Our Anniversary

Today is our 8 year anniversary.  We decided to put a $10 limit on our gifts this year... although I did cheat and get Caleb a new pair of sunglasses a couple weeks ago.  But for today, his gift was a NY steak that I'm making him for dinner tonight.  We never have steak so he will enjoy it :)

Here are some of the big things that have happened in our family in the last 8 years:
