We were able to go out and we tried a place called the DoDo. The food was just alright, but the dessert was AMAZING. As we were talking and laughing I realized that all I wanted to do was just go home and hang out in my sweats and just be with him. I used to think that if I didn't get a present (which is still always nice ;) ), or have this big to do on my anniversary that it just didn't mean as much. But as great as that all is, I love being home and in his company, and it means just as much because I know how we feel about each other. And it says something to me that I don't need those things to feel loved, because he shows me in his way. Like cleaning around the house, doing the dishes, having the kids and not minding when I need a girls night away from home, texting me during the day while he's at work because he wants me to know he's thinking about me. I know there is still much to improve on in our marriage, but that's something I look forward to, because it's worth it. Happy Anniversary to my Brandon.
Brandon and I have been married 8 years now. I can't even tell you how much this number means to me. With all we have been through and where we are now, I don't even recognize who we were at the beginning. I can tell you that I am genuinely happy. Something I have been praying and striving for, for a long time. I have two beautiful girls with this man, and our relationship just keeps getting better as we have focused on our family and the Gospel. I can say with all certainty that without God, marriage is just a wedding. He is in everything.
