wow - 6 years already!

Wow - it has been 6 years since we got married (on Saturday - June 26th). In some ways it feels like we have always been together (this year is the anniversary of us knowing each other for 10 years) - and in some ways it is hard to believe we have been married for 6 years already. I am thankful to be married to my best friend and these years have been such a joy. For our anniversary we had a staycation weekend in Charlotte. It really felt like such a long vacation and it was awesome! We took the kids up to the Dyers' house on Friday evening and left them for the weekend (thanks Bampa and Gammy). Friday night we went to dinner and a movie. Saturday we slept in (as in 8 am was the latest I could sleep) and got bagels for breakfast. After breakfast we spent the day at the US Whitewater center which is in Charlotte. If you are in Charlotte you should definitely go - it was so much more fun than I could even imagine. We started the day there with the climbing wall.
On which I completed 3/3 of my runs and Adam completed 0/3 (I still love you babe). Most posed picture in the history of pictures... (thank you to my facebook friends for pointing that one out). After climbing we did flatwater kayaking and then hightailed it out of there in time to catch the US versus Ghana World Cup game at our favorite bar (Picassos) with some friends. After we unfortunately watched the US lose that game we went back out to the Whitewater Center to do the high ropes course and the zip line. We finished the evening with a late dinner and TCBY. Sunday we slept in (slightly later this time) and went to church before meeting Bampa and Gammy to pick up the kiddos at lunchtime. We had a blast and it was so great to spend so much time together, to sleep in in our own beds, and to celebrate 6 years of marriage. Thanks be to God!
