Happy Anniversary!

I have been watching the rain all day and just thinking of this day 4 years ago. The weather was just like today and the rain just kept coming. It was the most perfect day ever! Not because of the food, my dress, my hair, the flowers... all of these things added beauty to our day, but it was the man I was marring and where we were being married. I had found the perfect man, and now we were going to the temple to be sealed forever. I Love Kris more today than I did that day, hard to believe. We have shared so much and he is my perfect man. He is loving, affectionate, considerate, patient (and for those of you that truly know me, this is a must!). He is such a good listener. He is respectful, such an awesome dad (both of our girls are such daddy's girls). I love to watch him watch the girls, he could just watch them for ever. He is always commenting on how perfect they are. Kris is amazing in every way. Life would not have been the same with anyone else. He is my perfect man, and my best friend. I still call him everyday to see what time he is coming home, I know a lot of that is because the girls are ready for a change of the guard, but more than that I love to see him walk though the door. I was telling him the other day when he walks in the door, everything seems like it will be ok. There have been several times that I have been stressed, worried, concerned, or scared about something and when he is around I just feel safe. I know that he would never do anything to hurt me and that I can share anything with him. He is my rock! I feel honored to know that we will be together forever. Kris I love you! Happy anniversary! I hope every year is as amazing as the last 4! Thanks for being you!

So for our anniversary I made a cake, I have been wanting to try to do a fondant cake, so this was the perfect excuse. I think the colors had a lot to do with the little girl that was helping me. That is what we did for most of the morning and then it was time for a quick pick up of the house. When Kris got home from work we headed out for dinner. Due to the lack of a babysitter and so we being as we had our two crazy girls with us we decided to go to Sizzler. The girls were actually awesome. Then we had to make a stop at Costco and then we headed home. We came home to put the girls in their new jammies and have some cake to celebrate "your marriage" as Molly kept saying over and over. I think that fondant is really quite gross, but I had not said anything to the girls, but did tell Kris to just not eat the outer layer of frosting. Molly had eaten most of the fondant layer and then looked up and said, pointing to the fondant "That's not good." So funny. Then she continued to clean her whole plate. Then it was off to bed for the girls and a little Burn Notice  and reading and early bed so that Kris can get up for his early day (Fridays he has to leave the house by 6:30, totally stinks.) maybe we can have a true celebration when the girls in the stake get back form youth conference, thing settle down at my family's house or Kris' family gets home from Powell. But for now girls or no girls it was nice to spend the night with Kris.

You know you are living the high life as a doctor when you spend your anniversary at the Sizzler. Was this part of your 72 HR kit, Sizzler to go? We're coming to Utah next week, so maybe some fine dining is in order. Nice work Rosey!
