7 years & counting.....

So yesterday Nick and I celebrated 7 years together! (the above picture was within the first year of our marriage!) Wow, how time has flown by. It's one of those things that are bittersweet - bitter because it means I'm not 20 anymore! Sweet because our marriage is so much more now than it was 7 years ago. We got off to such a rough start that both of us admit that if we hadn't been Christians and divorce was never an option- we totally would've been divorced within the first 5 months! YES, it was that bad! But it also proves/shows the redeeming power of God! He has made us both into better people through being married to each other. We balance each other out so much better now! Before it was polar opposites! Now it's more 50/50! I am so thankful I married a man of God. A lot of the reasons it was so difficult for us in the beginning is because I was so stubborn! NO you say, not you! hee hee! God has used Nick to help mold me and shape me into who I am today. I am definitely a better woman because I married him. So cheers to marriage! Cheers to being married 7 yrs! And Cheers to 70 more years together! God willing! I love you so much Nick and I really am so thankful that I married you!

We were so excited we made it to year 3! lol It started getting better from there on out!

I tried to look for a recent picture of just the two of us and there are none!  So I will work on getting one!
