Love Me My Hubby!

Today is our wedding anniversary. 5 years and counting. We have been through some rough patches and most likely will go through some more. But I'm grateful to have them because it means I still have Jeff.

5 years ago I wasn't sure I was doing the right thing. I knew I loved my husband to be, I knew I wanted to be with him, but I was unsure if it would work out. We were so different! Completely opposite in almost everyway.

As I sat across the alter from him, in the LDS Bountiful temple, I remember thinking, "Oh well... God hasn't told me to leave yet so I guess this is it. I hope I'm doing the right thing." Now when I tell Jeff that, he just laughs at me. I tell him that I had to take a HUGE chance on him and he had to on me. And we are both glad we did.

Marriage isn't easy. It's not roses and passion. It's not electrifying. Dating was. Sometimes I miss that. But, marriage is a companionship, it is love, it is trying to mold yourself into a better version to make the man you love happier, it is family and it can be eternal. 

I'm grateful for Jeff and for his humility and forgiveness. Happy anniversary to us.
