Happy Anniversary!


Today is our 4 year anniversary! I remember when we were dating and engaged and time couldn't go any slower. Time has flown since then. Can I just say how much I love him??? Seriously! Except for that crappy year he spent in Iraq, I have loved every part of being married to him. Of course I still loved being married to him while he was gone, I just missed him so so so much! He shows me every single day how a husband should treat his wife. I am so grateful that my girls will see him as an example and hopefully look for nothing less when the time comes for them to find their husband.


Reasons I love Corky:

*Instead of watching TV when he has free time, he plays his guitar so that he can be better at singing songs to his little girls or with them.

* He helps me stay in good spiritual habits that I easily can fall out of. (prayer, scriptures study, FHE)

*He cleans the kitchen EVERY DAY after dinner! He is truly "the man!"

* Even though I am not "scared" of spiders, big ones (black widows) give me that creepy, crawley feeling....so he kills the spiders for me!

* He pretends not to care when I switch back and forth between Jay Leno and David Letterman because I never can decide who I like better. He prefers Dave.

* He likes to dance and is pretty dang good too.

* He does his best to serve and magnify his church callings.

* I love how he lights up when he sees one/both of his daughters!

* He has great study habits and discipline.

* He is very social and easy to get along with or feel comfortable with.

* He tries to talk "gangsta" and it makes me laugh.

* Most everything he does makes me laugh.

* He is becoming a pretty good golfer. (sounds kind of superficial but I think its great because he has been practicing and working hard and so its exciting)

* He isn't shy.

*He thinks BEFORE he talks.

* He will massage my gross, ugly feet anytime I ask him too.

* He hates his job, but you wouldn't know it when he comes home. He is always in a happy mood.

* He helps me see logic through emotions.

*Listens to me rant and rave, even when he doesn't agree.

* He is rarely wrong, but when he is...he is the first to admit it. (I totally admire, because I have a hard time with that)

*He is competitive in everything, from any kind of sport to board game....especially dominoes.

* He shares with me my obsession for LOST and understands (or humors me) my obsession with THE OFFICE. He is my very own "Jim Halpert"!

* He is very consistent with our kids and their rules and schedules.

* He loves the gospel and tries each day to be a good example of it.

And I know I have said this before already but

* He is just SO FUNNY! I am always laughing at his jokes and goofines.

The list could go on and on and I know that as soon as I post this, more reasons will pop into my head that just HAVE TO be on the list. It is truly neverending.

Corky, if you're reading this, I hope you know that you are the best, most favorite thing that has happened to me and for me!

thanks guys! Crystal, YES! We were "officially" engaged for 6 LONG months. He was attending West Point and was not allowed to be married until he graduated. He graduated and 2 weeks later we were hitched. :)

Pam! I need to post some video of Corky and Gracey singing "Gracey's song" together. It is the cutest thing ever. Thanks again for giving us that great song.
