10 photos on a special 10th day

yesterday was january 10th.

fifteen years ago yesterday, i married my honey on the COLDEST day of the year!

the bubbles we had were freezing in the air and dropping to the ground!

my husbands tricky brother lathered our old car with butter and food.

yum.

we left our reception early because i hate being the center of attention.

i'm thankful for days like yesterday.

days that aren't out of the ordinary, but yet, they are.

days we remember and reflect on years gone by, and all of the blessings that we have experienced.

but not without heartache.

when you're in the middle of 'life', it's so hard to see things in the big picture, but looking back, our vision seems 20/20.

we can see how God led, protected, and why He allowed the things He did.

i'm SO thankful that He is in control!

here's our day yesterday.

we arent fancy.

i woke up excited to give my honey his small things, all handmade because that's how we roll around here.

i made him this card from inspiration i saw on pinterest.

it's true!

our lil jackaroo!  how cute is he?

he tortures his mama in the best way. makes me smile every time.

those eyes!

nathan + mary = true love  :)

i don't know where this came from, but it was good.

PROOF that God knows what we need, when we need it.

i sold a few things on consignment and it came to me at JUST the right time!

stress relief.

old hymns are the best.

mid day mess.

the cutest goodies arrived for henry's foxxy party on monday!

#mybabyisturningseven wahhhhhhhh!

the look on kit cats face says it all!

free cheesecake?  

why, sure!

i loved watching my family laughing all together at the table last night.

this is what life is all about.

it's also about paper plates at every meal.

i told you, we're not fancy!

;)

so there you have it.

it was a good, good day.

:)

xo,

mary
