Happy 10th to US!!!


You know what? Lot's of people doubted we'd even make it past 10 days. Then, it was 10 months.. now it's 10 years! Tomorrow, the 4th of May; we will be celebrating our 10 years of marriage. Like everyone else, we've had our little bumps in the road. But, through it all... love has found a way. We celebrate not only the 10 years together, but a beautiful 8 year old daughter and a home we've been blessed with. To top it off, a new life in a new city with new friends. Thank you God... we owe you our lives.

It started out, a chance meeting in Phoenix working for Southwest Airlines in 1995. We married after only dating 5 months. I was 19 and he was 31 when we met. We had a beautiful little intimate wedding in Louisiana where his family lives and was held in the beautiful house that his brother and his wife lived. Then, for the honeymoon... it was nothing but the best. We went back to his parents house and ordered pizza from Papa John's. Then, off to bed in the trailer that belonged to my new parents-in-law that sits in their driveway. Might have been a few steps behind a trip to Hawaii, but it was bliss for us. To all of those who believed in us.... "Thanks". To those that didn't.... Mark--- he he he. Who knew? Right?

congratulations! 10 feels like such a landmark, doesn't it? our 10th was last year, and i remember thinking, "where did all that time go?" it's great that you are still so happy. and, it totally doesn't matter about where you spend your honeymoon....we all know it's only about one thing. :)

Congratulations. But 31 and 19? Wow, was that hard? Or is he just super-immature?!!

Sum Kinda Princess said...

Aughra- men in general are immature from my experience. I am an only child and was usually around my parents and their friends when I was little so I was used to being around people older than me. Also, I was born an old soal and he was the baby in his family. It works out quite well. But no, not really immature... just the norm for boys.
