7 WHOLE YEARS!

The big day!
(I had the scan the pic above onto my computer. I don't have the cd's of my wedding pics at my house. My mom has them. Bummer! So I had to get the first wedding shot off my photogs website and the second one I scanned in. :) Whatever works right.


Us today!


Wow, 7 whole years ago my husband and I said "I do". We were young. Just a mere 20 years old. We knew what we were doing, we knew what we wanted. We may have been young and we may have been immature. But we knew we loved each other.
I can't imagine my life without him. I am so glad that we got married when we did. I'm so glad that we have gone through all the good and bad of the relationship we have had. Its all made us the loving husband and wife we are now.
I love my sweet Julian more than words can express. He is my love, my soulmate, my best friend.
I am so proud and happy to be celebrating this wonderful 7 year anniversary with him (12 years dating). We are lucky to have one another and I thank God daily for connecting our lives the way that he has.
He is a fabulous out of this world great father and husband. I'm so grateful!

I look forward to spending at least 80 more anniversary's with him :)

(Some of these pics are from about 3 years ago. any earlier and I don't have them on my computer. So I can't share them. But here are the last 3-4 years.)








This one is from our sixth anniversary. I was 5 months pregnant with our angel Coop.


This year!

What a sweet post! I just found your blog through another. It seems like we have a little in common. Me & my twin sister also struggled with PCOS. I was off birth control for 2 1/2 years & took all of the cycles of clomid that I could. I was going to get my tubes tested last May with a fertility specialist & I was pregnant instead! I have a 6 month old baby boy named "Jarrett". My twin sister who also struggled found out 2 months later that she was pregnant too - also with a baby boy! God IS good :)

BTW - Your little boy is adorable!
