Five Sweet Years

Somehow, right in the middle of family visits, crazy summer days and all the other stuff life had going on, Kim and I hit five years.

Five sweet years with an amazing woman.

I got her some flowers and a ring to match her engagement ring, and we managed to carve out a little time for just us.

The cards pretty much said the rest.

We headed to Cooper’s on 5th in Valley Junction for dinner, had a really nice meal, and then made our way back to Ankeny and finished the night dancing in The District.

Nothing over the top.

Just a really great night with my best friend.

Five years has gone fast. We’ve packed a lot of life, a lot of miles, a lot of laughs and a whole lot of adventures into that time.

I’m grateful.

I’m pretty damn lucky.

And I can’t wait to see what the next five — and all the ones after that — have in store for us.
