Three Years as Mrs. Hutcheson

Today is a very special day...our anniversary! Three years ago today I married one of my very best friends and we started our adventurous life together.

In our three years together we've lived in three different houses, had a baby, moved to Africa, and come very close to bringing our adopted baby home. We've been keeping busy!

Today I am celebrating Drew and thanking the Lord that He brought me such an amazing man. God knew exactly what I needed in a husband to compliment my personality and complete me. He gave me the perfect husband for me...and as an added bonus He gave me a smokin' hott one! =)

I often tell Drew that he is the best husband in the world. And while I know that there are many many wonderful husbands (my father and father-in-law are great examples of ones) I do believe that Drew is the best husband in the world for me. I am truly blessed and often wonder why on earth God thought I deserved such a man as him.

To celebrate our third anniversary I made Drew a slide show. We have so many great memories together it was hard to choose just a few pictures!

I love you, Andrew Byron Hutcheson! Thank you for being the godly leader of our home, a patient and sweet husband, and a fun and wise father. I love living life with you and can't wait for the next 3 (and more!) years together. Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary!

Drew and I celebrated two years of marriage last Sunday, August 7th! And what a wonderful two years it has been! There have been ups and downs, happy times and sad times...and lots and lots of learning experiences. =) I love living life with my very best friend. It has been an amazing ride so far!

In our two short years together we have lived in two different apartments in two different states, started our support raising to move to Uganda, and added an adorable, fun, funny, and incredible blessing of a baby to our family (and we'll soon be adding to our familiy again- yes...we're getting a cat!). Also, Drew graduated from Moody Bible Institute, rode a roller coaster (can I just say that was very difficult to get him to do..but he loved it!), and is loving his job as a youth pastor (and farmer!). I am loving my job as a mom! It is the most rewarding job and there is nothing that can describe a mother's love for her baby! Every day Isaiah makes us laugh and brings so much joy into our home. What a wonderful blessing children are!

Anyways, to celebrate our two year anniversary my always romantic hubby booked a surprise weekend in Machinaw City for us! I had never been there before and have always wanted to go. What a great surprise it was. We had a wonderful time! Just wish we could have stayed longer. =)



We took the ferry over to Mackinac Island for one of the days. Isaiah loved the boat!



Daddy and Isaiah went up to the very top of the ferry to feel the wind!



Just landed on the island. Excited for a fun day!




Mackinac Island is beautiful. Lots of fun shops and things to see.



We took a bike ride around the entire island. Isaiah rode in a burley behind our tandom bike.




Drew was in the front of the bike so he did all the hard pedaling and the steering. I got to sit back and relax. =)

No cars are allowed on the island. Only bikes and horse drawn carriages.



Isaiah made himself right at home in the burley and fell asleep within minutes!

It was so fun to ride on a bike yet not have to look where I was going. I took lots of pictures along the way!

Isaiah had fun in the toy store!



On one of the days we went to an indoor water park. Isaiah LOVED the water!



He wasn't too sure about the waterslide though... =)

It was a great weekend with my favorite husband and my favorite son! I am so blessed to have such a great family. =) I can't wait to celebrate many many more anniversaries with Drew!
