5 Years!


Can you believe it? Dennison and I have already been married for five years. Once I give you a photo journey through our life together, you might find it a lot easier to believe. A LOT has happened! Don't worry, it's the abbreviated version.
Engagement pictures

At our reception
Aren't we cute?!



These were our first "children". I really loved these cats. Especially Oliver, the orange one. Yes, I had a favorite.
He's now living in Idaho with only 3 legs.

And this is Leroy:
He was kinda weird, but really funny. He was scared of Dennison if he was standing up.

They had a love/hate relationship.


This was our first home purchase. We fixed it up and sold it less than a year later.

And this was my car that we sold when we bought our Trooper.


And this was Dennison's truck that we sold.

Then we had a baby! Cute little Carter. 7 lbs 11 ozs almost 3 weeks early.

4 months after he was born, we moved to a different state. Our stupid car broke down along the way. It was not fun, but it makes for a good story now.

When we moved, we left our cats at my sister's house. I really missed them so we tried getting a new little kitten. Isn't she cute? Her name was Juanita.
Well she was also mean. She only lasted a couple days in our house.

Then Jude was born! What a sweet little baby. 9 lbs 2 oz.
We bought another house! There's still a lot that we want to do, the first one being to finish painting. We really dislike that grey poupon color you're seeing in this photo. And that silly curtain is only temporary.
P.S. We've moved a total of 5 times in five years. I hate moving.


Baby #3!! A sweet little angel girl. Vienna. 8 lbs 2 oz.

Not to be a downer, but it's a huge event in our lives. 3.5 weeks after her birth, Carter was diagnosed with Leukemia. Not cool.

This is the most recent family photo. It makes me sad to look at it though because Carter is obviously sick-looking. It was taken about a week before the diagnosis. But otherwise a cute picture, right?

And look at how cute our kids are now!
I don't have one of them all together.

And this is the most recent photo of the two of us. Not at our best, but it will have to do.
It was taken at the beginning of January in the hospital.

It's been a fun, exciting, and crazy ride. And we're still in love after all this! :)
