September 16th 1995........

.......is where the Cornia story began. Chad and I have been married 14 years today. It hardly seems possible!! We have had many ups and downs through the years, but the ups have definitely out weighed the downs.

When we went into this adventure we were young and in love and didn't know our future. Really I don't even know that we cared to much what our future held as long as we were together. (I'm sure everyone knows what I mean when I say that) We had a lot of growing up to do together and a lot to learn about life. I am so glad that we took this journey on as a team.

We share 3 wonderful kid and a lot of great memories. I only look forward to the next 14 years to come.

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH CHAD!!!! Thanks for providing the best life possible for me and the kids. Your the greatest in all of our eyes!

Chad surprised me with these beautiful Roses and a card.
We try to go out to dinner but usually don't buy much for our anniversaries, so I wasn't expecting this. We did go to dinner at our favorite steak house "Bon Rico" in Evanston too. We had a great night together!!!

HERO FOR A DAY!!!

Today Peyton got to be the "Hero For A Day" in his class. Each day a different kid gets to have this special day, and Peyton has really been looking forward to it. I got to go into his class and tell all his friends and classmates all about him. It was a lot of fun seeing the smile on his face as I told stories and showed pictures of him. He also got to choose his favorite story and we read it to the class. He chose "Who's Making That Smell." He almost knows it word for word, so it was fun for him to be able to help me read it. Mrs. Weston is such a fun teacher and does some really great things with the kids.
