Happy TEN Year Anniversary!
Justin would tell you that our ten+ years have felt like ten minutes.....
under water, with NO air.
Ha Ha! He is quite the comic.
I really can not believe that we are here at the 10 year mark. It seems like we are still little kids trying to figure out life and that
we just got married a little while ago.
I thought that I would give a ten things / favorite memories of why I love my husband SO much!
Some may find this cheesy or gaggish so read at your own risk...
*The first memory is while we were dating- I was car shopping and I drug him (aka Dodge Boy to my family) around with me EVERYWHERE to look for a car. I was picky about what I wanted and he teased me about how spoiled I was. (Rude, I know... Me -- spoiled?!?) I got really mad at him and he started laughing and said that was one of things that he liked about me- I didn't settle for less than what I wanted and that was determination in his eyes.
Hmmm, Interesting spin on spoiled!
*That we were "just friends" and could date anyone else we wanted. Unless of course it is the 4th of July and you are going on the 3rd date with the same "other" guy. Then there may be problems and you may have a cute kid waiting for you when you got home who thinks that "we shouldn't date other people anymore, just each other!" Fine by me, it was what I wanted the whole time...
*When he asked me to marry him. I was so happy!
It was one of the best days of my life!
*The day we got married- It was SO early and I15 was closed down. We got married in the SLC Temple and the day was a beautiful blur of happiness.
*Moving into our first house. He had been building it the whole time we were engaged. He is such a hard worker. He still is. I love that about him.
*Having him there with me at the ultrasound when they told us that our little baby Sadie was there, alive and well and that there was NOTHING at all wrong with her. I got to see him cry his first Daddy tears that day.
He is the best and most patient Dad.
*His comic relief on my behalf. I get a little stressed out sometimes and I can always count on him to calm me down with some funny comment. These won't mean anything to you guys but here's too... "Bring it On! LIAR! and SHEESH!" and when Parker the tank was born... "I think He wants Steak."
*How he makes me feel so loved. I can feel trampled, beat up, torn down and broken and He can make it all better. He is SO good at that.
*The way that we are in this together. We make all of our life decisions together, share all of our crazy ideas (well mostly his, at 2 in the morning no less)
and are living our dream. It is awesome!
He is constantly looking for ways to make our life better and has more energy then Parker when it comes to making them work. Heres to Steedra, Aronia, house #8, and the many more to come.
*The fact that he is still here. I am not the easiest person to deal with, I have an evil gene that likes to rear its ugly head and make me freaky every once in a while. I am not as patient, hard working, or even forgiving for that matter. But everyday, he is there, making my world a better place.
I sure am lucky and I sure do love him.
Thanks for the best 10 years so far. I am looking forward to a whole bunch more!

WOW! I don't deserve her!
She is the best thing that has ever happened to me!
As I sat here in my office reading and reminiscing of the wonderful memories we've shared, I just could not hold back my emotions. I quickly got up and closed my door and cried. I'm so blessed to have such a wonderful wife!
I could share a million amazing memories we've made, and i wouldn't trade a one of them!
Jill you are the best thing that has ever happened to me!
Best things about Jill

Oh my goodness it is getting thick in here! We are so happy you both decided not to be "Just friends" anymore and Jus even though you showed up at our house with MC Hammer pants on I always knew you were just what Jilly needed. So glad you two are together, Happy Anniversary!
Now come see us!

Congrats on 10 years! I can still remember when you were dating and you would say you guys were "just friends". We thought it was so funny, because we all knew it was more than that :) You guys are awesome!
I, personally, am VERY gald you moved past the "Just Friends" stage of your relationship... my life would be a dark and dreary place without Sadie, Megs, Parkay and Tjers...not to mention Heart Attacks! I love you guys! Happy 10th Anniversary!
Happy 10th you guys! Love the blog. We love you guys so much, heres to many more years for your family!!
yer disgusting.....ly sweet and stuff. I figured he'd cry when he read it. We like Houston too....and i still apologize for my ill behavior in the beginning....BUT, in my defense....I was losing my best friend to a strange man who rescued you from a long walk home and drove a dodge (like a maniac, I might add. I think I still have a gray hair from driving to China City in that truck.)
Happy Anniversary. I'd sing it Jennie style, but no one would hear me.
