Today, Andy and I have been married for 8 years.
What I remember about our wedding day:
- Bright, blue sky with absolutely NO clouds (which didn't help with pictures!)
- Lots of great family and friends.
- Being totally comfortable in my dress and shoes.
- Wishing I had done my hair and makeup differently, but not really caring at all!
- Being TOTALLY pumped that I made the decision not to have a reception (Best. Idea. Ever!)
- Thinking how stellar the food at The Lion House was.
- Wondering who those 2 uninvited people were at the luncheon?
- Being so excited for the luncheon to be over so I could go to the salon and get a haircut (while Andy got a massage).
- Sleeping on the airplane to California and being wicked excited to go to Brazil (which didn't end up happening, whoopsie!)
- Overall, I remember that it was a wonderful, relaxed, stress-free day that everyone enjoyed!
Here is what the past 8 years has offered us:
- 5 homes in 2 states: Orem (UT)(8 months), Jersey City (NJ)(2 years), Woodbridge (NJ)(1.5 years), Pleasant Grove (UT)(3 years) and Provo (UT)(7 months so far).
- 2 awesome kids
- COUNTLESS hairstyles for Kristi
- 2 hairstyles for Andy (zipper, and short)(that first one is for you, Kami)
- Lots of sickness (like Andy right now), and LOTS of health.
- 1 surgery
- Lots of great travels: Greece, Israel, Brazil, Hawaii, England, California, all up and down the east coast, and of course ATLANTIC CITY!!!! (that last one is a joke, AC blows)
- 2 pet birds that no one but me really cares about.
- A lot of tears, but more importantly, a lot of laughs!
Thanks for staying married to me, Andy. It's a tough job, I know! I love you tons and look forward to many more years full of good times!!
Happy Anniversary!
And thanks for the door knob!! ;-)

Cute post!
I'm might have to steal this idea for our "anniversary post" (which is this Friday).
You don't like Atlantic City? I've never been but I saw a Jersey Shore where they were all excited to go there. It looks like a cheap gross place to me.
Happy anniversary to you two!
Happy Anniversary!
You sure the two uninvited people at the luncheon weren't the Sharples? :) I remember that day vividly...especially the yummy food and your beautiful cake/fall colors! You know what, you don't look old enough to have been married for 8 years with 2 kids! Happy (belated) anniversary!
YOU.HAD.THE.AWESOMEST.WEDDING.
No reception....if my husband knew you were like that, he probably wouldhave wanted to date you! ;)
Congratulations you two lovebirds! What a wonderful legacy you have began. I'm all interested in AC now....!
Congratulations to you both!!! Your special day was beautiful and the wedding luncheon was great. Doesn't seem like 8 years ago but you've done much in that time. We wish you the best!!!
