NINE YEARS?! And Photo Challenge: Inspiration

Today is my ninth wedding anniversary!  I can't believe it's been 9 years!  Thanks to my awesome Hubby for always putting up with me and being the best husband and father in the world!

Since it's our anniversary today, I chose my inspiration along that line.  I did not take this picture, I was all of 7 years old when it was taken.  It's a photo of my Grandparents at their 40th Wedding Anniversary party.  When my Grandfather passed in 2004, they had been married for 54 years.  They loved each other very much, so today I use them as inspiration for longevity in my own marriage.  Marriage is hard, and I'm probably not the easiest person in the world to be married to.  Adam lets me be me, lets himself be the person that I can always dump on.  He almost never gets mad and is never in a bad mood for long.  I'm so lucky to have him as my husband!
