Seven Year Itch....

Today is December 19, 2009. My husband and I have officially been married for seven years.

I like this because I love him so much...Have you ever thought back at the guys you dated and THOUGHT in your youth that you would marry...and then when you find out what they are like today and what they are doing today...thinking that you could have been a part of their train wrecks or successes... I'm good.

We were married in Marco Island, FL at the Marriott Beach Resort. It was at about 7pm, with maybe thirty people watching the "consomit bachelor" say "I do" to me. The one that roped him in and 'showed him the way...' (not really) In seven years I think we have shown each other the way...The hotel was decorated for Christmas and everything was beautiful for us. Just what we wanted. Nothing fancy or loud of over the top. just us. they did such a beautiful job....

And for seven years Dan has been putting up with me and I with him. Lots of ups and not to many downs. Lots to look forward to and plenty to laugh about when we look back. One anniversary we picked up our little Miles at the shelter and brought him home and kept him for ours...

We don't do anything fancy on this day, we just like to be together you know. But I have to be honest. I still LOVE my husband so very much. I always hear stories of some people who have been married for a shorter amount of time that are bad mouthing their spouse or splitting up of whatever, but I cannot fathom that. I love to be home when Dan gets home from work, of love to wrap my arms around him and feel safe. I love to love on him and take care of him and I miss him when we are not together....It's just all the right thing for us... Us being together. We are not the argue type and we disagree on stuff...yes, but we respect each other so much and sacrifice for each other so well. We just love each other and are so grateful for that.

Now we will add our son to the mix of our union. We added a dog so why not a kid. But you know what, each day is a new one with my husband. It is a blessed on e with him and a loving one with him. I am his biggest fan and the neck that turns his head...but after seven years.. I am still SOOOO happy...

Needless to say, there are no signs of a Seven Year Itch....
