anniversary weekend

Our anniversary was on Sunday. It still surprises me every time I realize that we have been married for 14 years. Time just keeps on flying by. We like to talk about those early years; how I never planned on moving to Salt Lake but it was just meant to be, how I almost lost my opportunity to date Justin (we actually don't talk a lot about that, because it depresses me), how young we were. I don't think anyone knows what they are really getting into when they get married, but when I made that choice 14 1/2 years ago, I just knew everything about me marrying Justin was right, and it was the best choice I ever made. 

Our weekend first started out with celebrating the amazing weather we were having! Playgrounds after school, popcycles, and hide n go seek in the bushes.

Then after THE longest four day wait, I finally got to see my adorable nephew!! My sickness that I had for two weeks before and felt like I was getting so much better decided to come back with a vengeance for two more days. I was so frustrated. By Thursday I was feeling much better, and Friday I was a new woman. I didn't even get a picture of him because I was too busy admiring him and talking with my sister! So so happy for her! But I did manage to get a picture of our two girls wearing matching shirts ♥♥♥

 :: this girl fell asleep three seconds after I took the picture on the left + daddy in a suit holding our sleeping girl melts my heart :: 

 :: and just because this picture makes me happy - chocolate face + drawing letters + fell asleep while trying to write those letters ::

I'm quite happy with the little life we have created!

(not pictured: Corbin - how did he get out of getting his picture taken!  Also - Taylor was away from us all Friday evening at a birthday party and we missed him like crazy! And I attempted a fun Cinco De Mayo party, but it definitely did not turn out how I envisioned. There are just not enough hours in a day!)
