Happy 8th Anniversary!

This is by far my favorite wedding picture. Janet Gordon did our pictures and at this point she said something along the lines of: Relax, you guys are getting married- look like you like each other, which made us laugh and more naturally hold each other. There are a many things that I can count on in our relationship, and one of those is that we make each other laugh (mostly because we have the same warped sense of humor). Marriage isn't easy- I'd accuse anyone who said otherwise, but Marriage is worth it. I think we've gotten through the hard times because we have never let go of certain things: our friendship that started our relationship, and that has only gotten stronger; our desire for a healthy, happy home for our family; our love, that while tested at times by our own weaknesses, has grown stronger through the refiner's fire; and our desire to serve the Lord, who, we know, will help us through anything if we only ask.

So, Happy Anniversary Kaylon. I love you more today than I did 8 years ago, and have faith that in another 8 years I'll be able to say the same.
