A Decade of Marriage




For those of you who were at our wedding on June 6 in Ocala, FL it may be hard to believe it was ten years ago - it's hard for us to believe! It some ways it feels like yesterday but I look at all that's happened and I can't believe we've packed it into ten years time. We've lived in six homes in four cities, added a Bachelors degree (me) and a Masters degree (Scott). I've had four jobs and Scott's now spent two years at his first call. Obviously, our crowning achievement has been the three little ones with whom we now share our space. From the beginning I'd hoped we'd have several children at this point in our lives but I couldn't have imagined what they'd do to us - how they'd turn me into a semi-decent housekeeper, make us put food on the table instead of eating out constantly. I knew Scott was an amazing man when I married him and we knew we wanted kids but I hadn't really thought through what kind of dad he'd be. It's been an incredible journey to make with him. I love that we knew eachother at 18 and 19 years old and were wonderful friends and I love that now, 10 years in, we can say the same thing except that now we have so much more binding us together!


As a super-huge surprise Scott planned a trip for us to Las Vegas to celebrate our anniversary! I knew something was going on but had no idea where we were headed and couldn't have imagined flying across the country with him, staying at The Bellagio and how nice it would be to sit across a quiet table, eating a wonderful meal and enjoying the time together! Here are some pictures of our time together (without the kids there we only took about 10 pictures!)




On our last night, we spotted these two celebrities playing high-stakes Blackjack. It's not a great picture but see if you can identify them ...





It's Ray Romano and Keven James!

Oh wow, do you see how Kevin James is looking right at you in that picture?!

He must be so happy for you both on your anniversary!

Okay, he might not be, but I am. Congrats!
