the man of my DREAMS

January 7, 2011... haven't changed too much have we?
It's been 8 years! Happy Anniversary to my honey- the absolute man of my dreams. While it hasn't been the easiest ride lately, there's no one in the UNIVERSE I'd rather have next to me. Before we met, I made a rather lengthy list of attributes in a man that were super important to me. I'm pretty sure he was just about everything on my list... and a few fun surprises that I've found in the years since. Can't believe I was lucky enough to find him and get to call him mine!

I love so many things about him... just to name a few...  
* he's not only the best husband but the best father four boys could dream to have
* he's super handy- he can fix just about anything which I LOVE
* he loves my family
* he's touchy-feely and holds my hand whenever I want
* he's super, super funny... even when we struggle, we laugh a lot together and as a family
* he makes my heart melt when I look at him since he's so good looking
* he's squeaky clean and always smells so, so good
* he will {and routinely does} clean just about everything around the house
* super motivated, he rarely procrastinates with anything... a very attractive quality

Our Wedding Day

* he's spontaneous- can be good {and bad}, but mostly good
* he puts Caden to bed every night... after all day with him, this is quite nice
* he can admit when he's wrong
* I get butterflies when I know he's on his way home
* he's a hard worker and provider for our family
* he grocery shops
* he knows what makes me happy
* he makes me feel safe and protected
* he's very patient with me
* he loves me unconditionally... can't wait to see what this next year has in store for us!
