Our Anniversary Tree

Matt and I had our first real date on October 10, 1998. We spent one incredible day talking non-stop and falling in love with each other. To commemorate that date, we purchased a Northern Red Oak tree with some wedding money and planted it October 10, 1999. We now have a tradition of getting our photo taken by that tree each year. Here are some examples:

1999, with Barron, our German Shepherd

2004, with Bailey, our Chocolate Lab

This year:


It is so fun to look back in our albums to compare not only the size of our tree, but the growth in our family and the changes to the front yard!
