Seven years ago today I married my best friend and my love! Thank you for asking me to be your wife!
Seven years ago, I knew I loved you but I love you even more today for the Godly husband and father you have become. I love reminiscing about where we've been and things we've done. Here are a few of the highlights of the past seven years...
- June 21, 2003- We said our "I Do's".
- June 29, 2003- We moved to Chicago to start our "new life together"...remember I cried almost the whole way for leaving behind everything I knew but was still excited for what was to come.
- February 2004- We moved to Victoria, TX...we said, "We'll give this place a year and then we're out of here!" Haha...were we wrong, God obviously has other plans because we are still here!
- June 2004- We bought our first house. (Happy 1 Year Anniversary!)
- October 2004- We adopted our first "child"...our dog, "Xoche"!
- April 2005- We bought a new boat! (Happy 2nd Anniversary!) We spent endless hours on the water with our new toy...we also had several insurance claims to show for it, thanks to all of the stumps in Coletto Creek!
- January 2006- We expanded our family by adopting our second "child"...our dog, "Nikki"!
- June 2006- We took a cruise to the Bahamas & Mexico (Happy 3rd Anniversary!)

- November 6, 2008- Positive pregnancy test!!!!! We were so excited, we told everyone we knew!
- November 11, 2008- We experienced heartbreak by having the pregnancy end in a miscarriage.
- December 2008- We were nervously excited to know that I was pregnant again!
- April 2009- We learned that we would be having a baby girl! I cried and you were grinning from ear to ear!
- June 2009- I was "BIG" and pregnant so we celebrated our 6th Anniversary by purchasing our video camera to make sure we could capture as many memories as we could as our little girl grows.
August 14, 2009- We welcomed our sweet gift from God, Sydnee Reese, into the world! - June 18-19, 2010- We enjoyed a weekend get-away together to the Escondida Resort in the Texas Hill Country!
