4,207,680 Minutes

70,128 Hours = 2,922 Days and Nights = 96 Months= 8 Years Married!

We made it over the hump and past the itches and still we're going strong!

These years have been full of life, learning and growth. Not just saying that as a cliche. Looking back, there is so much that I thought I knew, now I see how much I don't know, how much learning I still have to do. This is true when it comes to myself, to Devin and I, to raising children, everything.

I found out there is so much more life to be had after "Happily Ever After". Eight years, 96 months... 3 states, 7 moves, 3 kids, 2 businesses later... He's the only one I want by my side. We are more seasoned, and have more realistic expectations, and I know now how hard and how sweet life can be.

I love him way more now.

We celebrated by taking a weekend away together. Gratefully, my dad came to watch the kids and we took off. Since I planned it, we did some of my favorite things. We hiked in Shenandoah, biked through apple orchards and beautiful country, and stayed far away from everything in a little Bed and Breakfast. It was a short trip, but I loved it. It was a great escape. Looking forward to many more great years with this guy!
