Anniversary Mushiness...
Mushy post warning...recipe coming in a little bit.

Oh and to all of you that posted Happy Anniversary to us yesterday, thank you! I was kind of blown away with the kind words and messages!

The realization of the passing of time has been pretty strong for me lately.


Yesterday marked mine and Tony's 17th wedding anniversary.

(Life was a little bit different in the adventure department. This was taken after a caving trip. I'm in the red shirt and Tony in the green shirt behind me...19 years old!)

We have been together for 18 years...in some ways it feels like yesterday and in others it seems so long ago. We have been through so much together. We were definitely kids when we got married, but I believe we were always old souls. So many people thought we were crazy, but I'm happy to say that while we may have been young, naive and a little crazy, it was the smartest decision I have ever made!

I think we've done some pretty amazing things including creating a pretty amazing family!

Life is not always perfect or how you think it will be, but looking back, even through the hard times, I realize that it doesn't really get any better than this. I am incredibly thankful and I feel like the luckiest girl alive to have these amazing people in my life. Life is constantly changing and now instead of being a little scared of that change, I look forward to the next adventure!

Best quote on finding the one by Mac McGuff from Juno...
Look, in my opinion, the best thing you can do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you, the right person is still going to think the sun shines out your ass. That's the kind of person that's worth sticking with. 

Yep, that's what I got.
