Happy Anniversary!!!!

On December 29th, Ryan and I celebrated 7 years of marriage together. We have definitely had our fair share of trials, especially this year. I know the trials we have faced this year are making us even stronger as a couple though. :)

On our honeymoon in Tahoe, they left a Boyd Bear(moose) in the room for us and Ryan bought it for me. Every year since, Ryan has found a new Boyd Bear to surprise me with, and this year I got the one pictured below. I also go a new jewelry box. :) I have been using a card board box because I could never find a jewelry box that I just had to have. I LOVE the one Ryan got for me it is PERFECT!!!!

We went out to dinner at Casa Ramos, my favorite mexican restaurant. Then, we headed to Arden Fair mall to window shop. He is such a good sport!!!! After shopping, we went to the Cheesecake Factory for a piece of my favorite cheesecake, dulce de leche. :)

I just had to share a few pictures from our wedding day. I can't say everything went right that day. We spent too much time taking pictures with the photographer and my clothes and purse were locked inside the temple because they closed. :( We were able to pick up my clothes and purse the next day though on our way to Tahoe, so it all worked out ok. :) It also rained that day at the temple but the umbrella made a nice unexpected prop. :)

I wish I had some pictures of the reception to post. Jen, my sis, and my mom did a fantastic job decorating and making all of the food. :)



WOW...he is just so handsome, right!?!

My bouquet weighed a ton!!!! So, I had a hard time holding it up during all of the many different poses and pictures!!!!

Ryan helped me hold the bouquet in this next photo, thankfully. :)


Well, Ryan, we have had a tough year, but I know it is only going to get better. :) I can't wait to see what the future holds for us. I love the two beautiful children you have given me(i hope we get to add another). Thank you for being such a hard worker and always doing whatever it takes to allow me to stay home and be a mom. :) I know I can talk to you about anything. You are great listener!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!

Happy Seven Years, though 2008 hasn't been the best of years, without trials we may never know what strengths we have buried inside. 2009will be a year of renewal and growth. Can't wait to see what good things to come your way.
