Happy Anniversary!!

Matt and I celebrated our 7 year anniversary this past weekend. We were married on March 29, 2002. It's amazing what can happen in 7 years. On Friday we were able to go out to celebrate and we went to Red Lobster. We ate WAY to much and enjoyed every bite. Then dashed off to see a movie that night. We almost felt like teenagers again. We had fun at dinner making up fake conversations of these kids that were going out for prom. Matt and I dared each other to go over there and make a scene:

"Oh how cute do you couples look"

"I remember those days of prom and homecoming"

"Did you borrow Daddy's car tonight"

"Don't you feel uncomfortable in those dresses because it looks like your adjusting yourself every 5 seconds"

But neither of us could ever have the guts to embarrass someone. But it was fun to giggle at the table.

There is one thing that Matt promised me before we got married and he said that it would be fun. Sure we've had our rough times but he has never let me down in the fun department. Matt is kind of a class clown and loves to make people laugh. He can tell me the same stories over and over again and they are still funny. I was thinking about some things that have happened over the years and I'll share a few memories (not in detail, this is mainly for Matt) but good memories that came to mind.

Hiking up a mountain in Mt. Rainier, in our shorts, in the snow, then skiing down the hill using our shoes.

Exploring the mountains in western WA in Lady(our truck)

15 hour road trip to Mom and Dad Murdock's

Matt trying to convince me I shrunk his pants in the dryer then as I looked closer realized he was wearing my pants!

Ocean shores and the magical appearing coin...Matt made me believe that coins were washing up on shore probably from Canada when he was actually tossing them out in front of me when I wasn't looking.

In the delivery room having Maryn and the nurses button didn't work(we didn't know this) and watching him go from one cupboard to the next trying to find a throw up pan while running back and frantically pushing the nurse call button. True Love!

Being proud watching him walk during graduation after 4 long years of sacrifice going back to school.

Four wheeling up Oxford Peak and crouching under sagebrush to shelter ourselves from the rain. Then, magically finding my sunglasses on the trail on the way back, picking them up while still riding on the four wheeler without letting up on the gas. True Talent!

Watching him hold Macey and Maryn for the first time.

I am thankful for my dear husband. He truly is my best friend. He understands my fears, my quirkiness and above all loves me completely. Happy Anniversary Honey!!
