11 Years!!

Friday January 28th was our 11 year anniversary. Wow! I can't believe it's been that long... I guess time really does go faster when you are having fun. He is so much fun to be with. He makes me laugh every single day, and more importantly at myself! He is such a good Dad. I love that he puts Gk down to sleep at night so I can have some time to myself. I really am so lucky to have him! I still feel marrying Patrick was the best choice I ever made.

Friday was such a nice day the kids and I wen

t to the park. It was so nice to get outside. (I definitley have the summer time blues.) Gk & Bentley both loved getting some fresh air and getting our wiggles out at the park. Gk loved the slide and Bentley got to try out the swing!

I thought Patrick was going to be working on a side job that night but he surprised me with dinner at Market Street. The food was so good and it was so nice to have Patrick all to myself for a couple of hours.

So Patrick had to do his side job on Saturday, the kids and I went to the zoo. It was a blast! A little cold and we didn't last a real long time but it was fun to go out and play some more.

10 Years Ago....

...Patrick and I got Married! I am so lucky to have such an amazing man! The past 10 years have flown by, it seems like yesterday; at the same time I can't remember what it was like to not be with him. No one makes me as happy or knows me as well as he does! I am so blessed to have have him. We have had many fun adventures together, and I can't wait to see what the next 10 years will bring. I can honestly say I love Patrick more now than I ever knew I could. I am also so grateful for his whole family. They are such loving and fun people, I love being a Lowder!

We went to Hawaii for our Anniversary, but I haven't had a chance to go through all the pictures yet, I am working on it though! Tonight we went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse and are super full. GK was a bit of a pill so we didn't take any pictures or anything, we really hurried out of there. I guess it shows we have been married for 10 years.

Happy 40th

Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad! You guys are amazing!

9 Years!

 

Wow! I can't believe it has been 9 years since we got married!

My 9 Favorite things about Patrick are: (in no particular order...)

1. His Smile

2. He's such a hard worker

3. Sense of Humor & He's SO much fun to be around

4. He Loves his Mom

5. He's an amazing Dad

6. Beautiful Blue Eyes

7. His Determination

8. He Wants to be/do more, even though he doesn't need to

9. The way he knows me better than I know myself.

I am also so grateful that he is a Priesthood holder and that he is willing to provide for GK & I.

I never could have thought I would love him more than on the day we got married.

But every day it seems to double. Patrick you are my best friend. 

Thanks for putting up with me all these years!

Today

Some days I'm sure he wishes he just went snowboarding instead!

Today is Patrick and My Eight year Anniversary. I can't believe it has been that long, but at the same time I can't remember what life was like before we were married. It was easily the best decision I have ever made and I am so grateful for him. Patrick really does spoil me rotten and I don't deserve it but I am more thankful for him every day. I love him very much, I know he already knows it and that he will call me a "cheese balls" but I'm glad I didn't sleep in too much eight years ago or he might have thought twice about it.
