Happy Anniversary!!

After going through my pictures, I have realized that I have failed to preserve a tradition of ours. When we got married 6 years ago, we made a goal to go to a different temple every anniversary. We have succeeded in that goal (thanks to having 13 temples in Utah alone) but I have failed to document several of these years. At least we have the memories! I love you Mr. Ryan Alkema!

2004 Bountiful Temple
I had to sneak this one in because most people don't know Ryan was on crutches our wedding day and so the bride romantically carried the groom away... :)
2005 Manti Utah Temple
2006 St. George Temple
2007 Salt Lake Temple
2009 Draper, Utah Temple (Oops! This is out of order)
2008 Mt. Timpanogos Temple
2010 Oquirrh Mountain Temple

Love you babe! Hope to have a pic of us in front of the Hong Kong Temple by 2044..ish. :)

I seriously love your tradition going to a different temple every year. Wish we did that! I guess we could start now but its not the same...

I agree, great tradition. You look so cute pregnant! And, I really hope you make it to the Hong Kong Temple before 2044 - it is BEAUTIFUL.
