Auguest 22nd, 2009

I was in the basement of Grandma's house getting ready for the biggest day of my life. (at that point). I was so excited. Our families were there to support us, our friends would be meeting us soon. We were finishing up and heading to Aspen Landing.


I pray I remember this always. The way I felt (giddy TO THE FULLEST meaning of the word). I was officially going to become the WIFE of my best friend. We were going to be tied together forever



Things were going so well. Sammy helped me with my hair, Kristina with my makeup, we got everything ready, loaded into the cars and headed over. I remember being in the "Bride" room adding the finishing touches when it actually began to sink in. In a matter of hours I'd be Jason's wife...



So happy that we decided to be DANCE down the isle. It was so much fun. My Grandma came up afterwards and said she'll remember it forever, it was something she'd never seen before but absolutely loves... So many people said very similar things, they all loved that we did that. It was so much fun. It was hot though. 101 degrees outside and I was in my big POOFY wedding dress( which I was in LOVE WITH), the guys in BLACK on BLACK tuxes, but everyone was amazing. Funny how once we began talking I couldn't hear ANYTHING anyone was saying, felt LOST in his words, in his smile, in his eyes. I was however bouncing and swaying back and forth. (Which my mom and Roberta both told me that was something I did since i was a little girl when I was really happy- so it seems only right that I was doing it).


Things only continued to get better as the day went on. We danced with our family and friends. Surrounded by ALL our favorite people. Everyone made us feel so loved and so blessed. It was such a great day.


This year things seem especially important as now when we celebrate our anniversary the value of it has increased ten-fold. Now we celebrate our anniversary with the love of our little girl as well. She truly has saved our lives in so many ways. Hard to believe we went without her for so long, but I'm so glad to have her now. Amazing to me that I am still falling in love with Jason MORE every single day.


We've been together since I was 18. 7 amazing years later, HERE WE are.



Love you honey!!!


Cheers to 50+ more amazing years together!
