6 YEARS TODAY!!


So 6 years today Ben took me through the temple and we were sealed for eternity! It was an awesome day for the both of us! The Idaho Falls temple didn't have a lot of flowers in bloom at this time of year, but the Fire Bushes were in full bloom and made the perfect background. I was always scared that it would rain on my wedding day and sure enough after being outside for about 20 minutes, it started to sprinkled then turned into a pour down. Lucky the arch in the bridal garden served as a good shield from the rain and also made for beautiful pictures! I wish I could remember what our sealer (Elder Ward) said to us this day, but I am sure it was important :) . I knew Ben would take good care of me and make me happy. I also knew he would be a great husband and father. He has not let me down in any way. He teaches me something new everyday and always puts me first in our marriage. We have had so many fun memories over the past 6 years. We have also laughed until we practically cried, had sad moments together, had fights with each other, stayed up late into the morning talking, and learned what true love really is! He is one of the best people I know and I feel so lucky to be HIS wife. I love him and appreciate him SO much!


For our anniversary Ben surprised me and took me on an Anniversary trip. First we dropped our kids off and then he took me to the Destinations Inn. Our room was beautiful, the food was fabulous and the company was sensational-I love snuggling with him! The next day we headed to Salt Lake and stayed at the Anniversary Inn. Again our room was fun and we got to eat at P.F. Changs, one of our absolute favorites! We had long talks and enjoyed being together! The funny thing is, our main topic of conversation was our kids. We missed them, but enjoyed being together ALONE! We had a lot of fun and he planned everything out so perfect! He never ceases to amaze me!!


I look forward to the many, many years ahead with my best friend and the love of my life!! 

I Love you sweet man!!!!

Happy Anniversary! Sounds like you had a great trip. Way to go Ben for planning it all! It's always nice to get a way. That's sounds just like us, Somehow we always end up missing our kids and can't wait to get back.
