3 years.

It's our three year anniversary today! It feels like it's flown by...but I think I can safely say we've been through quite a bit. I was counting earlier, we've moved 7 times (yes, 7) since we've been married. We're pros at it. We could do it with our hands behind our back. Our 7th move was just last week. We moved in with Kyle's Grandma Hardy-Bassett. We're in the basement, and we'll be here until Grandma gets back from her mission, which she'll leave for in November. It's a good feeling to know that we're settled in a place for at least a year and a half and we won't have to move a stinking thing until then. Whew! It's been a long time coming!

On a more serious note, we've had our share of hard times, too. This isn't something I normally broadcast, but I've been pregnant 3 times since Kyle and I have been married. My first miscarriage was just a few months after we were married, and my second just more than a year after that. It was difficult to come out of the slump of that, and for a bit I worried maybe it just wasn't in the cards for us to have kids. That's when we found out we were pregnant with Beckham. I've learned everything happens for a reason, and Heavenly Father knows when things are best for us in our lives. Beck was worth every second of heartache and pain to get him here, and I wouldn't ask for it any other way! He's perfect, and knowing how much it took to bring him into our family makes me cherish our little guy even more than I already would have.

All of the experiences Kyle and I have had throughout our marriage have brought us closer. I truly do believe that Heavenly Father gives us trials and happy moments in our lives for us to learn and grow from and that's what makes life soooo sweet. Right?! I'm done being mushy now. Let's look at some of the ridiculous statistics of our marriage.

Moves: 7
Cars: 5 (not all at the same time, of course) and 1 scooter with flame helmet included
Phones (KYLE): 7 (one fell in the ocean, one in the toilet, one through the wash, one with a seriously cracked screen)
Laptops: 2 (one ruined in a rainstorm)
Other various technological things: 9 (Sell this one here, get this one, trade this for that, buy this one, take it back 2 months later, etc. etc.)
Jobs Combined: 8 (this includes the job at Bank of America that Kyle was hired for...and then let go from before his first day.....long story!)
Semesters of school combined: 5
States we've been to: 14
Pounds Gained: Unknown

Alright..after writing that...our lives are ridiculous. If we can make it through that, we can make it through anything! Let's be real! Here's to infinity more years!
