Day 3- Countdown to our Fourth Wedding Anniversary

Year 3

June 2009-June 2010

During our third year we embarked on a wonderful huge new adventure called home ownership. I think this is one of the best things for our marriage! It has helped us learn many lessons such as working together, compromise, and taking care of what God has given us.
