3 years ago…

I feel so lucky to be celebrating three years of marriage with my amazing husband. After the hectic summer we’ve had it’s nice to look back to that day and smile. It was an absolutely beautiful day. One of the best days of my life. It was so “us”. We had a few snags in the day, but none of it mattered. I wasn’t a bride that had to have everything “just so”. I wasn’t a bride that thought it was all about me. As long as I was able to say my vows to Tracy in front of the people who cared about us the most I would be happy, and so I was.

So the laptop with all of the DJ’s music on it got stolen, so what? It worked out. So the DJ was a total creepo that hit on me the entire reception, eww, but so what? Our “best little man” (Chase) had a huge shiner in all of our pictures, so what? Chase also ended up in our bed at the hotel the night we were married. Typical us 🙂

I’m not sure I will ever be able to adequately describe my feelings for Tracy. There was just something different about him from the beginning. A connection that I’ve never had with anyone else. I wasn’t trying to find love, in fact I wanted nothing to do with it at the time. It didn’t matter.

There was no stopping it.

“I vow to help you love life, to always hold you with tenderness, and to have the patience that love demands. To speak when words are needed, and to share the silence when they’re not, and to live within the warmth of your heart and always call it home.” ~ The Vow (Paige’s vows).

 

Happy anniversary to the love of my life.
