Five years of marriage

June 28, 2013 by Katie Noah Gibson

Two houses. Three cars. Two master’s degrees (one for each of us). Seven jobs and multiple freelance gigs (between the two of us). Two churches. One new nephew, followed closely by one new niece.

Two high school reunions. One cross-country move (totaling more than 2200 miles). Twenty or more weekend getaways. Countless dinner dates and bowls of guacamole, kisses and hugs and a few arguments, quiet evenings in the living room watching Friends or reading or doing the crossword.

So many Sundays singing next to one another. Five Easters, five Thanksgivings, five Christmases. Hundreds of ordinary days, spent blissfully together.

Happy fifth anniversary, love. I can’t wait for the next five.

Happy anniversary! We just celebrated seven years on Sunday. Marriage is wonderful, and it seems like you have a wonderful partnership. Thanks for sharing pieces of your life together!

Congrats! Five years is a milestone, for sure. It’s not always easy…but most of the time, it’s so worth it, isn’t it?

Congratulations! I love how pithy you wrote that post and the photos you chose! Here’s to popping champagne to another five (at least ).
Be well, Cindy
