Happy Anniversary!

Six years ago today, I married the man of my dreams! It has been a wonderful and fulfilling six years, although sometimes, it seems like it's been longer, I feel like we've been together forever and started this whole brand-new life that is just ours.

There has always been something about Kevin that has drawn me to him. He has always known how to make me smile and laugh. He's this wonderful mixture of someone who is so smart and intelligent, when he didn't play basketball for one year, thus missing out on an athletic scholarship, he was able to get an academic one. Not many athletes can say that, I know I couldn't. Yet at the same time, he is playful and will always bring out the kid in you if you let him.

Throughout the last six years, we have been incredibly blessed. We've had many up's (Our wonderful children, Great jobs, New homes, great vacations, good health) and have been very blessed to not experience too many downs in our young lives together (a couple surgeries, a febrile seizure when Halli was 20 months old, a car accident). I know some day that may change, but there is no one I would rather have by my side than him should we be dealt anything I can't handle.

So to commemorate our lives together thus far, I've put together a few photos of our time together. Starting with our wedding day, it was beautiful and perfect as far as I'm concerned. The only thing I would have changed is that I would have eaten some of the great food (so I've been told) at the reception. But I think alot of brides miss out on that one too.

Our carriage ride through downtown Salt Lake after the sealing.

Our engagement photo...isn't he handsome?

Had to get a shot with the basketball!:)

Coming out of the temple...Happy and in love!

Our honeymoon in Jamaica, Loving the bright blue water!

Horseback riding on the beach in Jamaica!

Cuddling on the boat on our way to go snorkeling. Tons of fun!

Our first cruise together with Kevins family, shortly after we were married, it was a Caribbean cruise and so much fun!


On the beach in Playa del Carmen during one of our stops on the cruise.

On the beach in Mazatlan Mexico during a family trip with My family, Halli was around one at the time, but didn't get to join us.

On the boat when we went deep sea fishing off Mexico. Kinda fun, mostly cause mom caught a sail fish, otherwise it was really hot and a little boring out there.


On a cat-a-mar-an off the coast of Hawaii with Kevin's parents. It was beautiful and we saw lots of dolphins:)

At Hanauma bay in Hawaii where we went snorkeling, it was Beautiful!

At the Polynesian cultural center on Oahu.

At Kevin's parent's house about a month before we welcomed Halli into our family!

Just staring at our new baby girl, the day we came home from the hospital. What a life changing experience!

Visiting the Grand redwoods in Northern California! Halli was around 11 months at the time.

Halli and dad enjoying the pool. She always was and still is a little waterbug!

Kevin's college Graduation! What a huge day that was, the first of his siblings to reach this goal and we were so proud of him!

Our little family shortly before we welcomed Peyton!

At the hospital with our second little girl.

Family photos taken just last year.

I love this photo, and I love this man!

Our most recent trip just last month to Myrtle beach. We love the beach and We love having our photos taken there as you can see. We have had lots of fun together, and I hope we will continue to long into our lives. I plan on being with this amazing man for eternity, I just hope he can put up with me that long!:)

I LOVE YOU KEVIN!

I noticed a theme amongst almost all these pictures.....water. Almost all of your pictures were centered near water. Very fun.

Happy Anniversary! Cool picture show!! I loved the honeymoon pics!!! Nice six pack, April! Wow! I hope Lexie makes her entrance today, too.

April said...

Sorry guys, no appearance today by lexie, maybe tomorrow, right? Yes, we love the beach, what can I say. And Kate, I totaly miss the six pack, and fear I'll never see it again, but the kiddos are worth it, right?

That was really cute. Sounds like you guys have pretty much been all over the place. You guys are so cute. I am glad you got married. I need to see you soon. It has been way too long.

Yeah I missed you at church and was hoping it was cause of the baby! But we will probably see you at the hospital on Wednesday with Sheri right? I loved seeing the old pics of you guys since I have only known you preggers. You are a hot mama!
