5 Amazing Years!

5 years seems like an extremely long time.  However, the past 5 years have flown by!  5 years ago we got married in the Manti, UT temple.  Our family and friends were there and it was the happiest day of my life.  We were sealed by Tyler's Grandpa Oldroyd, who insisted on hugging and thanking everyone for coming before starting the ceremony.  He called me Tamara through most of the ceremony, but it was still wonderful.
To celebrate our 5 year anniversary, we finally got a hotel room with a jetted tub. We went to Wildhorse in Pendleton. Addelyn stayed with her Nana and Papa B and had a blast without us. Our room was wonderful! We got all dressed up and went down to dinner. Our dinner was AMAZING! We both had the same dish and were in heaven. We decided to go for the Red Velvet Cheesecake for dessert and it was so, so good.


Our room was on the 9th floor, in a corner, with floor to ceiling windows.  These were the views out the windows.  Very pretty!


During dinner we were talking about our favorite memories from the past 5 years.  Here are some of them:
Having Addelyn join our family.
Meeting such wonderful friends while in dental school.
Going on our honeymoon.
Graduating dental school.
We feel so blessed to be where we are today.  Tyler has a good, stable job, Tara gets to stay home with Addelyn, and Addelyn lights up our home.  We are looking forward to what the next 5 years brings our family.
