13 Years of Wedded Bliss!!!


Danny and I celebrated our 13th wedding anniversary on May 2. It's hard to believe that we have been together 13 years already. It feels more like 5, except we have 5 beautiful children that tell us its been longer! :) The time has flown. I can't wait to see what the next 13 years bring. Life with Danny is so much fun and full of color and exciting possibilities! I love him so much! (mushy, I know)
Our anniversary is made even more special because we get to share it with two of our favorite people in the world, Matt and Rachel!! Love you guys!

Happy Mother's Day to all of my loving, selfless, wise and beautiful family & friends that show the world how wonderful it is to be a Woman!!

"I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with perfectly manicured nails.

I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking the kids to scout camp.

I want to be there with grass stains on my shoes from mowing my neighbors lawn.

I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbors children.

I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden.

I want to be there with the children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder.

I want the Lord to know that I was really here and that I really lived."
