Anniversary Bliss

Written by Rebecca

I am in love with two different guys. They are both adorable and sweet and smell good. They both make me laugh. They both cause me to loose my breath when I think about how much love I have for them. Michael and Connor. Connor and Michael.

It is not lost on me how blessed I am. I now get to celebrate the 6th anniversary with the man who snuck into a court room with me six years ago and married me. I will never forget what he said: "Most men are walking out of here free today." Well listen buddy, you're not going to be free for a long, long time! My great grandma lived to be over 100 years old, and your grandfather is turning 94. We've got good genes, you and me. So, you are mine forever!

We have had such a wonderful and exciting run. We've traveled to 13 different countries, and countless states together. We have been skydiving, hang gliding, paragliding, canyoning, kayaking, canoeing, spelunking, rock climbing, bouldering, hiking, glacier hiking, bike riding, horseback riding. We've moved 8 times, had four pets, and gained two degrees. I'm so thankful to be married to a man who loves adventures just as much as I do. Yet, we are just as happy eating cereal for dinner and watching tv.

And, we've started a family. I never thought I could have loved Michael more. But then, Michael helped me through the hardest thing I've ever done in my life and we became parents together. Once again, I can't imagine how I could possible be more in love.

Here's JUST A FEW pictures of some of my favorite memories of the past 6 years. There are many many more that I would looove to include but, you know, there's only so much bandwidth.
