7th Wedding Anniversary

Hard to believe it's already been 7 years but according to the calendar today is the day.

How Long Has It Been:
  • 2,555 Days
  • 3,679,200 Minutes
What do I remember about 7 years ago:
  • Very little, do you know how old I am and that I have three (3) kids under the age of 4.  I am just lucky to remember what day it is and to put pants on before I walk out the door
  • Ecclesiastes 4:8-12 - There was a man all alone; he had neither son nor brother.  There was no end to his toil, yet his eyes were not content with his wealth. "For whom am I tolling." he asked.  This too is meaningless - a miserable business!  Two are better than one, because they have a good return of their labor:  If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm.  But how can one keep warm alone?  Though one may be overpowered,  two can defend themselves.  A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.  
  • An answered prayer and how trusting in God will always produce good fruit 
  • How lucky I was to have found someone as great as LA
  • How hot it was waiting behind the doors in the church waiting to walk in - it was the final test and I knew I was committed to her because I wouldn't stand in that heat box for anyone but her - I could have left and gone to the house to get in the a/c.
  • Playing golf in the morning before the wedding  
  • The rehearsal dinner at Wescott Plantation with family and friends.
  • See LA walk through the doors of the sanctuary (even through through a timing gaff, we  saw each other in the hallway beneath the church) - priceless
  • Making a covenant with each other and God
  • Exchanging rings as a sign of our love for each other
  • Pictures, Pictures and more Pictures (which I am glad we now have)
  • A big party to celebrate that they called a reception with all our family and friends and it was hot, hot, hot.
  • 1st dance with my wife to this song

What Big Happened In The Last Year:
  • We had another child on April 23, 2012 - Ansleigh Grace
  • We went to Las Vegas, NV
I wouldn't change a thing over the past 7 years.  My love for LA is the same as it was that day she walked into my office (even if I did have to cut her short because of a basketball game - sometimes you have to play hard to get - wink, wink).  She's a great wife, a great mother to our 3 kids and most importantly - my best friend.

I am looking forward spending the rest of my days here on this earth with her by my side and all the adventures that we will embark upon - some planned and most that just happen.  Laughing in the good times, crying the bad and always together till the end.
