15 Year Anniversary!

Seems crazy it has been that long ago since this day...
February 26, 2000
 So much has happened in 15 years...
February 26, 2015
I woke up to this on the counter and I loved that Lars did this. He really knows the way to my heart after all these years.
(Chocolate and memories)
 Oh and clothes ;)
Anyway I thought this was such a fun idea. I spent about an hour that afternoon writing down so many random things, memories from the time we got married until now. He had stayed up late and written down all of his the night before, then we went to dinner with the boys that night at El Toro and took our bags of memories and pulled out and read about half of them. The boys loved this too and Gunnar starting asking if he could write down some of his own when he got home. He is so cute :)
 
I loved thinking back to so many funny, silly, random things. Lots of the ones we each wrote were the same, but there were a lot of others that either he or I wrote that the other hadn't thought of. So much fun!
And I love this picture :)
 Funny that it kind of looks like we're in a big city or something...haha.
We loved having the boys along to celebrate our anniversary with us that night and to hear all of our memories...of course more than half of them had to do with them!
We opened the rest when we got home that night and Gunnar sat down and wrote 5 or 6 of his own.
We sure have had our ups and downs over these 15 years and have done so many fun things and made amazing memories...as well as had hard times, and I am always so grateful for a good husband and of course grateful for Ashton and Gunnar. Time flies...
We made plans to celebrate by staying over night in Salt Lake on Saturday...that's up next!
