What 18 Years of Wedded Bliss Looks Like

Brent and I celebrated 18 years of marriage yesterday! Every year seems impressive as we close in on 20! {grin} I love, however, how the days look different these days compared to those first few anniversaries.

Our first anniversary with the top tier of our cake!

This year, our kids were on fall break, so we coordinated grandparent camp for the week and felt bad asking them to keep the kids AGAIN on Sunday, our actual anniversary, so we went out to eat on Thursday night, when they were with my parents. We went to a new steakhouse in our town, that is in the remodeled former post office, so it's called City Post.

I still think we look pretty cute after alllllll these years. {grin}

Dinner was SO GOOD!

We have this ridiculous game of trying to catch each other on our phones.

He was texting his friends but I couldn't get a picture, he was too fast!

Our anniversary also happens to be my BFF's bday, and she was turning 40 this year, so we had a girls dinner on Friday night to celebrate her. So thanks honey for taking care of the kids on our anniversary weekend! [Said a little bit with sarcasm because they're his kids too ha]

We got her a 40 crown and sash!

Besties for 16+ years!

This picture just melted me - 8:00 AM soccer for Ms. Paige!

The highlight of our actual anniversary was...clothes shopping with the kids! We have a family wedding coming up this weekend and none of the kids had anything to wear. So I took the kiddos to the outlet mall near us where we shopped for over 3 hours. BUT everyone found something to wear!

It's a miracle finding pants that fit Trent!

Sassy sisters

She wanted this picture to send to her friends, ha

I took zero pictures with Brent on our actual anniversary, but we got some cookies to celebrate. I love the life we've created together and that every day we're doing life together.

Here's to another year!
