Just one year ago from now, we were on cloud nine, celebrating our first year of marriage at Sandals in Antigua! It was the best vacation ever! We spent that week laying out by the pool and at the beach. It was a much needed break from the busy lives we were living. Every thing slowed down for that week, and we didn't have a thing to worry about!
On the last day of our wonderful trip, I was feeling a little "weird". I don't know how else to explain it, but I just felt like taking a pregnancy test, so I did! And guess what? That was our first, very early sign, that we were pregnant with the quads. I was in total disbelief, and had to take another test the next morning, and then again when we returned home. Finding out that news while on our vacation made it even more special! What a great end to our trip.
Getting bumped to first class wasn't to bad either! This was the best meal ever served on a plane. My favorite, cereal!
Ahh, just ONE year ago... how easy life seemed. I don't even feel like the same person anymore. What a year it has been....
you guys are just the cutest couple...i'm sorry life isn't as blissful as it was a year ago. its hard to look back and see yourself "before"...and wanting so badly to go back to that innocence.
ReplyDeletei think of you and josh ALL the time...
Hugs-for the joy one year ago, the sadness that comes and goes in waves, and for the future ahead of you-hopefully filled with wonderful things! You are both in my thoughts and prayers often!
ReplyDeleteIt is absolutely amazing the difference that a year can make. Especially after everything you've been through. I agree...I'm definitely NOT the same person I was a year ago. Hang in there.

Wow! It has been some year, huh? You two really are a beautiful couple! I'm glad you had that special trip together. That's actually where we honeymooned. Hoping you find more, many more, of those special memories.
ReplyDeleteLauren these are beautiful photos of a beautiful time. You will have others, but as you say, they will be different. Thinking of you xxxx
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about not feeling like the same person. So much about me has changed since losing my girls. Sometimes I just wish I could go back and be that person again, but I know that would mean I wouldn't have had my girls and that is something I would never change. Thank you for sharing these wonderful pictures. Thinking of you and your sweet babies. xx
ReplyDeleteDon't I know what that's like...looking back at "before" and life seems so much easier and different "back then" - I sometimes wonder what ever did I have to worry about or be upset about. It all just seems so trivial. You two are the cutest couple. I can barely look at pictures from when I was pregnant with Vivian and Annemarie- I guess it makes me sad because I KNOW what happened next, and I know that innocence lost, and I know that things will never be like they were. I miss my girls, just as I know you miss your four beautiful children. Things can still be good...I know you know that. But they won't ever be like they were, and that is a loss, too. Thinking of you often! (((Hugs)))

I bet you are stronger and braver than you ever thought possible then!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how much a year can change things.
ReplyDeleteThe resort looks so nice and relaxing!! I love going to warm places like that and soaking up the sun and the sea.
ReplyDeleteSo much can change in a year.
I cannot imagine the changes in the past year. You have been through so much joy and then so much sadness...praying that next year brings more joy.
ReplyDeleteAnd Happy 2nd Anniversary, if I'm reading that right. Try not to let that slip by unnoticed.
I am looking foward to seeing what the next year brings for you and Josh. Love to you both!
ReplyDeleteHey kids, It's been a bumpy year. Praying for smoother sailing in the year to come.
ReplyDeleteYou are so precious to us. XXOO
