3 Whole Years!

Chris and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary yesterday and we can hardly believe the time has passed so quickly. We didn't do anything too exciting, but we went out to a very nice dinner and saw a movie (we just realized we hadn't been to the movie theater in 2 years!). The movie was terrible and I wouldn't recommend it (The Happening), but at least we spent some time together and actually felt like we were on a "date."


In our three years as husband and wife, here are a few things that have happened:
*I started my Master's Degree 1 month into our marriage and actually graduated in 2007
*Chris changed jobs
*I taught 57 first graders how to read (or at least gave it my best effort)
*Chris has been through 4 different vehicles (5, if you count when we were dating)
*Our "hairstyles/cuts" have changed :)
*We had a baby!
*We bought a van! (LOVE it!)
*We are having another baby!



And most importantly, we both have made lots of sacrifices to make sure we are supporting and doing what is best for our family. We have learned together what it means to be a family and how important our love for one another plays into the dynamics of our family. Thanks to all of you who have supported and encouraged us and have led by example. We are truly blessed!

Congratulations, Chris and Jessalyn. Thanks for posting that picture. It made vividly remember just how beautiful you were and how incredibly happy you were on that day (and still are, of course!). Glad you could spend some time together!
