It has been eight years since I married this man and I will be eternally grateful for that decision.
I love him more with each passing year.
This year we crossed paths for a couple of hours after my night shift and before his business trip and had the pleasure of listening to our children scream in the car for a chunk of that time.
Very romantic.
Maybe we will have a do-over sometime in the future, but until then we will stay in love and enjoy every minute we get together.
Just for fun, here are eight things you may or may not know about us.
1. We met as EFY counselors.
2. Our first kiss was in Disneyland... under the firework show to be exact.
3. We already had our honeymoon and reception center booked before there was an engagement ring on my finger.
4. Jesse made me learn how to cut his hair while we were still dating. I only had scissors and it probably took over 2 hours. It's a miracle he still let me cut his hair after that.
5. Jesse proposed by sending me on a scavenger hunt with ninjas.
6. I actually have no pictures from the day we got engaged. And now that I take pictures of everything, I can't believe I didn't take a single picture that day.
7. The only regret I have from our wedding day was not shoving cake in Jesse's face. We were very cordial to one another and for whatever reason I'm a little disappointed in ourselves. Our wedding day was seriously the most perfect day though. Everything from the weather to the food to the location to the company. Flawless.
8. The sealer who married us mispronounced my name every time he said it. I'm assuming Heavenly Father still knew it was me.
