Through the years...

Tonight is our engagement anniversary... I had to hunt for pictures of just Tim and I together that were good... most of them were with the kids. We love our kids but I wanted this post to be just about him and I.
We have been through a lot together and I can not help but be sentimental about all the joys and sorrows that we have shared together and know that there will be more a long the way, the road will never be perfect there will be bumps and detours but as long as we are together we will weather it through.
Celebrating a milestone ... graduation from Nursing School!

Can't you tell? We are in love!


Heading out to attend Lean's wedding


Yup, he cleans up nice!



I think we look good together - if I say so myself!




Formula One Race!

We stopped by at this courthouse in Greensburg, Indiana. As you can see there is a tree growing inside the building.
We were on our way to Argosy Casino to celebrate my birthday.

Jenny (my sis-in-law), Joe and Me!
Indy 500

What I wore on Tim and I's "unofficial"first date



What he wore!
It seems like this is his traditional outfit for any of the races we have been to since then. Tim would wear his shorts the first time the sun is out it does not matter wheather it is in the middle of winter.

Tim proposed while we were in Ft Myers. He and I took our usual drive around his parents neighborhood with his Dad's golf cart. We spent most of the day in the beach and was tired but wanted some alone time. We were standing in front of the gate leading into the neighborhood pool when he asked me to marry him.

Happy Engagement Anniversary!

This was a fun place in the Upper Peninsula


Too funny!

Collecting rocks.

Walking back up to the cabin.


Here is the cabin that we stayed at. It was beautiful! We loved it!
It was right on Au Train River.
Tim did all the planning (as always) he does a great job putting together our family vacations. One of the many things that he is good at.
