get him a back scratcher!...

Well today marks our 7th Anniversary as husband & wife. I cannot believe that it has been SEVEN years already! Seems like yesterday he was at my work down on bended knee handing me a candy heart with the word "Marry Me" on it asking me to be his wife! WOW! See what seven years and 4+ kids can do to you! You lose your mind! LOL! We surely have been through a lot these past seven years! Including the last 4 which seem like they have been one HUGE blur!

Better yet he followed after us with the dust buster as we put up an artificial Christmas tree because it was dropping FAKE needles all over the floor! Yes he is THAT anal! LOL!

We balance each other out in SO many ways! In honor of today I found an old pic of the two of us from back then, back when we thought we knew it ALL! I think it was taken 6 months AFTER we were married. Again those were the days! LOL! I thought it would only be fitting in the year of Wool, aka the year of the 7 year itch to...
