Today hubby and I have been married for 5 years. Even though we’ve been married for 5 years, we’ve been together for I guess 11 and a half. It seems like a long time but it just kind of sneaks up on you. This also means we’ve been in Houston for almost 5 years. We’ve certainly had a lot of fun and have had our share of struggles. Hubby was in law school for our first 3 years and the next half year was his studying for the bar, taking the exam, and waiting for results. 5 years is a pretty good milestone to celebrate, but since we are still struggling with kicking off hubby’s career we’ve got limited funds. A few years ago we talked about a trip to Costa Rica for our 5 year anniversary (or I guess it would have to be more like 5.5 since our anniversary is in June, which would be winter in Costa Rica). But maybe we will need to save that trip for a future celebration. We had a nice dinner Sunday evening and we’ll go out to dinner again today to celebrate. At least we get to be together this year – in several previous years he had his summer army training during our anniversary so he was away and we had to celebrate early or late. So, anyway, happy anniversary to us
