Eight years ago today, I did a super smart thing and married Daniel Stewart. You can read about everything that led up to that day in our love story. (Aww. Or gag…depending on how you feel about sappy love stories.)

Here’s a few posts I’ve written about the married life that I thought I’d share to commemorate the day. (Also, we’re going on our second date without the baby in a year! I plan to eat ALL the sushi. And lounge at the table for hours. Having un-interrupted conversation!)

    Congratulations! I read you love story for the first time today and it reminds me of mine…..high school sweethearts…..break up in high school…..get back together…..break up when I left for University…..get back together……marriage. We have now been married for (oh my) 21 years next month and have 5 beautiful children. So much to look forward to in the coming years. Enjoy your date, the quiet time and the years to come.
