It’s our anniversary!

NewProToday marks our 11th wedding anniversary! Yippee! You all know that dearest hubby isn’t home, but i am still celebrating today because it is indeed a very special day.  I am dedicating this post to him with the hope that he’ll be able to read it.

Knox We first met here under that very special tree. Do you remember? Your friend was “checking me out,” but my eyes met yours instead…

whitedressWe exchanged our vows and since then,

smilingwe’ve been inseparable, exploring the world together and enjoying life’s simple pleasures.

Zion We welcomed our angel, baby Z into our lives and what a blessing he has been to us! Thank you so much for him my sweet!

  12. Happy Anniversary! Eleven years together is quite an accomplishment. I wish you and your husband many more happy years together.

    We celebrated our seven year anniversary yesterday (married for 3) and it is a strange thing--it feels like the time has flown by but I also can't remember life without him.

  21. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This is so exciting! You two have been together for so long and are so strong in this relationship. You both are so strong. I admire the both of you. I'm so grateful that he is safe and that you are managing while he's gone with little baby Z. He is perfect. The cutest little baby boy. I'm glad that things are going well. It's such an amazing thing to celebrate. Love. Patience. Trust & Faith.

    I hope that you're having a good day!
