Celebrating 15 Years

Today Shaun and I are celebrating our 15th (gasp!) wedding anniversary. I think we both thought we'd be celebrating the event in somewhere like St. Thomas...

Or Mexico...

Or Aruba...

But for several reasons, we are not able to do that this year. The main reason is that at 34 weeks I look like this (which I hope is made to look worse than it actually is by the angle of a three-year-old) and the airlines would not be happy to see me show up. My doctor would not be thrilled with any length of travel time either.

Also, Shaun has a looming deadline for an apartment that has been promised to be ready for occupancy very soon and has been spending every spare moment there.
So...we will make the very best of day that we get to spend together (without children). It truly is a day to celebrate. We are celebrating the faithfulness God has shown us over these years together and the blessings He pours out on us every.day.
Shaun is my gift from God and I am so thankful He put us together. I still don't know how I managed to snag such a man, but I do know I got the best of the best. Each year has been better than the last and I look forward to all the good things God has for us in the next 15.
