As I have been catching up on my blogs the past couple days, I've noticed I wrote one about Evy and one about Eli...so I guess it's only fair to write one about Kevin. I'd hate for him to feel neglected. :)
Kevin is my best friend. I know there will be people that read this and say "yeah, yeah" "that's cheesy" "nothing is as it seems" But it's all true. If you don't believe what I say then that's fine and you should stop reading now because it's only going to get more mushy from here. I know what it's like to be in an unhappy relationship and going through some struggles has made me have a completely different outlook on things. I don't take anything for granted that Kevin does and I appreciate and notice how he loves me. Kevin & I have a wonderful relationship and marriage and I think it's because we are best friends. We discuss things. We enjoy spending time together. We pay attention to each other's interests and even though sometimes they get the best of us, we try really hard to not sweat the small things. We rarely have "girls nights" or "guys nights" because truth be told...we like our "us time." So as a tribute to my best friend, the father of my children and the best husband a girl could have prayed for...here is our journey with pictures. It does you good to take a walk down memory lane sometimes and see where you've come from...
The first family get together I went to with Kevin. That's Walker, our youngest nephew at the time. He is now 4 years old!
Us at the same family function.
The first time I went to Thanksgiving with Kevin's family. I taught his cousin, Jordan, at the time. I remember when I walked in she said, "Mom, what is my music teacher doing here?"
One of the many Panthers games we went to. Game #1
Game #2
Game #3. We had season tickets.
Same game as above. Tailgating in the parking lot.
Game #4. It poured rain on us...hence the ponchos next to us.
Random photo. Classic Kevin Dunn pose.
At one point in our relationship, that's Riley I'm holding in this picture. (One of Kevin's cousins and she is 4 now too) I remember everyone looking at this picture saying, "You look like a natural mama Lyndsey. I could see little ones in yours & Kevin's future."
One of Kevin's favorite pictures of us from the past. That used to be his favorite shirt on me. Maybe I can get back in it. ;)
If I wasn't already a sure thing for Kevin by watching the Panthers, we have attended many Braves games too.
July 4th Braves game.
Atlanta trip with both sides of the family. Getting autographs after the game.
Posing before the same game.
A weekend at the Outer Banx. Golfing with dad & Keith.
Our first snow at Veteran's Park.
A fun weekend with friends.

Sweet picture.
Putt-putt date. Everyone has one of those, right?

April 3, 2010. Our wedding day.
Right after we got married, hanging out with friends before going on our honeymoon.
Although we don't like this picture, it's the only one we have while I was pregnant with our first baby. We had a miscarriage shortly after this Thanksgiving picture on December 1, 2010.
This picture was Spring Training at ESPN's Wide World of Sports.
This was my first time at Disney World. Kevin was being interviewed in Florida for his current job. We got home from this trip and found out I was pregnant that same night!
Our "babymoon" while pregnant with Eli. In Miami - Braves game.
The birth of Eli Wayne Dunn on 11-11-11.
"Babymoon" while pregnant with Evy. Atlanta with friends.
The birth of Evy Alexandria Dunn on 11-1-13.
Our current happy family of four.
On April 3, 2014 Kevin & I will have been married for four years. I tried to use pictures from the biggest moments of our relationship, but I could have done so much more. I am thankful we have so many pictures to choose from and even more happy memories. We have laughed, cried and shared all kinds of ups and downs in our almost 4 years of marriage and almost 5 years of being together. I only pray that we have 70+ more years to come because I could not be happier in this life than what I am right now. I hope you aren't feeling left out now babe, because without you and your role in my life, I wouldn't have these precious children as a gift.
HONEY, I LOVE YOUR LOVE THE MOST!
