Our Aluminum/Tin Anniversary!

HAPPY 10TH ANNIVERSARY SWEETIE!!!

Traditionally, this is the aluminum/tin anniversary. However, the Modern table states that it is the "diamond jewelry" anniversary. (I am hoping for the latter.)
Anyway, we are celebrating 10 years of marriage as of today!!!
Here is little of what the past 10 years have brought our way.


December 1994, our first Christmas. We had only been dating a few weeks, but he already told me we would be married someday. I knew he would be my husband after our first kiss, but I dared not say anything, until he said it first, of course. ; )








August 12, 1995 (just 8 months of dating and only 20 years old) we were married. A small, tasteful wedding, but very romantic. Truly the happiest day of my life, up until then.








May 30, 2000, first baby joined our family. After 5 glorious years as a duo, we were now a trio.







November 10, 2001, the twins graced us with their preemie presence. Just 17 months after the baby #1, our family grows to 5 (which is as large as it will ever be!).








September 2004, even after moving 1000 miles away (Texas to DC, a HUGE move) and making it through some pretty rough and tough times, I am more in love with this man than I ever thought, 10 years ago, I could have been. I only hope we can stick it out a few more decades. I LOVE YA HONEY-BEAR!!! Your are the best thing that ever happened to me! Thanks for, well, everything! XOXO
