Brad & Kristy through the years!

Expecting Connor!
Here we are now!
Ten years ago this week I was preparing to marry my first and only true love! I know it sounds mushy, but it's true. Tears are welling up in my eyes as I think of everything we have been through (good and bad) together. As I look back on our total of 15 years together (dating+marriage), I am amazed at how truly blessed I am. We went from naive high schoolers who didn't know what we wanted to college students questioning everything and trying to figure out where our lives were headed to a young married couple enjoying a double income and a "sweet" one bedroom apartment in Ballard to juggling grad students to first time home owners with a major remodel project and finally to our most important title to date: parents! God has blessed us over and over along the way.
We do not have a perfect relationship by any means, but I believe that God has provided us with what we needed when we needed it to encourage us and support us as we have grown as a couple. Brad has learned to love and listen to me and I would like to think that I have learned to honor and respect him. The Lord has given us great friends and family who have been there when we needed and guided us and related to us and helped make this journey called "marriage" really fun! Thank you to all of you.
I love you honey! Happy Anniversary!!!
