Anniversary

Yesterday was our 7th Anniversary. It is so hard to believe it has been 7 years, 2 kids, 3 moves, and 3 churches since we stood up in front of everyone and exchanged vows. Here is what we did to celebrate:
Friday, we ditched the kids with Kristin's mom for the weekend. Then we realized we had nothing to do. So we drove around a bit and just talked, kind of like when we first started dating. It was fun, but gas prices are soooo much higher, so we had to cut that short.
Saturday, we had a wedding to go to in the Woodlands, and we joined up with Wally and Crissy Wellborn for the trip. We also got to see a lot of college friends ( I almost typed "old" in front of college, but decided people might get the wrong idea.) The trip home was filled with exhausted Karaoke-ing with the radio. Be glad you weren't there. Sunday we picked the girls up and then went to the Gate to talk about how the church has lost the passion for Christ in the analogy of the Church being the bride of Christ. I didn't think about this series falling at the same time as our anniversary, so I had to clarify that Kristin and I were just fine. Monday, I took a half day and we all went for ice cream.
No, it wasn't the most exciting Anniversary event (that's later when we go to Colorado for a week in August), but it was so great getting to spend time with Kristin kind of like it was before we had kids. And after 7 years we still love each other. A whole bunch.
