In the beginning it was puppy love. As time went by our relationship was tested. We had our moments... these hardships have helped us grow. We've learned to eliminate the idea of divorce at the beginning of our marriage which has been one of the success factors in our relationship. We work through our differences, and difficulties. We love each other for who they are, we love their faults.
We've been through 4 surgeries, 3 dogs, 3 cars, 1 seizure, 2 apartments, 1 house, and a whole LOT of love.
Today I feel so blessed; Tim and I celebrated our 8th year of marriage.

I went to work part of my shift, but upon my arrival at home Tim met me with beautiful roses. I of course had to give him a blunt signal, but that works for us. Not hidden message, just say what you mean.

We went to dinner to our favorite restaurant at the Olive Garden. We enjoyed our food, dessert, and each others company. We finished the evening by coming home and relaxing...

Today, Thirty-two years ago, was the day that Timothy John Jensen came into this world. Though it was a difficult birth, being premature...He has been a blessing in the lives of those around him. I had the pleasure of meeting him November of 2002, and ever since have been involved in the celebration of this incredible man.
We kept the day low key for once, Tim started his day early in the morning with my birthday card to him; filled with a cash surprise. Tim went to work as usual, and came home to BBQ Chicken and Baked Potatoes. We later enjoyed some Banana Cream Pie when his parents came over to wish him a Happy Birthday, and give him his gift. With helpful advise from me, Tim's parents gave him a 2 terabyte external hard drive which he's hooked up to the wireless router and shown me the drive where I may store my files!
Tim's Mom was so kind to bring a home made banana cream pie, but without communicating with each other I also had a banana cream pie, however I purchase mine. Marians pie was sure delicious, and guess who's left with the remains???? This is doing no good to my weight loss!
Tim also received a card in the mail from my parents with more cash. All in mall for a low key birthday I know Tim enjoyed his day!
