Anniversary and Father's Day

Yesterday, June 18th, Justin and I celebrated our 6 year anniversary.  Wow...how time flies!  We have had an amazing 6 years together as a married couple.  In those 6 years we finished remodeling my grandparent's old home in Resaca and lived there, sold that house, built our house in Red Bud, gotten pregnant and had 2 precious children, and remained best friends through it all.  Don't get me wrong...we have had some rough spots along the way, but we always work through them.  I know we managed to do that first and foremost by having a Godly marriage.  We go to church together and pray together and keep our Christian life our first priority.  We also managed to have many more good times than bad these last 6 years because we truly are each other's best friend.  We take time and spend together and talk about our interests and lives with one another.  I know the rest of our lives won't always be a glowing report, but I also know that we CAN have a great, happy marriage and not just "get by".

We celebrated our anniversary this year by spending the night in Athens, GA at The Colonels Bed and Breakfast.  We ate our anniversary dinner at our favorite restaurant in Athens, The Last Resort.  I miss living there and was so excited to go back to the campus of UGA and remember good times. 



We also celebrated Father's Day this weekend.  Justin is an amazing father and is very involved with our children's lives.  He takes time to play with Malone (even dolls), and holds and loves on baby Jagger, as well as getting up with him at night (which we luckily don't have to do anymore), changing diapers and feeding him.  I am so lucky to have a man who wants to be so involved with our children, because I know there are many mothers out there who pray for a more involved father for their children.  We celebrated Father's Day by going to church, and then we had our own fathers over to our house for BBQ and home made ice cream.  Malone and Jagger got Justin an I-Phone cover that was personalized with our family's picture.  The kids also made their grandfathers birdhouses with their hand and feet prints.  It was a great day!
