For the past 4 years

You’ve been my #1 <3

us (2)

You stuck with me while I finished out school, and supported me as I figured out what I’m supposed to do in my life,

and I stuck with you while the military made our major life decisions.

us (4)

I didn’t get to see you quite as much as I’d like to,

but I’d rather have 30 seconds with you than 30 years with anyone else.

Can’t wait to see what the next 4 years have in store for us 😉

    Happy anniversary, Gina! I bet this will be the best one yet. Having our baby girl with us for our 4th anniversary today (anniversary twins?) has been the icing on the cake.

    Happy Anniversary! 🙂 I hope you guys have a great time at HLS! Your relationship making it through the long haul of the military/deployment always gives me more hope about my own long distance relationship and that it is doable!

  25. Averie @ Love Veggies and Yoga on August 18, 2011 at 3:09 pm

    Happy Anniversary to such a wonderful couple!! I love your anniversary posts and like I said in my comment to you last night, I can’t believe it’s been 12 whole months since the last one…the year truly has flown by for me!

    I can’t wait to see your marriage grow, blossom, and evolve even deeper once SHE is born 🙂

  26. Amy @ purewellnessamy on August 18, 2011 at 3:18 pm

    Happy Anniversary! I have a hard time believing that we’ll be celebrating our 7th this year! Where does time go?!? Anyway, I hope you have a romantic celebration planned!

  27. Sylvia on August 18, 2011 at 3:22 pm

    Happy Anniversary!!! Your coming home pictures make me tear up and just so excited for my own coming home. I’ve been away from my hubby for far too long on my own TDY. I relate very much to the “30 seconds with you instead of 30 years with anyone else.” Congratulations to you, your pilot and your little one and may you have at least another 40 years 🙂

  28. Michelle on August 18, 2011 at 3:29 pm
