Five Years Together!!







On March 15th, we celebrated our 5 year anniversary! I cannot believe it has been five years already! We had an amazing day spent together without children...thank you mom and dad for taking them off our hands for the day. It was amazing to have such a great time and know that our kids were safe and happy.

As we went throughout our day together, we just kept saying over and over how blessed we were. In five years, we have had 2 babies, 3 houses, moved out of state and back, taken several vacations, had job changes, yet...we feel that all of it has been an incredible experience and the blessings overflow. That isn't to say that we haven't had some tough times, we definitely have, and we acknowledge those times and how we grew from them. Truth is, there isn't anyone else I could ever imagine doing life with. Dae-Sung is a loyal, loving, trustworthy, hilarious, and witty person, and he is the best partner in life. I love you so much!

Here is a recap of our day...

We took the kids to grandma and papa's house, and headed out to the desert to do some horseback riding. Dae-Sung was reluctant at first, but the weather was perfect, the scenery was gorgeous, and the ride was relaxing. Of course, I got the horse that wanted to stop and eat every few feet.


Next, we headed on to get some amazing massages. This was perfect planning (although, we both wished we could have taken a quick shower after leaving the stables). After riding horses for an hour, a couples massage was just what the doctor ordered. We then headed on to get a light lunch and a quick stop at the mall. We actually accomplished a TON at the mall that we could never have accomplished with the children around.


We ran home and quickly got ready for our nice dinner at an amazing restaurant at a gorgeous resort. My husband called ahead and reserved the table by the fireplace on the outdoor patio. He had ordered my favorite wine to be chilled and waiting for us upon arrival. They had lit candles all over the table and the bottom of our menus said, "Happy 5th Anniversary". Even our desserts said "Happy Anniversary". It had to be one of the most romantic nights of my life.

To my wonderful husband...I love you. Thank you for one of the best days of my life.
