7 years and counting

So today is Tad and mine 7 year wedding anniversay. I cannot believe it has been 7 years...they have gone by sooo fast!! Sure there are has been some rough spells, but they have all been well worth it!! Tad is one amazing man, an incredible dad, and the hardest working man that I have ever known!!

Last year I made this post... "Mr. and Mrs. Moats....Our Wedding Day". Well, the ending is in some need of being updated. Since that post we have moved 2 times. March 2010 we made our move to Elko, NV to a small 900 sqft house with only 3 bedrooms (and 5 children) and literally had a bathroom floor that was falling in. And the heater...oh the heater that was HUGE and in the middle of the kitchen floor. That was an adventure. Then in October 2010 we made our move to Eagle Mountain, UT. The move here was a very good decision. We have room for our family, thank goodness...since it increased from last years post by 2 :) So, incase you are keeping track...that is 2 moves in 6 months.

I no longer have that Ford Excursion...nope (and I miss it dearly)! Now it is a 15 passanger Ford Van. CRAZY....I still have to take a double look when I see it sitting in our drive way!! Also, last year when I made that post we were a cozy family of 7...NOW we are a even cozier family of 9! What Great Blessings have been brought upon us :)

Our Wedding Bands

We still have our $20 and $10 wedding bands, although mine needed to be retired this year...it was wearing VERY thin!! Tad's was retired a couple years ago, when he discovered it was cutting off circulation and his finger was turning purple. Too much good cooking :)

And YES...This is our Wedding Picture :)
