10 years... going strong

July 1st was our 10 yr wedding anniversary. Our anniversary will always be a holiday (Canada Day) and will always include fireworks. Easy!

We spent the morning hanging out and then the doorbell rang. My mom and dad surprised us with brunch. They brought everything, including the milk and eggs...and Tim Hortons coffee.

They had me at the coffee.

They cooked up a storm and then went on with their day.

Love it.

We spent the afternoon enjoying a swim and bb-que with friends and once the twins were in bed, we snuggled up with Cole and a movie.

10 years ago, we were partying up a storm, excited to be husband and wife, respectful of one another and planning a future together. I blinked and 10 years passed us by. 5 houses later and 3 kids added to the mix...I can honestly say, nothing has changed. Respect, love and laughter fill our home and our lives daily. No gifts were needed, no evening out, no card to file away...the way Tim looks at me, and the way I feel about him is our gift to eachother.

Happy 10 years Tim, all my love

PS: he did surprise me with a fantastic gift...it includes airline tickets and no kids! Stay tuned.
