Happy Anniversary

Hard to believe it has been 6 years since we stood before our family & friends, looked into each others eyes and took these vows...
"From this moment, I choose you, as my best friend for life. I promise to encourage your enthusiasm, because that is what makes each day with you new and exciting. I promise to nurture your dreams, because through them your soul shines. I want to spend the rest of my life hearing your thoughts and seeing your dreams. When our way becomes difficult, I promise to stand by you, comfort and uplift you, so that through our union we can accomplish more than we could alone. I promise to work at our love and always make you a priority in my life. I promise I will always be there for you. I promise to be your partner in all things, not possessing you, but working with you as my partner. I promise to share with you the joys of life, because with you they will be that much sweeter. Lastly, I promise to you a marriage full of love and happiness. This is my sacred vow to you, my equal in all things."
I am so thankful that through all of the challenges we have faced together we have been able to remain dear friends. I can honestly say that I love him more now than I did the day I married him and I think I even know him a little better too :)
I am grateful for the fun that we have together. It is so nice to relax and try to forget about the details of our life and just enjoy each other.
I am thankful for the extra effort Marq constantly makes to help out and make sure I know that he loves me and thinks I'm special.
This year we are getting ready to start a whole new chapter of our life together. We are moving to the Portland area in July and although I will be sad to leave many loved ones behind I am very excited for this new journey. More than anything I am so thankful to know that no matter what happens we will face it together. Here's to many more happy years together!
