Five Wonderful Years!!

It's hard to believe that 5 years ago today Mike and I were married for all time and eternity,
in the Bountiful UT temple.  I will never forget that day. 
It was absolutely beautiful, even though it was freezing. 
It was a perfect day in every way!
 Mike has turned out to be the perfect man, husband, and father.  He is one of the most loving and giving people I have ever met.  He always puts others before himself.  He doesn't hesitate to lend a helping hand to anyone with a computer problem.  Also, I haven't had to touch the vacuum in 5 years and many nights I don't have to worry about cleaning up dinner or doing the dishes, especially on bath night. 
He is a wonderful father, who is more than happy to have two beautiful little girls to care for, and I think is a little nervous about having a boy.  I can't believe it's been 5 short years, and we have 2 1/2 little ones.  Where has time gone?  And what were we thinking?

We celebrated our anniversary last week when I went to Utah for his company Christmas party.
We started the night at the Radison for dinner, then off to see the Jazz game and then Mike
had reserved a room at the Anniversary Inn for us to stay that night. 
We stayed at the Anniversary Inn the night after our wedding, so it was nice to stay again. 
I almost felt guilty being away from the girls and having my husband all to my self, however they were well looked after by Mom (Mike's Mom) and had more fun then I could have imagined. 
I don't remember when I had had such a restful night!  It was great to get away and I am longing for him to come home this weekend and be with his family.  We have missed him being away for so long. 

Just the other day Izabella asked me about a picture hanging on our wall.  I told her that it was a picture of the Bountiful Temple where mommy and daddy were married.  She told me that it was beautiful and that she wanted to be married there someday.  I couldn't be a happier mother than to know that she wants to be married in the temple, even if it is just because mommy and daddy were. 

For Mikey

You're the first thing I think of

Each morning when I rise
You're the last thing I think of
When I close my eyes

You're in each thought I have
And every breath I take
My feelings are growing stronger
With every move you make

You're an angel from above
who takes away my pain
My love for you is so strong
It's always just the same

You're the miracle in my life
Who can always make me smile
Just knowing that you care
Makes my life worth-while

You've touched my heart and soul
Which you have from the start
Your warm soft words
Will never leave my heart

You are everything I want
You're so pure and true
I love you with everything I have
And I love everything that you do.
