Has it really been 7 YEARS?!!!! WOW! Time really does fly!
Today Greg and I celebrate 7 years of wedded bliss. I know last year I shared my thoughts about how Anniversaries are so special. Birthdays come and go with little effort on our parts. Unfortunately, Marriages don't always. It is something you must work at daily, some days you work harder than others.
Greg and I both agree that this year has been our most difficult. We have had some amazing ups and some very challenging downs. Through it all I definitely feel that we have grown as a result. In fact I think these last few months have possibly been the best ever.... at least since kids.
Does anyone else find they had more conflict with their spouse since kids? I know we have. I think it's because you focus so much energy on the kids and work and the house and all your responsibilities, it can be easy to neglect each other.
I am trying harder to show Greg how much I love him.
"It's not enough to take the one you love for granted. You must remind him or he'll be inclined to say, How do I know she loves me? How dose he know he's mine? Do you write a special blog post that's meant just for him? Make a slide show of pictures where he's really cute. You'll find your own way to show him. With the little things you do. That's how you know. That's how you know. He's your love"
Did I just break into song? So Sorry. Giselle, is that you?
Anyway- I have such great memories of our wedding day, Even more from the years that have followed.
I love Greg and hope we will continue to work and grow together for many more Anniversaries to come.
(Sorry- I feel like I'm cutting this short, but We've got a date!)

Happy Anniversary guys!!! That is awesome--we are only one year ahead of you--we'll celebrate our 8th in August. As far as how hard it is since we've had kids--we've ALWAYS had kids, so we don't know what it's like to be ALONE. We dream about what we'll do when they're all married off. With our luck, one of them will stick around forever :)
I hoped you had posted a blog for your anniversary! Incredible to think 7 whole years have gone by!! Happy Anniversary to you!! Love you, Mom & David

I guess you guys must pray together, cuz, you know, that whole rhyming thing. I like Greg. I like you, too. Don't ever change. What a wild ride, and all that. KIT
So if this posts twice do you win the annual blogger total comment prize?

So I know that this is totally late but happy anniversary. We were out of town and things have been crazy this week with trying to close our house. I can't believe how fast time flies. Congrats on the last great 7 years and many many more to come.
