2,000 Days Married to my Best Friend



2,000 days...woo, what a journey...

Let me start by saying I can't believe what has happened in 2,000 days...God has been so gracious to us.

The 2,000 things I love about Jared...

1) His love for Jesus Christ and always being genuine, not pretend
2) That he loves me so much
3) His love and protection for Ryleigh Jo
4) His Nard-dog tendancies
5) His crazy eye
6) His giggle when something is really funny (or at least he thinks it's funny)
7) His love and appreciation for my family
8) His scar on his cheek (thanks Aunt Jan)
9) His humor during difficult times
...
2,000) That he's loved me now for almost 8 years...

Ok, so I'm not going to list 2,000 things...but I can't believe how much more I love him today than 2,000 days ago...

I love you Jared, my best friend...

A Kid Again...

This weekend, Jared and I picked out some movies that we loved as kids to share with Ryleigh. The list included mostly animated features. It was fun to sort through the movies together because it allowed us to share some memories about each other that we may not have known.

Last night we watched An American Tale Fieval Goes West..."give em' the lazy eye"...



Ryleigh was awake for about the first half. She watched so intently and it was great that she too enjoyed the movie. After Ryleigh, fell to sleep, Jared and I were still able to enjoy and laugh together about the movie. We were even talking and predicting parts of the movies, "remember this...remember that..."

Can't wait to see which movie is next...
