Twenty Year Timeline

Tomorrow is a pretty exciting milestone in the Brittish Household: Scotty and I will celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary!

How will we celebrate? Here’s a hint.

In those twenty years, we’ve experienced so much together. Since we married (very) young, we did a lot of growing up side by side. We’ve learned a lot, argued a lot, changed a lot, and accomplished a lot. It’s been beautiful and challenging, and there’s no one else I’d rather do this with! So I’m in for twenty more. 

As we approached this anniversary, I decided to make a timeline of our twenty years with some of our “bigger” experiences. Here’s a very small glimpse into the past twenty years:

2003 - We got married

2004 - We bought our house

         - I graduated from LDS Business College

         - I got a job at a special ed school

2005 - I started blogging 

2006 - Scotty felt very strongly that he needed to go back to school, so he did

         - We had Nicky

2007 - Scotty lost his job

2008 - Scotty started a job in Orem that we thought would be temporary (he worked there for 8 years)

2009 - We had Daisy

2011 - Scotty left his job in Orem for six months and then went back

         - We ran the Spartan Beast together 

2015 - We had Eva

2016 - Scotty got a new job in Salt Lake

2017 - I graduated from BYU-Idaho

         - Scotty started working for the Church

2018 - (I’ve combed through my blog and Instagram archives looking for some kind of milestone for 2018, but things were pretty chill that year)

2019 - We bought a truck and a motorcycle

         - We took our whole family on an airplane for the first time

2020 - PANDEMIC!!!

         - We finished our basement
