3 years of Wedded Bliss!

Today was our 3 year anniversary. Three years ago today we said our vows and made a promise to each other and to God to love one another through thick and thin, to support each other in all we do and to honor one another. The past 3 years have been so exciting and so much fun, we've also had a couple of surprises along the way (ie. Riley and Lincoln :)) but I wouldn't change a thing. I have married the man of my dreams, the man God created for me and each and every day we spend together I am more and more convinced of that!! I am thankful for the husband and father Ty is, but most importantly for the spiritual leader and servant of Chirst that he is. I am thankful for our relationship and am so excited to see what the next 60+ years has in store for us!

I was so excited for today--Ty had called my mom a few days ago and asked her if she could watch the kids so we could go to dinner. I know, it doesn't sound extremely exciting, but this is the first time we've been out alone since Riley was 3 months old!! (Yes--it's been 20 months since we've been out alone) We just never had anyone to watch her! So I was pumped! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE having my kids with us but it's nice for us to reconnect as a couple and get a little time to ourselves.

Ty came home from work and had brought me beautiful flowers and an ice cream cake from Dairy Queen--those are my favorite!! We couldn't wait until tonight so Ty, Riley and I all had a piece before dinner. Then, for dinner we went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner, it was great and Ty knows how much I love my steak! We went walking the mall afterwards and were going to go to a movie but decided to skip it. (I haven't been feeling very well and I was so exhausted) Riley and Lincoln were sound asleep, so spent time chatting and watching the Olympics together.

A picture of us, today, on our 3rd anniversary. (Yes, my hair is naturally curly, Ty loves it like that and I hate it, so I thought I'd wear it curly for him)
