7 Years!

(This pic was taken on our Honeymoon in Catalina 7 yrs ago) Although our Anniversary was on July 13th, I still had to get this post up even though its a little late. I just want to take a little time and think about all the reasons why I love my husband. He may not be a perfect man, but he IS perfect for me. We have truly grown throughout these last 7 years, and I love this man more today then I did the day I married, and I thought that on July 13th 2002 I couldnt have loved him more. Happy Anniversary Babe, I love you so much!

Reasons why this man is truly amazing....

37. He has always thought so highly of his mom and sisters. He loves them so much and thinks they are VERY special women. I knew this before we got married and I thought that if he thought this way of his Mother and sisters, that he would be an amazing husband.

38. His lips....he has the best lips in the world!
