10 Years of Wedded Bliss

Bill and I have been married for 10 years today. This seems like a long time to be married, but it has gone by so fast! When I think about all of the things that have happened in the last 10 years, it amazes me. I thought I would share some pictures of our life together. We have been married 10 years, but have actually been together for 17 years. Looking through these pictures made me laugh. I have found notes that I wrote him in high school and letters that we exchanged in college. Tyler was amazed that we actually wrote to each other. In his mind he thought e-mail would be so much easier.

This is our first picture together. We were on a Mission Trip to Colorado. He was my Missions Leader. That is a Hyper-Color shirt he has on, remember those??

In this picture I am 15 years old. Oh-My!


Bill proposed after Christmas Eve Candlelight Service in 1997.

We were married in El Paso surrounded by all of our friends on June 6, 1998. It was an absolutely amazing night!

Our life together has been tremendously blessed. I knew I had found a treasure the moment I met him. He is the best Daddy and my very best friend!

I am not the biggest Blogging kind of guy, but, thought I would chime in on this one. Jennifer and Billy (as I still call him) have given us so much joy in life you will never imagine. That was until they gave me those two boys. I can honestly say that MY grandson's are THE best and don't look down on all the other grandparents that say differently, just stating the facts. I look at these picturers and at the time had no idea how much happiness these two would give me. You guys go and celebrate and let me babysit(I still have a lot to teach those guys). Ilove you guys and hope you the best.
