Our five year wedding anniversary!!

Jake and I celebrated our five year wedding anniversary yesterday! We can't believe it has been five years! It has gone by so fast, three kids will do that! Watching our wedding video and reminiscing about our wedding day made it seem like just yesterday we were married in the San Diego temple on a beautiful and warm February day! The past five years have brought us much happiness, many special memories, many joys, many trials and we wouldn't trade any of it because these five years of marriage have made us who we are today and as Jake said to me yesterday, "These last five years have been the best years of my life!" I couldn't agree more!


A year ago we were planning on celebrating our special five year in Hawaii, but with the baby's due date the day before, we knew we would have to improvise. So we brought Hawaii to our home yesterday and made the best of it, celebrating with our boys. Jake BBQ'd (in the pouring rain!) a very yummy carribean jerk chicken with pineapple skewers, yum!

Jake is such a good sport, he even put on the Hawaiian attire
He surprised me with these lovely Hawaiian decorations too. He had me come downstairs, he blind folded me, turned on Hawaiian music and when I opened my eyes I saw this! ^^^
I set up the chocolate fountain and we dipped pineapple, grapes and bananas in it... Jonathon loved this part of dinner!!
It was so fun! We pretended the ocean was right outside our window and made a toast with our coconut glasses for another great year of marriage, learning, loving and growing together!
