15 Years ago I married my best friend and the best part? 15 years later I'm still married to my best friend! Sometimes it just feels like yesterday when I said "I do" and yet when I look back, we've needed 15 years for all we've done together! Here are some of the 'moments' we've shared:
- Both graduated from college
- Lived 9 different places (5 different towns)
- Became parents of two beautiful daughters
- Grieved the loss of Mike's mom and sister and five grandparents
- Welcomed 9 nieces and nephews into our lives
- Purchased a boat, I learned to waterski, he learned to wakeboard
- Discovered we liked mountain biking, Frisbee golf and geocaching
- Owned 4 cars (cavalier, taurus, xterra and suburban)
- Owned 3 tents, lost track of number of camping trips
- Owned two dogs, one hamster and one turtle
- Traveled to/thru 16 states, (MI, MO, OK, IN, IL, WI, MI, OH, PA, NY, VA, TN, KY, NC, KS, CO plus Canada & Mexico)
- Attended five churches (dozens more visited)
- 7 jobs for me, 2 for Mike (plus temporary jobs)
- Only debt is our mortgage
Then there are all the those little things shared that weave into the fabric of life. So I wonder how many times we've:
- eaten ice cream cones
- taken walks
- watched movies
- shared meals
- travelled to visit family
- stolen kisses
- told jokes
- shared laughter
- argued and made up
- found a middle ground
- gone on picnics
- roasted marshmallows
- he held me as I cried
- made love
- enjoyed silent moments
- been grateful for this life that we call "ours"!
How blessed I am to share life's amazing journey with Mike!
