Looking back at these pictures of us together without children seems strange. I barely remember those years. What did we do with our time? I worked a full time job but I guess we had more time for each other.
We went to a friends wedding in this picture. I am sad to say her husband has recently walked out on her. After 13 years and 3 children. My heart is breaking for my friend and those children. They need their daddy and she needs her husband. I remember their wedding day.....
We celebrated birthdays with family and friends at Dairy Queen after church.
We went to the Valentine's Day banquet at church.

| We took our first professional pictures together since our wedding. So young and so different without the children. Time and age can do so much for a person. We learn as we go in life and I am glad we had those first few years together before we had children. We were able to adjust to each other and living together before the boys came into the picture. |

| We traveled on planes to see family out of state (because we could afford it) for the holidays. We bought our first (and only) house while I was pregnant with our first son. I worked until the day before Jacob was born. I used my maternity leave and vacation time accumulated and called my boss and told I would not be coming back. I needed to stay home with my baby. I have been home ever since. God have me my children and I didn't want miss anything so I chose to be home with them. Even if it means pinching pennies to make ends meet. That's what we have to do. It's worth it! God has provided our needs. |
