52 Weeks Of Gratitude Challenge. Week 2
Hello Again, and Happy Monday!
This week's challenge is your Spouse/Significant Other.
I felt that this was an ironic prompt after the weekend I had, and am excited to share with you all!
Zac and I have lots of adventures together. (Shameless plug, check out our videos!)
This weekend specifically, we took a trip to Aspen, Colorado. We had only driven through at night a year ago, and we were both exited to actually see it, shop, and eat in this beautiful town. We spent the night in Carbondale (another crazy beautiful place) and stopped in little towns all the way back to Denver.
I am great-full for more than just the adventures he takes me on.
Ever since I met Zac, he had been telling me about these cool places all over Colorado. Some that I didn't even know existed! (Crazy, I know being that I have lived here for the better part of 18 years)
He has opened my eyes to so many things since I've known him.
As most young girls do, I used to picture the man I'd someday hope to spend the rest of my life with. Taller than me, handsome, great hair, made me laugh, stood by me, unconditionally love me, take me on fancy dates to fancy places, fun places, even Taco Bell dates. You know, the whole deal.
When I met Zac, he became my best friend. Someone I could tell anything to, without being judged. Someone I could stay up all night, watching silly movies and laughing about the most stupid, random things. Everything that I ever imagined I would have in a husband.
I feel so honored to be able to wake up next to him every morning!
Zac has done so much in his 32 years.
Living all over the country, multiple degrees, 9 years in the Army...
No matter what life throws at him, he survives. He gets over it and moves on.
Yes, he does have bad days. Bad moods. But so does everyone else.
We have fought, had really hard times, difficult days. Nothing would ever make me want anyone else. No matter what happens, I am completely his.
I am thankful for Zac for being the first man who has made me feel like myself. Like I don't have to hide anything I enjoy, I can be myself and he wont be upset, judge me, only doing what he wants to do. It is an amazing feeling to not only be loved by someone, but irrevocably.
I was getting out of a really bad situation (aka really hurtful, abusive relationship) when he and I first started talking.. and to be completely honest I have no idea where I would be if I didn't have my husband in my life.
I feel like I have known him for far longer than 3 years...
I feel that saying "I love you" to him isn't enough! Like there isn't a way to actually express how much he means to me... how deeply in love with him I am... how I would do anything for him... and no matter what I do I feel like it wouldn't be enough!
It isn't perfect, because life isn't perfect. Humanity isn't perfect.
But Zac and I perfectly fit together.
We make our life together as perfect as we can for us.
I am so excited for the next few years of our lives, as we establish ourselves as husband and wife. Having our first home together, adventures all over, and someday babies!
Our wedding story is here.
See you all next week!
