“A great marriage is not when the ‘perfect couple’ comes together. It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.” -Dave Meurer

May 30, 2009—>May 30, 2017. 8 years: nearly 1/3 of that spent apart because of your career, 2 homes, 4 dogs, 2 adorable surfer kids, 2 boats, countless trips to the sunshine state, and more dreams checked off our ever-growing list. I am so grateful to God for sending you to me (or maybe me to you ;D ) June of 2005, he knew we were exactly what each other needed to walk through life. You are by far the perfect balance to my type AA personality, even when I become so frustrated with it. You teach me the ebb and flow of life, that things can wait but not memories, that tangible items are so not worthy of value in our life. You encourage adventure with me and our boys, you know that experiences will long outlive the things we fill our home with. I am so encouraged by that! I love that about you. I love that I can not find ONE person with ONE negative thing to say about you, that you make friends with any and everyone, you are always willing to help someone.  I admire that you truly do not care what people think of you and I think that is one reason so many like you. You are the absolute perfect role model to our children, I pray they grow to be like you.

Thank you for choosing to love me on this walk in life.
