5 Fruitful Years!





August 20th marked our 5th wedding anniversary! It's definitely hard to believe it's been so long. Time has gone by so quickly. I guess the saying is right, time does fly when you're having fun. "Fun" is exactly the word I would use to describe the past five years. Even with Matt's frequent job changes, what seemed, at the time, like my endless schooling, and unexpected financial setbacks along the way (i.e. Matt's car completely dying shortly after we had just purchased my new car, the realization that we'd literally be paying off my school loans until we're middle-aged, unforeseen plumbing issues, etc) we've been able to keep laughing and enjoying one another.

In fact, we've enjoyed each other so much, we brought a little one into the world. The past year of being parents has only brought Matt and I closer together. So close that we're now expecting number 2 in January! Hey, I told you we're having fun! :)

So, to celebrate our anniversary, we decided to go to out to eat and then catch a movie. We had lunch at a restaurant without Caleb. This was a big step since Caleb has never been left with anyone other than one of us until this point. My parents were happy to help and of course Caleb did just fine. We went to the movies later that evening, something we haven't done since I was pregnant with Caleb. Other than the outrageous popcorn prices and the frigid theater (wow, I sound like an old lady), we had a great time!

Here's to another 5 years of waking up next to the one I love and waiting in anticipation for him to return from work Monday through Friday. I love him more everyday even when I think it must be impossible to love one person any more than I already do. Happy Anniversary my love!!
