4 Years of Wedding Bliss

Tomorrow marks 4 years of marriage for Kelly and I. I sat down today thinking about what has all happened in 4 years, and to be honest, I got a headache. I mean, WOW!

These last 4 years feels more like a decade. Most likely because our lives have done a complete 180 the minute we said "I do".

- we finished renovating our house. We started when we got engaged but in these last 4 years we have been able to complete an overhaul on the upstairs and downstairs, ripped up our entire backyard and built 1 patio, 2 decks and all new sod, then came our exterior which is 90% complete.

- we changed career paths. Went from owning our own business, working for someone else, losing his job because of receivership, and then starting our own company again. We went from struggling for money to having enough that we don't have to stress.

- we sold our building that in my opinion, was just holding us back from life. It has given us freedom in more than 1 way.

- We have 2 children in our home, 1 in my belly, and 3 in heaven. We went from 0 children to essentially 6, which we will have for an eternity.

All I have to say, is with all this change, we have done it together- and quite smoothly I can proudly say. We compliment each other well. We work well as a team. And I think we made a wise choice in deciding each other for forever.

I know the next 4 years, can NOT be as eventful as the first 4 years. For that I am grateful. Our first years of marriage have been a whirlwind and it's been an adventure so far. My wish for the next 4 years is some stability. Some calmness. Some normality. And we will share in that together as well.

Our hearts are full. Our home is full. Our pockets are full (enough). Our cup is full. 

Life is good. Marriage is good.
