Seventeen years of wedded bliss!
Then: shaun 21, danielle 18.
And now: (we look a little tired. i wonder why?) but we haven't changed too much, have we?
still very much in love!
Pretty much the same stats as the last couple years:
we have lived in 17 different places (this is somewhat embarrassing, but this is how we were brought up, by moving a lot)
11 of those places were in the first 7 years of marriage
we have owned two houses, lived in 11 different apartments, rented two houses, rented one duplex and lived with my mom for one month
we have been through 11 different vehicles (including the ones we have now)
shaun has worked 15 different various jobs (some part-time, some full-time)
i worked 7 different jobs
we have been on 3 vacations (colorado, cozumel, minnesota)
we have had 5 pets: a fish named napolean, a dog named maggie, our first cat was murray (who is now in the big litter box in the sky, as shaun says), we also had a cat named milton who dissappeared, and charlie who currently resides with us
after 9 years of being married eva was born and lily came after 12 years and claire came after 15 years
out of 17 years of marriage, at least on of us was in college for 11 of those years. we both went all the way through college, and shaun through seminary
shaun weighs 10 lbs less now that when we got married (how many men can say that!)
i was 18 with .0000001% body fat when we got married and i have had three children since so i will NEVER again weigh what i did when we got married
we still love to hang out together and we are still best friends
First of all, I love the stats! Second, you both look 12 years old in your wedding picture. Third, I think it is wonderful that you are "friends". That was the secret to my parents' 52 year marriage.
