Five years ago today, I married the most amazing man (although I should clarify the fact that we were practically children back then).

Every single day, I am so thankful that Blaine came into my life. And that he asked me to be his bride. And that I said yes.

Spending life affixed and entwined with someone who makes me laugh and smile every single day is the most enormous blessing I could have ever conjured up. To this day he is the first thing I think of when I wake up and the last thing I think of before I fall asleep (and not just because he is approximately 1.5 feet away from me). We love madly, dance often, and still cuddle….. when the AC is on:)

Just a few reasons why I madly love my husband (in no particular order):

-He takes out the trash.
-He loves to dance.
-He loves to dance with me.
-He likes to be ninja-fied.
-He cooks.
-Did I mention he cooks?
-He makes me laugh.
-He gets me Diet Cokes when I most need them, which is basically all the time.
-He sings “Shaggy” songs at Karaoke because I ask him to do so.
-He had a mullet as a child. And rocked it.
-He loves our dog child.
-He loves camping. And America.
-Did I mention he loves America?
-He doesn’t pressure me TOOOO much to make babies.
-He let’s me take pictures of his butt when we ride our tandem bicycle.
-He likes to ride on a tandem bicycle.
-He supports my crazy decisions. Like having a floor made of pennies in the bathroom (which is going to be AWESOME by the way).
-He’s hot.
-He’s a hard worker.
-He loves me.
-He’s my pool boy, and often dresses the part.

I love you Blaine! Thanks for making me the luckiest lady alive!

Love,
Wife
