Seven Years Ago today



Aaron and I enjoyed the best day of my life. I had the best time dressing up in my princess wedding dress, having my hair all froo frooey, makeup aglow. Aaron's face lit up as I walked down the aisle. I will never forget that look! And, I will never forget the sound of his crackly, teary voice as he said his vows. I know he looks all big and bad, but everyone present at our wedding can attest to the fact that he is as sentimental as they get! Man, that day was PERFECT. It was to be an outdoor wedding at the botanical gardens in Baton Rouge. The most beautiful rose gardens you have ever seen. Only one problem, the worst storm you could ever imagine!!! Man did it rain and pour and pour and pour that day! But, we moved inside, and had just as much fun! The dancing, the cake, ahhhh..... memories that can never be taken away. And, now, to think that it has been 7 whole years, I can't believe it! I love you so much Aaron! I thank you so much for what you have given to me, and I can't wait to grow old with you and watch these kiddos grow up together. We have moved across the country twice (there and back twice, so really 4 times !!!!!!!! ), bought two houses, four cars, had five jobs, and best of all- created two gorgeous additions to this world. I can't believe we made such masterpieces, I don't think we could have painted them any better.
We have definitely had our ups and downs, but we manage them all in the end! Thank you friends and family for supporting us over the years and helping us along this path. We have needed lots of help, but we are finally here, self supporting (for the most part mom ;) ), and real, true, grown ups. Has it really been 7 years? Man!!!! I am glad we married so young and have been able to grow up together. You have turned into quite a husband Aaron, but more importantly, QUITE a daddy!

Happy anniversary to you love bugs. I remember that storm well. But they say a rainy wedding day is a sign of good luck.
