Seven

"With this ring, in front of God, I pledge myself to you forever and join my life with yours. May God bless our love as I love you and honor you for as long as we live."

Seven years ago today, Matt and I said this to each other as we began our life together as a married couple.

The day looked like this.



And we looked like this.


I cannot think of another seven year span in my life when I have been so completely happy, fulfilled, loved, and loving toward someone. Matt is my best friend and we enjoy our life together more and more every single day! He is the most amazing man, husband, father, and leader. God has truly blessed us both! Our lives are so different today than they were seven years ago and I love it and would not change anything about it. I love you, Matt. I pray that God will continue to bless our family and our relationship with continued love, respect, and fun!
