270 Days of Love

Happy Monday Friends!
This is NOT how i feel this Monday but this picture made me smile...

Via


Dear Mr. Pancakes,

Wow, 270 days of marriage!
Like I said to you yesterday, 
i feel like we have taken the last 9 months to labor the foundation of our marriage like no other.  
We continue to be respectful of the vows we took 270 days ago.  
We continue to depend on God for guidance and direction in all areas of our lives.  
We continue to laugh at each other, ourselves and together.  
We love passionately. 
We are patient with each other daily.

And everyday you never cease to share sweet kisses with me.  
And of course we say i love you throughout the day.  
And we still call in the middle of the day just to say "hello."
And we started to pray together at night which has done wonders.

Yesterday a lady at church asked "are you still honeymooning?"
And i smiled and responded: "YES!" because honestly we are.

I am so thankful for the people around us who continue to encourage and support us.
But most of all, i am thankful God continues to have mercy and grace upon us 
as we continue to share our days together as man and wife!

So here's to today...270 days of love and counting...

Loving you to the moon and back Always: Mrs. Pancakes

Officially jumping the broom!

Love this letter! You're such a romantic (I am too!). That's probably why I like reading your blog! I'm feeling happy this morning because only 5 more days until I get to see the one I love!!!

And I LOVE seeing you jump the broom. Did you keep yours? My daughter has hers over their door right now.

Thank you for your kind words about me at Latorsha's blog. That was so sweet.

the only reason why i don't like mondays is because that means mr. taylor has to go back to school and be all busy again.

I usually feel pretty good on Monday. But that is probably because I am not currently working outside of the home...That'll probably change in the near future. lol
I'm usually up and ready to take me son to preschool! ;)
Love the pic.
