2,920 days...plus 275... equals...

how many days Husband and I have been "together". Today at 4:30PM we celebrate eight years of marriage... or 2920 days...doesn't seem like that many when you look at it in "days"... but when I look over the past EIGHT years I think that it flew by and we grew SO much I never remember being without him.

Baby, you ARE my best friend. The only one that could "put up with me" and the only one I would WANT to. This is our last year as a little family of three... and the first year of our family that will now include Minnie Mouse. I am so excited to see you wrapped around a teenie tiny person's little finger and I can't think of a better "teammate" to take on this adventure.

You are the most kind and generous and giving person that I know (and that's saying A LOT considering we know the R "Clan" :) but you go out of your way to be nice to the under dog, to help those in need and to do it all while lookin' GOOOOOD :) I think you are more handsome today than the day I married you and it is true what you tell me... you ARE FUNNY and keep me laughing on an almost daily basis. :) I miss you like crazy when you are not around and my favorite time of the day is any time that I'm next to you.

I have a feeling the adventures are going to get crazier, more fun, and the ride is going to get wild but there is no one that I trust more to keep God as the center of our family and to lead us wherever you see fit. I love you HUSBAND... thanks for picking me.
