May 24th-a day I will always remember and cherish-my wedding day! It is my 8 year wedding anniversary today! How is that possible? It feels like it was just yesterday when I walked down the isle in my A-line wedding dress, through the grass of the gorgeous Sunken Garden that our wedding ceremony was held. I had an uncontrollable amount of nerves and excitement and I COULD NOT stop smiling. I remember my cheeks actually hurting because I was smiling so much. It was the day I got to wed my college sweetheart-the guy I had been praying would be mine for the past 4 years! It was a gorgeous day for an outdoor ceremony. The sun was shinning brightly and all of the garden’s flowers were in full bloom. After the ceremony we enjoyed dinner and dancing with our friends and family who came to celebrate with us. It was an amazing day and a wonderful start to our marriage!

Marriage with this guy has been rewarding in so many ways. He is so gracious, forgiving, kind, and has a true servant’s heart. He loves me through my downfalls and is always pointing me back to the Lord. Although marriage is not all sunshine and roses, we have learned from one another and the trials we have seen in our relationship have made us more like Christ and have drawn us closer to each another.

Happy Anniversary Babe! I love you!
