5th Anniversary!

So five years and 6 months ago I met this young stud!!
After dating and being engaged for only 6 short months.
We were married!!! One of the happiest days of my life!
Add two beautiful little girls!
Equals five very happy wonderful years of marriage!!
Last Friday was Jake and my fifth wedding anniversary, I can't believe that it has been five years and I also can't believe that it has only been five years! It has gone by so fast and yet I don't remember what life was like without him. It has been a blur from a wedding, to enjoying life as a couple, to the birth of our first baby girl, to being poor starving college students, to graduating with a bachelors, to moving to Florida, to still poor starving graduate college students, to the birth of our second baby girl, to an overrun of dresses and bows in Jake's life, to five years of marriage. We still have a lot to look forward to this year for the first time in our five years together we will finally be done with school this April! Hopefully we will be blessed with a job that my wonderful Husband is working his tail off trying to find right now! We can't wait to see what the next five years will bring! I love Jake so very much and could not imagine life with out him. After five years I have come to know what makes my husband so special. He is the most honest man I have ever met, even with the most hated "honey does this make me look fat!" question he cannot tell a lie! I have appreciated all our lives, him helping to teach me through hard lessons the importance of living a completely honest life even in the little things! He is the kindest most generous man, he is always making sure every last person always feels welcomed and accepted. He is a very loving father and even though I am a stay at home mom and Jake is so busy we hardly see him, it still isn't uncommon that when he is home you will always commonly see him doing dishes, changing diapers, helping get the girls to bed, ironing and even dusting! He does everything in his power to always make sure that I am happy, so if I get in my head I want and or want to do something I almost always get my way because after a lot of nagging he just can't tell me no! I am spoiled rotten with the most wonderful man on the earth. I love him so very much and can't wait for our next five years together!
