Happy Anniversary to us!!




On Thursday March 19, Tim and I will have been married for 15 years! WOW it doesn't really seem that long but then again I can't really remember life without him! He is the most perfect husband in every way. I could go on and on about him but I will just stop at that! We have been contemplating for a while on what to do for our 15th annivesary. At this point in our lives, we are not financially able to take a trip to Paris or cruise the ocean blue. However, we did decide to get each other something that we needed and wanted. My need and want was a Bosch mixer! I have been wanting this and researching mixers for what seems like months! When my dear friend Natalie gave me the starter for a 30 year old sourdough bread this week, I really had to get down to making a decision. I was watching a used one on Ebay and the auction went up to $50 less than what a new one would be! Tim just made an executive decision and told me to just buy the new one! I am sooooo very excited! Now I will be watching every day for the FedEx truck!!

Tim's need and want was a new grill! Last week when the weather was nice, Tim picked up a tank of propane so we could grill out for the 1st time this year. To his dismay, when he hooked up the gas and tried to light it, it didn't work. The burners were corroded and the grill was just weathered and a big mess! I have to say that the grill has definitely done its part for out family! It has weathered many years at out home! Sooooo, Tim went out and bought a new one! He has already used it twice and given it a name! "Steely" is now a part of our family!

So after 15 awesome years of marriage, 4 beautiful children, and countless blessings, we celebrate our love and eternal companionship!
