to shawn on our 11th anniversary











we have been married for eleven years. i can hardly believe it. but yet i couldn't see it any other way. it seems that we have always been together. and i love that.

i love that you are my husband. i love that you are the father to our children. i could not have asked for a better dad for them. i love that you want to spend time with us and that being a family is very important to you. i love that you include the kids in everything you do. they truly love and adore you. what could be better.

i love that you work hard for us. you provide us with everything we need and even a few extras. i am so proud of you for your accoplishments. i am proud of the courage you have and the dedication to make our life better.

i love that life is so easy with you. you help me to not be so serious. you make me laugh--always. you help me to see the good all around me. you support me in all my crazy ideas. i know you love me for who i am.

thank you for a great eleven years. life is good and i have been so blessed to be your wife. i love that i am so excited to see you walk through the door. i love that i can't wait to talk to you about everything and anything.

and i love that i am still in love with you.

happy eleven years. and happy a million more...

Congratulations! You two are truly a great couple, and that was such a sweet tribute. I'm raising my Propel bottle in a toast. "Here, here!"

I'll raise my Diet Dr Pepper bottle to you as well. I remember so much of those early "courtship" days - especially our double dates (and yes, those memories are positive even if my date didn't turn out to be as great a catch as Shawn). You two have always been a great fit and amazing friends. Congratulations and best wishes as you embark on many, many more years together.
