Happy 10 Year Anniversary Honey!

Holy cow, 10 years, seriously?! How time does fly. Well, I've been trying to think of a way to tell my husband how much I love him, so I thought maybe I would do it on our blog, so everyone else can know how wonderful he is! So, I have come up with a list of 10 reasons why I love him:


1. He makes me laugh. The first thing that I liked about Brandon was that he was constantly making me laugh and he still manages to do it after 10 years.

2. He loves me unconditionally. I know I can be a pain in the butt sometimes :) But he always puts up with me and still loves me in spite of it all.


3. He never complains. He gets up and goes to work every day and I have NEVER heard him complain once about this. Now anyone who knows me, knows that I pretty much complain about everything, so this is a trait that I really admire in my husband. I know it must not be that fun to get up every day and go to work while I get to do the best job in the world and stay home with the kids, but he does it to provide for us and I appreciate it SO much.


4. As Dr. Laura says, he would cross shark infested waters to bring me a Diet Coke! I know without a doubt that my husband would do just about anything for me or my kids. He practically has swam through shark infested waters to bring me many a Diet Coke.

5. I can count on him to take care of us. I never have to worry that he would not do everything in his power to provide for his family. He would probably sell a kidney before he would let his family go hungry.

6. He is a wonderful Dad. He loves his kids to death and is a great father to them. He wants only the best for them and always wants to make sure they are protected.

7. He evens me out. I tend to be a little high strung and Brandon is very laid back, so he really helps to even me out. When I have had it up to my eyeballs with the kids, he is always there to rescue me!

8. He can't stay mad at me. Now this one might seem a little strange, but when I get mad, I can hold a grudge for a while. Not Brandon, he can't stay mad at me for more than like 10 minutes and even if he didn't cause the fight will come and apologize. I love this because I in turn forgive him and don't continue to hold a grudge for the next 2 days.

9. He is thoughtful. He is always thinking about other people and doing nice things for them. When we lived with my parents for several months, he would snowplow the driveway every time it snowed and mow the lawn almost every Saturday without ever being asked.


10. He loves the Lord. I know he has a close relationship with his Heavenly Father and looks to Him when making decisions for himself and our family.

Well, of course there are many other reasons I love him, but I wanted to do the top 10 since it's been 10 years. I know I don't do as good of a job as I should at telling you and showing you how much I love and appreciate you, but I will try harder. I do love you so much and I know we will have many more happy years together. Happy Anniversary!
