Five Years

So, Stacey and I recently celebrated our five year anniversary. It has been an amazing five year. Between us, we have earned 3.5 degrees, had over 7 jobs, had two kids, lived in five houses, visited four countries, lived in three states (or, I guess more accurately, two states and a commonwealth), and owned six barbecue grills. It has been a great time. In any event, I wanted to get Stacey something made of wood (5 years being the wood anniversary), and I wanted it to have something to do with what we were celebrating--our having been sealed together as a couple for eternity. So, I commissioned my craftsman-brother to do a wood burning on the Washington D.C. temple, where we were married. He was able to burn the temple and ship it to me, and, I was pretty impressed with his handiwork: It has been an amazing five years, and I am so glad to have been sealed to Stacey in the temple, and to have Jacob and Rebecca benefiting from that sealing. I am anxious and excited for what the next ∞ - 5 years with Stacey will bring.
