Ryon and I at the Oakland Temple
Four years ago today Ryon and I were married in the Oakland Temple. How time flies! When I woke Ryon up this morning (I had been up since 6:00 with Hoyt) he looked at me and said, "four years of wedded bliss"! I do believe he was being a bit facetious, but it really has been four great years.
Soon after we were married we heard a sacrament meeting talk from a member of our stake presidency, in which he told the congregation to make a list of the things we loved about our spouses. A few days later I received an email at work from Ryon entitled "Sacrament Meeting Assignment." Here are a few of the things that he listed:
I love you because:
1. You are beautiful both inside and out
2. You are dang funny
3. You are dang smart too
4. You go coyote hunting with me
5. You already know what to get me for my birthday
6. You look great in Camo
I was amazed that he had remembered the "assignment," because I hadn't! So, I responded to his email with a list of my own. Here are some of the things I listed:
I love you because:
1. You honor your priesthood
2. You can always make me laugh
3. You save money like no man I know (I am typing this with gritted teeth!)
4. You are a hard worker
5. You can fix almost anything!
6. You are handsome and easy to wake up to in the morning
I printed out the emails and have them saved. I run across them every so often and smile when I read them. Happy Anniversary Sweets!

I can't believe it's been 4 years. Reading your post I got a little teary eyed. That was such a great day. We were so happy for Ryon and for you. We really miss you guys. Every once in awhile I'll make some comment about buying skim milk because it is cheaper and we will laugh. Ryon is still making us laugh. RJ and I just celebrated our 13 on August 12. Time goes by way to fast. We love you guys and really miss you.
