Today marks our 11th Anniversary. At this time 11 years ago, I was winding up the California coast in my wedding dress with a hot groom in a two seater Honda CR-X. It had been a long day, a bit overcast, but perfect for photos. We had family and grandparents with us at our sealing in Oakland Temple, and dear dear dear friends. Since then, we've spent quite a few anniversaries apart, so it's nice to have one together this year. The children and I all went out to Thanksgiving Point to have a picnic with Matthew between rain and hail storms. And that about summarizes our first decade. Grab the good times while you can, it looks like hail!
Lived in 5 different states
Attended school in two
Moved our family at least 12 times
Have three kids - each one about 4 years apart
Together visited Europe, and Matthew went to South America,
and we have more friends than we can count.
What a wild ride! And its not over yet. Hang on darling, we've got another decade ahead...
It's overwhelming - almost to tears - to select pictures over this time frame and realize how much we've done together. Matthew is my best friend. He's a wonderful provider, an excellent father, and someone you want in the foxhole with you.
Cheers darling, I love you!

Happy Anniversary! I love looking at old photos of people (heaven knows everyone has seen enough of them on my blog...)! I didn't know Matthew was a Secret Service intern - how cool!

Hey Katrina! I love your up-do in the photo with the white blouse! SO - thanks for the advice you posted for me. I can really wrap my head around a to do list that starts and ends with eating! I love that you have stayed in touch with all the Chandler folk even after moving. Good on ya mate! I wish we could have rematched you two in Settlers of Zarahemla!
