Well, Bryan and I celebrated our Anniversary on the 15th. We have been together for 8 years and married for 6. We married two years to the day after meeting. It has been a whirlwind 6 years with lots of laughs and adventures and a few tears. But definitely the best years of my life so far. Here are a few of the highlights of our time together:
- We've lived in two states and have moved 6 times in 6 years.
- We've sent out change of address info in our Christmas card four years in a row (YIKES!).
- We've adopted two furry kitties.
- We've traveled extensively.
- We've welcomed our first child, Shawn Austin, on 7/28/07. He has been a wonderful addition!
- We've climbed 4 14ers (mountains in Colorado over 14,000 ft in elevation).
- We've been in 8 weddings (not including our own, 6 for Kristen and 2 for Bryan).
- We've worked together at 3 different jobs, and have now started our own business (Thompson Photography).
- We've each graduated twice (Undergrad and Masters programs at Harding University).
