9 YEARS?!#@!

Darren & I celebrated our 9 year Wedding Anniversary on the 13th of November. WOW! I am amazed at all that has happened in a short/long nine years. We've purchased two homes, had three adorable girls, finished a MBA, been to too many funerals, and a few other wild adventures. Darren always says, "we deserve each other". I think that means that we are able to love each other and be annoyed with each other and still make things work. I love Darren with all my heart. He is the rock that keeps me focused. He makes me crazy sometimes (a lot of the times), but we're always able to make it work. Yes, we banter (way too much), we argue in public, we torment, and we love. It may be a crazy way, but it works for us :) Our relationship summed up: Somedays we love each other, somedays we like each other, and somedays....

Wow! CONGRATULATIONS on the anniversary! Fun times for sure! What did you do to celebrate??? You and Darren are so cute together, you crack me up! I love your relationship!
You are so festive! I love the Turkeys on your blog... I skipped right past it, and went for Christmas! It's going to be here before we know it! Have a Happy Thanksgiving in St. George if I don't talk to you before then!

I can think of sooo many words to finish that sencance for you! Congrats on 10 years. It's always been a great accomplishment, but even more so in this day and age. Love you both!

Congrats! Lee woke up on the 17th, looked at me and said "Oh, by the way, Happy Anniversary. We were in San Diego and starting to plan our day and I totally forgot. It was # 36 for us. A long time, but we're still together. Love you both. Laurie

So HI! I got your cute cute Christmas card. Man your girls are getting so old. And I loved how your last question was about you not having a #4 baby. Anyway . . . just thought I'd stop by! Happy Anniversary a little bit ago!
Love,

Hey Tara,

9 years, only 2 years behind me. I received your Christmas card. We need to talk more. I feel like I hardly know you anymore. A new minivan, was that for real? Talk to you soon.

Love ya
