Today we celebrate 10 years of marriage. That’s a big deal.

We got married when we were just 21 years old. We were babies. So to say we have changed a lot in the last 10 years is an understatement. But here we are. We have made it through what I would consider to be some of the hardest years. But we are here. We are here only by the grace of God. He is the reason we have made it this far.

We have had our ups and downs but I know that the good times and the bad have shaped us into who we are today. I know life will bring more challanges but we will make it through them together.

 Here are a few pictures from our 10 year trip we took in February. We had the opportunity to build houses with a team of people from our church in Roatan, Honduras. After that portion of the trip was over our church friends left and we enjoyed a few additional days on the island together.

Thanks for begin so patient with me. I am obsessive about things that shouldn’t matter, I am a planner and I am a perfectionist. Thanks you for looking past all the things that are totally opposite of your nature and for loving me anyways!

Marriage is work… really hard work. It’s choosing daily to love. It’s letting the little things go (which is so hard…remember perfectionist). It’s hard but in the end the work pays off. Here’s to many more wonderful years ahead. I can’t wait to see where the next 10 years takes us! Love you babe!
