Anniversary

Ben and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary on the 9th of october this year.. I cant believe its been 5 years already... It's been a crazy ride and we've been through soo much together... We've been talking about marriage more and more lately... but of course after we get out of our parents' houses... This year we had such a great weekend.. First we went to dinner and then headed off to the Pumpkin Patch... which was a blast and probably the best anniversary date we've ever had... We went on a hayrack ride... shot some apples out of a sling shot... went through a kiddie haunted house (since i dont like haunted houses) and picked out a pumpkin (which we'll be carving this week!!!) :) and then we had a nice relaxing saturday together and watched some college football.... the only thing that gets me around our anniversary every year is the anniversary of my dad passing... i know it sounds morbid and sort of takes the joy out of it but Ben had asked me to be exclusive the week before my dad passed away and the next week we decided to make the trip to michigan to see my dad and for ben to meet him... and thats when he passed away... ben hardly got to meet my dad and it just breaks my heart that they really only got to say hello before all the chaos began... he's been with me through the hardest things in my life so far and i'm glad its been him by my side all these years and i wouldn't change it for the world...
