This past November Rob and I celebrated 6 years of marriage. When I really think all that has happened in the last 6 years, it kind of makes my head hurt. We got married, 8 months later discovered we were pregnant...shocker. Rob started his own company. 9 months later, we had Sam. I stopped working (ouch!) to stay home with him. 4 months later we discovered again that we were pregnant...DOUBLE SHOCKER. 9 months later we had Kate. 1 week after Kate was born, we decided to put our house on the market. just to see if the timing was right to make a move to the Upstate to be closer to our families. 3 days later, full price offering and the move started with a 13 month old and a 1 week old. We had no place to go, so my parents graciously allowed us to live in their lake house for 6 months, while we made plans to BUILD...WHAT?? 7 months later we moved into our newly built home. Rob began new business from the ground up here in SC. Thinking things somewhat settled down a bit as far as major life changing events. We were in a new town, searching for our new church home and raising two babies....the Simple Life. A little over 2 years later....You guessed it, pregnant again...Maggie joined us 9 months later and now our family of Five is closed for business. The last 6 years have been fun filled with lots of ups and downs and challenges that I had no idea would be so, well, challenging, but through it all we have managed to stay grounded enough to know that God had to be at the center and had to be our rock. Without our faith, I am certain we wouldn't be where we are today. We still are managing to love each other and quite honestly love each other more and more than I ever thought possible. I am thankful and grateful for all the last 6 years has brought us, but I am very much looking forward to what is to come. I love our little life and wouldn't want it any other way:)
