I think this is the very first picture ever taken of us together, December 31, 1998.  That was Fourteen years ago.  FOURTEEN YEARS.

 

Eleven Years ago, we stood side by side smiling and laughing, ready to make it official in the eyes of God (PaPa’s words)

The First Kiss 2

Eleven years later – I sit at the computer looking through pictures, and knowing without a doubt that saying yes to you was the best decision that I’ve ever made.

You are my best friend.

You have given me the most precious gifts in the world

I can’t believe it’s been Eleven Years already.

Nathan, I love you for so many reasons and I’ve said it all before at Seven Years, Eight Years, Nine Years, and Ten Years.  Each one of those posts says everything, and yet each year I love you and respect you more.

Thank you for making me a better person, thank you for showing our son what a gentleman really is, thank you for showing our daughter that she is someone to be cherished, thank you for being my rock, my supporter, my partner, my love.

Happy Anniversary, Nathan.  I love you.

Nate and Me
