4 Years of Love

4 years ago today, Derek and I were getting ready to start our lives as a married couple! It's so crazy to think that it's already been 4 years since we took those vows and began wearing the rings that would symbolize our wonderful relationship. It's been an amazing marriage so far and we grow closer together each day!

I did want to share a few things that I absolutely love about our marriage and my wonderful hubby:
* I love our little notebook that we write notes in to each other and hide around the house for the other to find.
* It's so cliche to say that we know what the other is thinking, but it's so very true! I love that we could say one word and the other knows what we're referencing or talking about.
* I love receiving emails with three little words that can make a bad day at work do a 180.
* I love that my husband rubs me to sleep every night. And yes, I mean every night. I'm extremely lucky!
* I love the nights we sit on the porch and talk. (We call it "porching")
* I love that neither of us want to leave the house without a goodbye kiss.
* I love that we've genuinely never gone to bed mad at the other.
* I love that we hold hands every single time we pray in church.
* I love that Derek will slow down his pace in order to stay with me when we're on a run
* I love our grocery shopping trips because Derek always ends up making them entertaining
* I love playing Sorry together when we're bored.

Quote from our wedding program:
Soulmates. 2 halves of the same soul joined together in life's journey.

Proverbs 3:5-6 (Our wedding scripture)
Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight
