Happy Aniversary
Posted in Family by: AlisaScott and I have been married nine years today. Nine years! Holy cow. We were talking and nine years doesn’t seem long enough for all the stuff we’ve been through but it also seems too long. How could nine whole years have passed? We have been through some tough crap together and to be honest, like the rest of you, we’re going through some crap right now with the downturn in the economy. And you know what? I know we’ll be good because I have Scott and he can get through anything.
Scott brought me back from the gates of hell two years ago and we’ve been fighting a good fight ever since. And if you think that’s an exaggeration, the gates of hell, you obviously weren’t around when it happened. He was my anchor, my compass, my guiding light. He nursed me through a time when I didn’t know if I had the will to live. He put up with so much garbage from me it’s embarrassing to even think about. We made it through the darkest of days together.
Scott has nurtured my love of comic book movies and spends a ton of time explaining back story to me. He even lets me tag along with his friends every time a new movie comes out. He takes me to Chipotle almost every Friday night because that’s my current favorite. He even goes along with my crazy plans to eat at certain places and then go somewhere else for something else. He brings me the most delectable pastries and doesn’t get mad if I accidently eat the one he bought for himself.
Scott holds our family together. He is our rock and our foundation. There isn’t anything that I could do to repay him for all of the love and hard work that he puts into our family. He is custom made for me and I hope he feels like I am custom made for him.
I love you Scott with every beat of my heart. You are my universe. My world revolves around you and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m putting Come What May from Moulin Rouge on here for you. When they say that “I will love you until my dying day”, you remember that we never truly die. So I will love you forever and always. ”Until the end of time.” Happy Aniversary.

Geez Alisan, that just about made me cry. Hope Scott loves it
And great song choice!! Joel and I used to sing that duet with Ewan and Nicole (Elephant Love Medley) to each other all the time. Good times…
Happy Anniversary

Congratulations on 9 years!! Wow. That is awesome. Yes, I am in denial that many years has gone by as well. Chris and I will be celebrating our 9th in January. Crazy huh? I still feel 22, just trapped in a 30-something body that’s had a few kids….trying to claw my way back out of it. LOL
What a lovely post. I love how you said your husband is custome made for you. That is a brillant analogy. Perfect fit! Love it. Congrats!

Wow… 9 years. That seems like so much compared to mine and Chris’s 2. Congrats!
We love your family!

Such a sweet post to your hubby, and I’m hoping you two get to celebrate it properly this weekend. If you need someone to watch the boys so you can go out, let me know.

Thanks for sharing some very personal feelings. One wish that a parent has for their child is that they could wavy a magic wand and take away every dissapointment, hurt,
and unhappiness. Unfortunately I can’t make that wish come true. Another big wish is that your son or daughter will marry someone that loves their child as much as they do and that their marriage relationship will be based on respect, understanding and love. You have made that wish come true. I love you for that. You are awesome. Hey, the next nine years have to be easier, right!

Alisa, this is so great! It’s so nice to hear how marriage is surviving in spite of hard times when it’s so easy to find marriages failing. You two are a great example of making life good in spite of difficulty. Thanks for sharing and happy (late) anniversary!!
