One Year

Labels: , , |

Today is Husband and I's one year wedding anniversary ♥
And something we think is pretty neat -
It rained last year on our wedding day
and it's raining today on our anniversary! :)

Here's a little note I wrote for Andrew;

"Dear Husband,
Today is our one year Wedding Anniversary!
It's definitely been a tough first year of marriage
and we have gone through so much,
but we made it and I have no doubt that our marriage
is going to last for the rest of our lives.
We are stronger now than we have ever been
and my love for you grows with every breath of each and every day!
You are not just my Husband but you are my Best Friend!
You are my rock and what completes me.
You always listen to and support me
and you're just always there for me whenever I need you.
I'm so thankful that God brought you into my life.
I love you with all of my heart and soul,
all the way to the moon and back and MORE!
Thank YOU for loving me! ;)"

Well, I'm back!

Labels: |

I took a long break from my blog and here is why...

Marriage is hard. I never really expected it to be easy but I always thought to myself how we've been together so long already (6 years in January) that it wouldn't be that much different and not that much harder. I was wrong. There's that saying about how "the first year of marriage is always the hardest", I laughed at that. I never thought it would be any harder. But things got extremely complicated after we got married. Sure, things were great for the first few months but they also got really stressful. We were married in September and bought our first house in October. Then Thanksgiving and Christmas were here, then before we knew it it was time for Spring layoff at Andrews work. Spring layoff is always very stressful but with our added mortgage it became so much more stressful than in past years. The stress along with other things put a huge strain on our relationship and we ending up separating for a few months. It was hard but we are back together again and working through all of our problems physically, mentally, emotionally and financially. We love each other very much. We have put way too much into our relationship not to try to make it work. We wouldn't have ever gotten married if we weren't going to make it last. It's been a tough year but we are rebuilding our relationship and I have all the confidence in the world that we will last and that we will be stronger than ever!
