5 Years

Today marks five years since Brian and I went on our first date and four years since we got engaged. 

I found a card that says the things I wanted to say more eloquently than I could say them myself:

I love you.  Not just for everything you do as a husband and a father, but for the way you do it...your humor and patience, your commitment to our home and family show such caring and love...I can't imagine sharing my life and raising a family with anyone else but you.  

Thank you, Hallmark!  Er (actually) Carlton Cards.  Tonight, we get to celebrate with monkey bread dessert and Saturday is date night!  Woot! 

My "Pretty" Blog

 

I realize that I have been bad (okay, terrible) about keeping this blog up to date.  You may think that I'm a big ol' blog slacker.  When it comes to this blog, you'd be right.  

In contrast, I have been working hard on making my pretty blog pretty and posting good, new content every single weekday. 

I know that many of you have already found my other blog, but for those of you that haven't, I thought I'd share the link.  It is www.graceandlight.typepad.com.  Or, you can just click on the photo above and it will take you there.  

I am not abandoning this site.  I like to put more of our personal/family photos here and smaller stories that maybe don't feel blog-worthy at "grace and light."   But, it seems to be true that I am more dedicated to that one, just now.  So, if you are just dying to know more about what's going on in the Petermann world (or at least the brooke world), you can get regular updates there.
