2 years ago

2 years ago today, the hubs came home from his mission! I was a complete bundle of nerves that day and couldn't believe that after waiting 2 long years, he was finally home for good! It's been an amazing 2 years since he's been home. Let's look at some of the things we've done since then, shall we?

-We got engaged(obviously)
-I got my endowments
-We got married(again obvious)
-We've been to Disney World twice
-We almost burned down our first apartment
-We've welcomed 1 niece and 2 nephews into the family
-We took our first trip to Logan and had Aggie ice cream
-We took our first road trip
-We visited Derek's mission
-I had my first trip to Washington and fell in love with Seattle
-We moved into my parents basement
-We paid off all our debt aside from student loans
-We bought our first adult purchase in the form of a TV on Black Friday
-We inherited a car that is solely in our names, no one else
-We've been to 3 midnight premieres
-We got our first puppy, a purebred dachshund named Charlie, for free

There's lots more I'm sure but those are the big things that I can think of right now. I just can't believe he's already been home for 2 years. The whole waiting 2 years seemed to take forever but these past 2 years have flown by, seriously. Waiting for him, marrying him, and getting to love him for the rest of eternity is the best thing I've ever done for myself. He's amazing and was totally worth the wait :)
