our 5th wedding anniversary

it's hard to believe that we have been married 5 years already!  and boy has it been one fabulous ride so far.  the traditional 5th year wedding anniversary gift is wood.  and we happen to be oh-so-practical and buying a new bed.  or are we saucy?  maybe both?

here's a look back:

we met in college back in 2001
backpacked through europe for 6 months
rode many mountains
skydived
got hitched
rented our first teeny tiny 1-bedroom apartment
bought a house
bought a business
had a baby
kept said baby alive and well for 1 year so far
sold {almost} our first house
bought {almost} our second house

it has been many laughs, tears, ups, downs.  
i have learned so much about myself, about relationships, about compromise, and about trust.
most importantly, there has been so much love.

mike,
you are my best friend.  thank you for walking through this life with me.
i love you.
