10 Years

My friend Jana posted a similar thing today and I liked the idea so I stole it!!

10 years ago:
~I was almost 24 years old.
~Jayme and I had been married for almost 3 years.
~We lived in a 2 bedroom apartment in Darmstadt, Germany.
~Raley was almost 2 months old so I was sleep-deprived but at the same time blissfully happy.
~Our only vehicle was a green 2 door Dodge Dakota.
~We didn't have any pets of our own so we watched our neighbor's pets when they went out of town.

Now:
~I am almost 34 years old.
~Jayme and I have been married for almost 13 years and we still feel like newlyweds (sappy, much? but true).
~We live in a 3 bedroom house in beautiful East Texas.
~We have 3 wonderful clones (ages 10, almost 7, and almost 3) who fill our lives with chaos (but that's not always a bad thing).
~We have a white 4 door Chevy Truck and a tan Chevy Suburban.
~We have a wonderful dog, 6 laying hens and a turken. When we go out of town we have to have someone take care of the flock but the pup travels with us.

10 years from now:
~I will be nearly 44.
~I am quite certain Jayme and I will still be happily married.
~I wouldn't mind if we still lived in this house, but I am not positive that will be the case.
~The kids will be 20 (!), almost 17 and almost 13.
~I will probably have a job, but I wouldn't want to do anything that would keep me away from the kids so it will more than likely be school related. Maybe subbing, maybe working in the library.
~It's sad to think that 10 years from now won't have the same dog but I know we will have one. At least one. I can only hope he will be as awesome as Lucas Maximus.

Now it's your turn! How has your life changed and what do you see in your own future?

  1. What a cool idea! I will post one on my blog, but sad to say I will seem much younger than you when you see how old I was 10 years ago! LOL
