four years
I love this picture of us, Trav. In the mountains, both exhausted and gross-looking (well, me, at least) from parenting a crabby girl and traveling. But, we're in it together. I have your strong arms to hold me, you have my love and support in all you do.
We're learning what it means to be true friends: good friends, fun friends, deep friends. To one another. It takes a lot of work, and it might not come naturally all the time, but it's been worth it. Has it really only been four years? Golly gee, a mighty lot has happened in those four short years...
Thanks for letting me go this weekend. Thanks for knowing that anniversary's aren't just one single day, but a recognition and celebration of our life together. I can't wait to be with you when I get home. Thanks for being a wonderful, trustworthy Daddy. Thanks for loving me.
Yesterday, when you came home from work, while Bella and I waited for you outside... I looked at you getting out of the car, and I was struck with awe that YOU are my husband. That I had the privilege of marrying you. I looked at you and saw the Travis that I knew in high school and an immense gratefulness swept over me...
... we, who were just friends, merely acquaintances, would become husband and wife. And bear children together. What a profound mystery!
I love you. Happy 4 years.

Happy Anniversary dear friends! I felt the same way this year - has it ONLY been 4 years? God can sure do a lot of beautiful work in a small amount of time. Hope you get to do something wonderfully romantic together when you get back home!
Great post! I also really like that you very subtly edited out your mom jeans in the second picture. :)
