Today Dan and I are celebrating our TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY! We always planned on some awesomely spectacular celebration for our 10 year mark.... instead we are going to school, helping kids with homework, doing our own homework, cooking dinner, doing the dishes, watching Glenn Beck and Project Runway and updating the blog. Funny how life gets in the way. We did get each other a little something. I got a beautiful bouquet and a Reece's Whipped (seriously yummy - try it) and I bought Dan a couple of books he has been drooling over.
So maybe for our 20 year anniversary we will plan on that awesome cruise to the Caribbean or a romantic tour through Italy or maybe we will be working and spending time with our adult child(Ryleigh will be 21!), sending off a Missionary (Spencer will be almost 19!), Getting ready for a High School Graduation (Ethan will be 17!!) and sending our baby into Young Women's (Livy will be nearly 12). It is crazy to think like that because it is still so far away but in all honesty I can't believe how fast the last 10 years has flown past us, and I am sure the next 10 will be just as speedy!
I love you Dan!

To read--and see--how you love one another and take care of your family give me such a thankful heart! Life is wonderful.
Sounds like your 10 year was celebrated with all the most important things - you two and your family. I love you all very much.
P.S. I hope you can do something romantic for your 20th also.
Happy 10 years! Glad you guys enjoyed your day despite it still involving lots of homework! {haha} WE miss you guys and love you all!
What a heartfelt and endearing essay, Jeni. It's very obvious that you two love one another very much - and are very much on the same page!! That's more priceless than money, trips or anything else, in this day and age. It gives you an emotionally secure family, a purpose in life and joy in each day! Congratulations!! And, oh!, by the way: Ken and I went to San Diego on our honeymoon (13 years ago) and vowed we would go back each year on our anniversary. Well, guess what! We just got there this past weekend - for the FIRST time since our honeymoon!! HA!! We're all just doing our best - trying to get by! Love you guys tons!
