9 Years!!

So yesterday was mine and Dave's 9 year anniversary! So we went out to this way nice restaurant called McCormick's a seafood place that flies in fresh seafood everyday so they print off the menu the morning of so they know what kind of seafood they have. So we sat down and they gave us our menu and at the top they had printed off HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!! with the date next to it, it was so sweet. I just thought that it was romantic that he thought enough to mention it was our anniversary so they would do something special for us. I can't believe it's already been 9 years. YIKES!! I'd love to say it's been just pure bliss but lets get real here. We've definitely had our share of adversity but our love has proven to be stronger. In our short marriage we've been through a lot, but I'm glad that we've learned to take those challenges on together and face them head on and be there for each other no matter what life throws at us. Because life has definitely thrown us a few curve balls!! Dave has been a great husband all these years and he is a great dad to our kids. I love that he is always wanting to take them out hunting with him and involve them in all of his hobbies even if it's harder to plan with the kids going with him. He is very a very loved man in our lives!! I am very proud of all that he has done to give our family the best life we can have and in supporting me in pursuing my dreams. I love you babe!!!
