It has been an amazing 10 years and I am looking forward to the next 10! Love you babe!! Thanks for marrying me. None of this would have been possible without you! We are so blessed to have such a great husband and father. Your the best!!
