2nd Year Anniversary

I cannot believe we have been married for two years. When we were married I thought we would be so old and knowledgeable after two years. Unfortunately I don't feel knowledgeable at all. We are still learning many things about each other and learning how to live together but we love each other more than the day we were married. I never thought that being married would be this much work but I didn't know it would be this rewarding either.

I'm all about being honest because I hate it when people paint a picture that isn't so I think it causes more problems then just being honest so hear it goes. I apologize to everyone that has witnessed one of our fights but it happens. We do fight we do say mean things to each other and we have a lot of regrets. Our marriage isn't perfect and we have a lot to work on but we're real. We love each other more than words can describe and we are best friends. I'm not sure what I would ever do without him I need him and I know he needs me. Although I regret the mean things I've said and the bad attitudes I've had I appreciate the arguments and trials we have had because it has made us stronger. We are completely different people from two years ago but we have grown together and that is what matters. Most of all I know all is possible through our Savior Jesus Christ. Marriage isn't easy and I'm so grateful I have the gospel to help us find common ground and seek guidance.

I'm married to such a good man he is everything and more. He is patient with me, he laughs with me, he comforts me, he strengthens me and me makes me feel special. I'm so happy to be married to him for two years now and look forward to celebrating so many more anniversaries.
Nothing makes me happier than when Brett is spending time with me. We don't get to do stuff together often so we really cherish the time we have together. Brett got our anniversary off so he could help me take pictures at a prom dance. I was a little bummed to be spending our anniversary with a bunch of high schoolers but my dad needed the help. After the Jazz made it to the playoffs I knew Brett was just dying to go to a game. He is such a big Jazz fan and I knew I would be a pretty cool wife if I bought him tickets to the playoff game.

I surprised him the day before (graduation) that we were going down the next day to see the game. He was so excited!!!!! There is nothing that makes me more happy than to see him excited like that. We drove down in the afternoon and did a lot of shopping but it was all for gifts nothing for us :( We went to a nice dinner and then to the game.

The game was nuts it was the first home game against the Lakers and the energy in there was crazy. As I'm sure you all know they lost but in my opinion they should have won. They lost by one point at the buzzer with the ball even touching the rim. If they would have won it would have been the game of the season. At the end of the game we were shaking, felt like we had survived a heart attack and had killer migraines.



I know its a horrible picture but it's all we got. We asked this lady to take a picture of us and I've never seem someone so challenged with a camera she kept on cutting off our heads and all the pictures were blurry. My idea was to get the arena in the background hers was to shoot up our noses so here ya go :)
Before going home we wanted to end the night on a good note so we went to this amazing cookie place at the gateway mall. It was such a warm night so we sat out on the walkway and devoured our cookies.
Initially I didn't think the game was my ideal anniversary, but it was a blast because I got to spend it with my handsome husband and watch his excitement. I wouldn't have wanted to spend it any other way.

  1. Time definitely flies when you are married! I know that marriage isn't always easy, and sometimes it is easiest to hurt people who are closest to you--but the love shared is incredible and grows all the time! You two are just fabulous, and I am grateful to have you around! I can't wait for a girls' night!
