Back in March...
Andrew and I celebrated 17 months married on the 17th.
How fun is it that this anniversary fell on St. Patrick's Day?
In true Stephanie fashion I couldn't let this day slip away without some fun treats and celebrations.

| I live for this stuff |

| Lunchbox jokes |
I am so glad Andrew just smiles, tells me I am cute, and plays along, because I am a sucker for a good theme, printables, and a celebration! Who is really making out here, though?
I may or may not need to reel it in before we have little Welshicans {aka kids}.
 |
| What will I think of next? |
It isn't St. Patrick's day with out green beer and it isn't an anniversary without "cheers" to many more.
 |
| YES, I take my printables with me in public and have no shame. |
Life is about celebrating your journey {no comparing} and enjoying every stage. Don't wish the days away because someday you will be wanting this moment back. Be present and make the most of where you are at right now. Andrew and I aren't perfect but after living 3 years of our relationship with an ocean between us we try hard to balance difficult times with fun times.
Challenging times come and go but without them we wouldn't know how to fully embrace the good. When we make the most of even a silly anniversary it is something we can hold onto when we feel like our world is crumbling beneath us. All these moments help us to keep a realistic outlook.
What is your secret to staying balanced?

| Blessed and in love |
Don't you worry, I had my green and sparkles on as well...
If you are counting...today marks 19 months married! Time flies when you are having fun.
