One Score

I've thought about this post frequently.
We're not ones to toot our own horn.
We like to stay behind the scenes.
We like quiet.
But, it's our 20th anniversary and
that should be celebrated.

When we were dating Dwayne gave me this:

"Things to Share with Angela"

sunrise
sunset
moon
lazy days
M & M's
Ben & Jerry's
cheese sticks
hugs
kisses
long walks
hopes
dreams
life
me

 In some ways it seems like we've known each other forever.
And yet, time has passed by quickly.
We've been through a lot in our 20 years.
Almost all of it good.
God has blessed us in so many ways.
We've had our share of not-so-fun times as well.

We've had ten vehicles.
We've moved four times.
We lived with Dwayne's parents for three years.
We're living in the only house we've ever owned.
And it's paid for.
We've never had an argument.
(We do disagree occasionally.)
We've had five dogs, two we had to bury.
We've been blessed with two boys.
We lost a baby.
We lost jobs.
We were baptized together.
Dwayne baptized both boys.
We've been through minor surgeries.
We've been through brain surgery.
We've been to Tennessee more times than I can count.

Things We Share Now

long walks
chocolate
baseball
Bible
hugs
kisses
laughter

Connor
camping
dog
porch swing
life
each other
