Today is our 8th wedding anniversary. 8 years ago today, Barry and I were married for time and all eternity in the Mesa Arizona Temple. That is starting to sound like a long time. It wouldn't seem like so long, but our 2 1/2 children are good reminders that the time has really passed. Because of all that is going on, we kept things pretty simple this year. Barry's sisters were kind enough to have the kids over for a slumber party so we could have a night to ourselves on Friday. We went to dinner and mainly spent a lot of time talking about all of the stuff we haven't had time to talk about during the week. It was nice to sleep in Sat. morning a little, instead of being awakened at 6:00am by Trenton's announcement "I'm awake, I'm awake!" or "The pees are coming!" THANK YOU MIKELLE, BOBBY, & KRISTIN!
But ours is clearly not the only anniversary this time of year! My beautiful parents have now been married 45 years as of Aug. 2!
And yesterday, my sister, Trina and her husband, Guy celebrated 13 years of marriage! (Happy Anniversary, you guys!)
I wish I had everyone's wedding pictures!
Last night we went to an anniversary celebration for Frank & Kristy Nelson--Good family friends who have been married for 30 years! I wish I could have seen that wedding picture with the powder blue tuxedo!
Anyway, Happy Anniversary to everyone out there who is making it work year after year. In tribute to our marriage here is a look back at our romance through the years.

You are too kind! That fun picture was taken at Shanda's wedding. Her colors were blue and green and all of the photos from that wedding are very cool!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!! Ahh the memories!
That is so sweet. You and your family are beautiful. Congratulations!
Hey Raynie,
I know what you mean. I have been envious of a lot of other blogs. A lot of people use photoshop which I don't have. Some use scrapbooking software. My program is jasc Paint Shop Pro 8. It is a much less expensive program than Adobe Photoshop but does a lot of the same things. The truth is that I don't really know how to use it all that well. I came up with my title bar while doing lots of research on how to make things happen. I may have to change it out as I experiment and learn more. The other fun things on my page I have just done on online sites like One Media and Rock You. I hope that answers your question. You just have to be able to save your creation as a jpeg to be able to upload it as a header. Good luck!
Kendra
p.s. I forgot to mention that I downloaded the "paper" and other fun elements from the 2 Peas website. They have several free downloads if you have a program they will work with.
