Today is our 7th anniversary. I can hardly believe it's been that long (until I look at the pictures and realize how much younger we were then). 7 years ago we were married in the Spokane Temple for time and all eternity.
And it may be hard to believe, but I love him more now than I ever thought possible then.
A lot has happened in the last few years and it is amazing to see how far we've come. When we met we were just two starving students at Ricks College and now we are two starving medical residents with almost 4 kids and a mountain of student debt. It is amazing to see how the Lord has blessed Andersen and I, and our not so little family. It has been fun to watch our family grow...
and grow...
and grow!
I love my boys and am so grateful for the life that Andersen and I have together. He works so hard for our family and I know that the Lord picked him just for me.We actually celebrated our anniversary a few weekends ago, when we knew Andersen would have the time off from work. Thanks to the generous offer of my mom to watch the boys overnight we were able to have a romantic evening to ourselves. Dinner, a movie, and all without the boys?!? Who could ask for more. But Andersen once again out-did himself with this beautiful note he wrote me.
Does that not show how wonderful he is? Along with the card came a copper (we know it's not really made from copper) penny and a beautiful cashmere wrap. Andersen was told that cashmere was a form of wool, a much more expensive form. I am so lucky to have such an incredible guy. Like I've said before, sorry ladies, I'm already married to the most wonderful man on earth!

That is so sweet. I can't believe you have been married less time than us and have more kids. It freaks me out a little.
Well, this last one was a bit of a surprise. Otherwise it may have been a while.
How awesome AnnMarie!! 7 years is a great accomplishment! It sounds like you have a definite keeper!! Exciting to think you have eternity to share with him!
ohmygosh that is the sweetest thing! I love the pics of you guys and your growing family. (You look the same as your wedding day, girl!) Anderson really looks like your boys in that second picture. And the cake--what fun! You're too nice...during our reception, I promised NO HONEYMOON if he smashed cake in my face!
i love your wedding pictures! you two are the cutest couple! you're so good to smash cake! shawn was fearful for his life if he did that to me! i was worried about pictures. the smashed cake would have made me smear my makeup and i knew that wouldn't be pretty. :) i love your post! so cute! i may have to copy on our anniversary in february. a whole 4 years. woohoo.
Congratulations on 7 years.... It goes by all too fast! Believe me I am feeling it about now, Scott are I celebrate 25 (gulp)on the 12th! Like you I wouldn't change a thing! Best wishes for the next 7 years and beyond!
Cute wedding pictures. Happy Anniversary! I love how you showed all the pictures of your family growing. I don't think I know what you are having. How are you doing? You are getting pretty close right? What rotation is Anderson doing now? Have a good night. Kami
Happy Anniversary!! I love the way you were able to tell your story through pictures. Your blog is great!!
Congratulations you guys! 7 years! Your wedding photos are beautiful, I've only seen the one at Mom and Dad Grigg's house. That card that Andersen gave you was so cute. Do you think Andersen could give Aaron a few pointers, our 3 year anniversary is at the end of this month. Just kidding. He's very good at that. Mom Grigg must have raised her boys right!
CONGRATS!!!!!
What happen to the brother who never did much more than grunt! Andy obviously made it okay through that phase. Happy Anniversary!
