17 years and counting
On March 17 it will be 17 years since my dear sweet hubby asked me to marry him. 17 years sounds like a long time and I know that I can't possibly be that OLD!
Anyway...what has 17 years brought us...we'll I'd like to say that since he asked me to marry him on St. Patrick's Day that the Luck of the Irish has blessed us for all of those years....well it hasn't. Don't get me wrong we've been lucky---I just think that our 17 years have seen more bad luck then good...
For instance- who books a trip to Mexico and then gets told the wrong directions and misses their flight to paradise---the Hill's
Who books a vacation to Disneyland the day after Christmas and has to wait outside the gates of Disneyland because they reached capacity and will only let a person in when one person leaves....the Hill's
Who buys a house at the hight of the market in Utah and then has to sell ( hopefully someone will buy it )it at a BIG loss due to the economy--the Hill's
Who go moves out of their beautiful house - rents it and moves into a small rental house only to have to move again into an even smaller space like Blair's grandma's basement---The Hill's
Anyway...enough with the bad stuff- even though they were bad and miserable they have been some of the most memorable and defining moments in our marriage.
I am Lucky to have someone who loves me so completely through all of these years!
