So on Saturday, Daryl and I celebrated our anniversary!! We had a great time out, with no worries, no expectations, and no Libby (Thanks Kendra!!). It was a great evening that we just relaxed and enjoyed.
So we have been married for 6 years now. I can't believe that it's been that long already. Time has just flown by!! There have definitely been some good times and some bad times, but thanks to hindsight I can say that we have been blessed by them all.
I love my husband very much and I am super proud of the man that he is. He challenges me daily to grow in my faith and to not be idle in it!
WHAT CAN I SAY... HE'S THE LOVE OF MY LIFE!!

in case you were wondering....

I'm guessing that there are some of you that are wondering how in the world we managed to get any reno's done when we had Libby running around.
Well for us, while we were assembling our cabinets Libby's baby swing (that Daryl's parents got for her) was our little miracle, besides of Libby of course.
Here's a pic of Libby in her swing in the garage. It worked out really well until she would get tired of it, and then we relied on an extra screwdriver where she would 'help' assemble.
Seriously though, she was great! We were very blessed to have such a great little girl. She's our angel.... most of the time! ;)

So our lives have been crazy. Not only is there the usual summer busyness but we also have bought a house, reno'd that house and now we are trying to get it 'just right' (which I figure will take around 20 years....).
Anyways enough of the excuses... so in my hastiness I forgot to post Libby's 2nd 1st birthday party. We had originally planned an outdoor party for Libby, but being the spring it was cold and looked like it was going to rain.
So we had a party a little later for her out in the park with our friends. The weather was beautiful and it was a lot of fun. There weren't too many people that could make it that day, but it was great to see the people who came. (one of our friends was a few days short of her due date, so it was great to see her).
Anyways I know this was in May, and it's really lame that I'm posting it now... but knows I might have already posted this and completely forgot. But who cares?? Libby looks so cute in this picture I don't mind seeing it again.

Libby enjoying the sunshine and the cake! We had lots of wet wipes with us, and I'm sure we used all of them.
