5 years later

On Saturday Mr G and I celebrated 5 years of wedded bliss. An entire 5 years of bliss, no fights no unhappiness. All BLISS. I swear.

As we flicked through our wedding album last night we reminisced about what has happened in the past 5 years!

5 years ago, we didn't:


  • have any children;
  • have a thriving vegie patch;
  • have a nicely painted grey house;
  • have more than two niece/nephews (now we have 6!);
  • have a silly security guard brother in law;
  • have our X-trail (which now seems squashy with 2 baby seats!);
  • have our own business;
  • have to think about anybody but ourselves;
  • have to travel more than 10min to see our close family.
Times have certainly changed, mostly for the better but naturally, we have had some trying times also. 

5 years seems like such a short amount of time - how did all this "life" happen in it?

Where were you 5 years ago?

  3. Happy anniversary!
    5 years ago my hubby and I were a month away from getting married, I was nursing and he was in his first year of acting school. We lived in Brisbane and only had one dog and no baby. Same same on a smaller scale for us :)

    Popping over from #IBOT :)

  4. I read it with a smile on my face. Congratulations on your 5 years of happiness. 5 years ago I was blissfully unaware that I would have to endure the hardest time of my life in less than two weeks, but that was 5 years ago.

  7. Happy Anniversary! Five years ago we only had two kids instead of four, and we were just getting ready to move into the house we're in now.
    A lot does change in five years.
