17 Years

The years are just flying by!  Hard to believe we've been married for 17 years.  Our anniversary was on the 4th, and sadly, we saw each other for a few hours at most.  I was at a track meet and Kirk was picking up other kids from events.  He came home from work to some pie, his favorite root beer and some of his favorite chips (Kettle salt and pepper).  I came home to these:

By the time we had a minute together, we just put the kids to bed, got some of our favorite Chinese take out and watched some funny you-tube videos in our room with the door locked.  It was not by any means my "dream" anniversary, but it actually turned out pretty fun!  I'm hoping someday (maybe for our 20th) we can really take a fun trip or something!  One of the best things about being married to Kirk is he's so simple and easygoing and we just enjoy each other no matter where we are.  I love him more than ever.  He really is my best friend and he knows everything about me.  We've really grown together these years.  I'm so thankful for him!!  Beth

PS It was so fun going through all my wedding photos (I always do this every year)  This is one of my favorites of my sisters and my best friend.
