A beautiful decade…

Happy 10th Anniversary…

“His deep spoken voice, gentle touch and quiet ways swept me…”

On September 25th, 2000, we said our “I do’s.”  Nothing fancy.  Just us.  And an Arizona courthouse, judge, attorney and police officer (we needed witnesses!).  After our two minute ceremony commenced, we picked up our first wedding gift (a roll of toilet paper) then headed to celebrate.  Chili’s will always hold a special place in our hearts!  We were two young kids chasing dreams, living carefree and soaking up all that life had to offer us.

Ten years later…

I’ve witnessed his dream come true.  He is witnessing my dream come true.

I was there when he decided to close a chapter in his life that he had lived for the better part of 25 years.  He is here as my chapter continues to grow.

We patiently waited for more than three years before being blessed with the most precious twins, Bray & Addy!

We are parents.

We are best friends.

We have great times.  We have hard times.

We are each others greatest supporters.

We laugh.  We cry.  We fight.  We makeup.

We are husband and wife.

~ I love you, Ken Vining.  Happy 10 years, babe!
