Greg and I just recently celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary. We have actually been together for 10 years this summer. We started dating the summer before my senior year and before his senior year of college. We are so blessed as a couple and as a family. We learn more everyday what it means to truly be ONE in everything we do. I do believe, the number one thing that I have learned in the past 8 years is the true meaning of the greatest commandments. First to love God with all that you are and to love your neighbor, or husband, as yourself. I have discovered that marriage works so much easier and there is more peace when you treat each other the same way you want to be treated. Imagine that! A teaching of Jesus.... and it does work!! It works with parenting too!
As part of our celebration, Greg and I were blessed to have some friends take the girls overnight so we could go out to eat and get some rest. We had a great time at one of the restaurants over at the Lake of the Ozarks. It overlooked the lake and it was a beautiful evening. The next morning we enjoyed breakfast a Bob Evans and did a little shopping. We also pulled out the old VHS tape and watched our wedding with the girls. They thought that was pretty neat, for a few minutes anyway. Its amazing how much has changed since then, everything that is, except our love for each other!
I love you Greg! Happy Anniversary!
