Today is 4 years exactly since we got married...and what a crazy four years! They were definitely not great, easy years, but times of stretching and growing. There has been a lot of laughter and fun times, but there has also been many, many tears and lots of pain. Overall, I think our experiences have brought us closer together and closer to God. So, that does make them good years!
On a lighter side, we sat down together and made a little quiz to see how well you know us (sorry Deb, I stole your idea - it was just too good!), or to allow you to know us a little better. No peaking at the answers!!!!

2. How many places/houses have we lived?
3. How many siblings does Michelle have?
4. How many siblings does Stephen have?

12. What is Stephen's favorite sports team?

16. What does Michelle hope to do in the future?
17. How many children do they want?

Happy Anniversary!
What beautiful photos! They look like they should be in a wedding magazine. I hope you guy have a chance to go out and celebrate!
Believe it or not this was a friend of our family (Teresa Stevens for those that may read this) and it was her very first wedding by herself!!! Pretty amazing job, I thought. We had so many great pictures - I wanted to post more but didn't want it to be overwhelming :) :)
I am staying at work through lunch so that I can leave early and we are just doing something simple like dinner and a movie or something. At least we can get away!
Four years, wow! We hope you guys have a wonderful anniversary today. :)
Happy anniversary.
Hey guys Happy Anniversary! So many anniversary's in August!!:) I loved the quiz, and I did get a lot of the questions right! Love yahs!
Happy Anniversary!! Can you believe it has been four years? I can't believe that we will both be celebrating our fifth anniversary next year!! I have great memories of your wedding!! About camping, we are still open that weekend!! We like both parks (BC and McCormicks), BC would be nice because it is close to Nashville if we want to walk around but Mccormicks is unique and beautiful too!! (that cool waterfall) So we will have to think about it!! Have a great time today!!
Happy Anniversary to my son and daughter.
Now I've left one for you as well as Lynnette:)
Also happy 14th month to you Titus my beautiful grandson
Love Mom
