One decade ago...

began the best part of my life.  I am so grateful for the man I married. Your dad surpassed everything I hoped for in a husband and a father, and I am so aware of Gods provision for my life in that.  He knew I would need more than what I just asked for, and I am eternally blessed. I love the couple that we are and how we really compliment each other with our strengths and weaknesses.  AND speaking of weaknesses, we are both even falling apart together!  We both currently have plantar fasciitis right now and its rather hysterical to me how we are approaching it. One more careless, and the other (eh hem, who happens to be more medically knowledgeable) more cautious. But in things like that we find our ways to balance things out and our lives together have been fun and adventurous. There have been some hardships, but all the joys have outweighed them all. I love where we are now and  I couldn't love our family more. I just love doing life along with your dad.  I wouldn't want it any other way. I hope for many more and healthier decades ahead!

Our plans for a 10 day trip to Italy had to be slightly adjusted to a long weekend to the spectacular Cape Cod.

We watched my favorite part of creation together
We took a day trip to Nantucket 
We rode our bikes along the coast of Martha's Vineyard
and I watched your dad jump off of Jaws Bridge, more than once I'm afraid to say (rolled eyes emoji goes here) 
This was special because Chloe loves Cape Cod potato chips.
And just another highlight I should add from the year, is that dad, along with Dave, did both his first mini and olympic triathlon! I am so proud of him!

And while I couldn't be convinced due to the fear of drowning, I've done my share and the dress still fits!

I love us...

and ours.

Happy 10 Year Anniversary!
