Our 8th Anniversary

Pin It

Here's a countdown of some of what Cale and I have been up to the last eight years:

8
Amazing years of marriage filled with laughter, tears, joys, frustrations, trust, and love with many more years to come!

7
Moves. From Rexburg, Idaho to Riverdale, Utah. From Riverdale, Utah to Mexico City, Mexico. From Mexico City, Mexico to Ogden, Utah. From Ogden, Utah to Westland, Michigan. From Westland, Michigan to Lincoln Park, Michigan. From Lincoln Park, Michigan to St. Louis, Missouri. From St. Louis Missouri to Clarkston, Michigan.
6
Years in Michigan. We can't believe it's been this long! Michigan has been very good to us with wonderful friends, a successful career for Cale where I have the blessing of staying home, two homes with many home-improvement projects, and now close family.

5
Exotic vacations. Mexico City, Mexico. Acapulco, Mexico. Cancun, Mexico. Hawaii, USA. Mormon Disneyland (our term for church history sites, does this count as exotic?). Not to mention trips to California, Wyoming, Utah, Chicago, Kentucky, North Carolina, Texas, Colorado, Ohio, Canada, Niagara falls, New York, St. Louis, and I'm probably forgetting something.

4
Parents that have supported, loved, and encouraged us and our marriage since day one!

3
Beautiful children. We are the luckiest parents to have been blessed with Averie, Kempton, and Brenna. They are our greatest accomplishments, our pride and joy and we love them so much.

2
Years spent together at Weber State College in Ogden, Utah where we supported one another through poverty, hard work and determination, and were so excited to graduate together and see what or life had in store.
1
26.2 marathon. This may not seem like an accomplishment for the both of us, but it required an intense amount of support and patience on Cale's part. He was my number one fan and I could not have accomplished this goal without him.

0
Regrets!

Happy Anniversary, Cale. I love you!
