Way back in July 2012...

We celebrated our 10th Anniversary!!  We went to LA for two nights sans chitlens (thanks to our fabulous parents).  We spent a day at the J. Paul Getty Museum, played on the beach after dark, ate really, really well, went to the temple on our actual anniversary, attended Frozen Planet in Concert at the Hollywood Bowl, went shopping, saw Spiderman 3 in IMAX 3D and overall had a fabulous time!

Right before our anniversary, we were on a road trip and I wrote down some of the major highlights in the last decade for us.  In our first decade of marriage, we:
-earned 4 degrees
-traveled to Italy, NYC, SF, Zion and Yosemite National Parks, Jackson Hole, WY and various places in So. Cal, Utah and Idaho
-given birth to 3 children who are blessed and healthy
-Daniel taught at one middle school and worked at the district office
-worked on 8 different units as a registered nurse (most of those when I was in the float pool)
-Sarah has run 1 marathon, 3 1/2 marathons, 2 mini-triathlons (don't laugh, Jake) & many other races
-Daniel is a great cheerleader and has run a couple 5Ks :)
-lived in 4 different places
-bought two houses
-bought two new cars ('04 Honda Accord, '08 Honda Odyssey)
-broadened our palates (who knew sushi was so delectable?)
-been to spectacular museums
-visited the hospital many times with our children (broken leg, stitches, concussion, William)
-said good-bye to 2 pet frogs, 2 grandparents and 2 aunts
-welcomed 3 new brother-in-laws and 3 new sister-in-laws to our family (we were the first to get married:))
-served at church as Young Women President, in the Relief Society Presidency, taught Primary twice, activity committee chair for Sarah; Young Men president twice, executive secretary, membership clerk, 2nd counselor in the Bishopric, Elder's quorum presidency and High Council

We've laughed, cried, fought, made-up, learned and grown a ton.  Daniel Todd is not only handsome and intelligent, he is my best friend and I am lucky girl to call him mine.
