Two Years.

Today is our two year anniversary! Holy cow. In one sense it feels like time flew by, but in another sense I can see how it's been two years, especially with having one year in Minneapolis and one in Des Moines.

I am so incredibly blessed by Kley and am so happy to be his wife. I hope that I can be a more and more of a Proverbs 31 woman the older I get. I love living life together. The last sentence on the card I gave to him on our wedding day was about not having to say goodbye tonight, and that's still one of my favorite things. Sometimes I still lay in bed and tell him that I am so happy we get to sleep together. I always hated saying goodbye. Now when we say goodbye, even if it's just for the day, even if it's a horrible day, I am still blessed that I get to come home to Kley.

Kley is a good husband. He always (well, almost always) has the absolute perfect thing to say to me, no matter my mood. He is good at the gift of words of affirmation. He is passionate, encouraging, serving, gracious, forgiving, positive, and loving. Some of my favorite day to day moments are going for walks, driving around and looking at amazing houses, eating dinner, watching a TV show together, and talking in bed before falling asleep.

Don't get me wrong- marriage is hard, but it's the best gift and totally worth working at. It's scary how fast you can start to fall apart. Kley is my most important relationship on earth, and it takes a lot of effort, commitment, and time. But, there's no one else I'd rather spend my days with. :)

Here are a few pictures from our wedding day- August 14, 2010. (I had to refrain from posting hundreds of them. I love them all. I will post more when I get to the wedding post in "The story of Kley and I.")

I think I got a winner. :)
