Today makes 10 Years that Justin and I have been married. On July 18, 2009 I walked down the aisle to my happily ever after. Altogether, Justin and I have been together for 15 years. We dated 5 years before saying I do. Yes, we were high school sweethearts. In a world with a high divorce rate, I'm so thankful that Justin and I have stayed married for as long as we have. Marriage hasn't always been a bed of roses. Sometimes it has been just plain hard, but it has always been worth it. God has truly blessed us and our beautiful little family. Here are 10 Tips I've learned After 10 Years of Marriage.

I’ve lived in the hills of Eastern, Ky my whole life. Yes, I actually do live back in a hollow located in Inez, Ky. A lot of people look down on small town living, but not me. I love where I live! It’s a quaint little town with only 2 stop lights and the nearest Walmart is 30 minutes away. There isn’t a whole lot to do in our tiny town. However, we have a few amazing restaurants, a community center with a movie theater, a small lake, a few parks, some breathtaking views especially when you’re hiking, a top notch library, an airport and several small businesses. In Inez, you will also find churches on almost every corner.  Where we live is mostly one or two lane roads. Everyone waves when they pass you on the road. It's a friendly little town, and almost everyone knows each other. But none of this is What I love Most About Small Town Living.
