11 years of...bliss!

11 years of being married to my best friend.

11 years of having someone by my side no matter what.

11 years of growing as a couple and individually.

11 years of adventures. 

7 of those years parenting together. 

My heart aches with love for this man. 

I cannot imagine life without him. 

He truly makes me a better person. 

I am so blessed to call him hubby!!

The past 11 years truly have been bliss. 

Not because everything in our life is perfect 

but because no matter what we go 

through, all the ups and downs

we are going through it together.

We know no matter what 

we will always be there for each other.

So yes we celebrate 11 years of bliss!!!!! 

some pics from back in the day.,,

Our wedding!

 10 year anniversary!

6 year Dreadies!

 My dreadies are 6 years old now!

Can't believe it. I remember the day I was going 

to get them done. 

I was a little nervous but so ready. 

I had come to the realization that 

"its just hair" "if it isn't working then I'll 

just get rid of them" and "ya only live once."

My midwife and a friend did them for me. 

Starting them did not take long but

getting them to the point where

I actually liked the way they looked

to quite a while. 

Probably 2 years. That's the thing with dreads 

you have to be patient. They have a mind of their own.

I absolutley love them now. They 

are getting quite long but it 

doesn't bother me. 

Ok so the top 5 questions I get asked.

Do you wash them?-YES, just not every day

 Is that your real hair?-YES

Are they heavy?-Only when wet

How long does it take to get your hair like that?-a while

Do you have to cut them off when you are done with them?-YUP

Another question is how long am I going to keep 

them for. And the answer to that is 

I have no idea. 

No plans to cut them any time soon. 

Here are a few pics from the journey.

The day I was going to get dreads!!

Day 1

 2 year old dreadies

4 year old dreadies

 6 year dreadies! Wohoo!

I always wanted hair down to my butt and could never

let it grow that long. Now I have dreadies

that are almost there. 

And now my hubby has dreadies!!

His are about 7 months old! Ain't he cute. :)
