Bed Rest Diaries: 5 Year Anniversary

     January 19, 2013 marked our 5 year marriage anniversary.  As I look back on our relationship, I can't believe how blessed I have been to have such a wonderful husband and best friend.  From September 2002 to now, we have spent 11 years loving, challenging, encouraging, and supporting one another.  I could not have chosen a better husband for myself and father for my children.  Thank you Michael James Lynn for being you and encouraging me each and every day to be better.  


2008: Year One Highlights: After 6 years of dating we were married on January 19, 2008 



2009: Year Two Highlights: upgrading from a one-bedroom apartment to a two bedroom apartment, a new job for Michael as a Field Sales Manager for QSP, and me going back to school at Fresno state to achieve my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential.

2010: Year Three Highlights: Discovering in April of 2010 that we were going to be expecting our first child.  Upgrading from our two bedroom apartment to a three bedroom house.  Michael being promoted and asked to take over a larger territory as a Field Sales Manager in Sacramento, California.  Me graduating from Fresno State with my teaching credential December 8, 2010 and welcoming our first son Colton James Lynn into our family December 16, 2010.

 2011: Year Four highlights: Making the official move from Fresno to Sacramento in June of 2010. Upgrading from a three bedroom house to a five bedroom house in order for Michael to have a home office, storage space, and an ability to grow our family.  Enjoyed taking many vacations with family over the spring and summer to San Diego, Oregon, and the coast while finally celebrating Colton turning 1 on December 16, 2010.

2012: Year Five Highlights: Loving our new home in Sacramento and the lifelong friends we have found here.  Enjoyed watching Colton begin to walk and officially enter into the toddler stage in January of 2012.  Indulged in taking a wonderful second honeymoon to Atlantis in the the Bahamas in June  where we also discovered we were going to be expecting our second child.
