10 years

Today we celebrate our 10th Wedding Anniversary. Garrett surprised me with a large, wrapped box. Inside it was a card that said he was good for an I.O.U. I put the card aside and went on with my morning. He kept asking me if I was disappointed. I told him I wasn't and continued to get the kids ready for school. A few minutes later I noticed another gift on my bed. I brought it out for family scripture study and decided to open it in front of the kids. In this box was another wrapped box...and in it was another, smaller wrapped box...and in that smaller box was a tiny box...a RING box to be exact. I opened it and beheld my missing wedding ring!! Not only was it sparkling like new but I had a band of diamonds on either side of my original engagement ring! I was so surprised. He had worked months in advance with our jeweler in Utah to get this done for our anniversary. I jumped on his lap and showered him with kisses...to which all my kids chanted GROSS!
I couldn't have asked for a more symbolic gift to celebrate spending one whole decade with this incredible man.
Happy Anniversary!!
