Marriage Is...
*Taking Walks
*Holding Hands
*Laughing
*A kiss when he walks through the door every night
*Singing in the car
*Having my door opened for me all the time
so much so that I expect it from other people when he's not around...oops! :)
*Cuddling to sleep every night
*Praying together
*Playing games
*Cooking dinner together
*Texts every morning after he gets to work
*Going to bed together (every night after 1 year...)
In other words, marriage is...
*Love
*Bliss
*Happiness
*Friendship
*Fun
*Not as much work as people seem to think or say
Marriage is a blessing.
Every. Single. Day.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY SHARLEE AND ZACH.
I WISH TO SHARE A FEW MEMORIES OF THIS MONUMENTAL DAY AS WELL.
THE FIRST TIME I SAW YOU IN THE DRESS I WORE TO BE MARRIED IN.
THE ALTERATIONS LADY DID SUCH A WONDERFUL JOB.. THE DRESS LOOKED SO MUCH BETTER ON YOU. THE FACT THAT YOU ARE 4 INCHES TALLER THAN ME AND BEAUTIFUL MAY HAVE PLAYED SOME GREAT PART IN THAT AS WELL.
THE ALL CONSUMING THOUGHTS OF FOOD AND CAKES AND PHOTOS AND TABLE CLOTHS AND PLACES TO HAVE IT AND FLOWERS.
THE ORDERING THE TABLECLOTHS AND CARA TALKING US INTO THE BLACK WITH THE PLUM RATHER THAN WHITE.
IT WAS EXCELLENT ADVICE .
THE SHOPPING FOR PLATES AND CENTERPIECES AND FLOWERS AND CLOTHES..
CARA AND I IN CRAFT AND FABRIC STORES.. PLACES THAT ARE SO OUT OF MY ELEMENT..
ME MAKING CARA GO BACK TO THE RECEPTION HALL WITH ME TO MAKE SURE WE COULD SET THE TABLES UP
THE WAY THAT WE HAD PLANNED THE FIRST TIME WE LOOKED AT THE HALL. AND THE SECOND TIME AS WELL.
SO THREE TIMES CHECKING IT OUT
IRONING 22 HUGE TABLECLOTHS AND STILL PRAYING THAT IT WOULD GO OFF AS WE WERE PLANNING.
THE FLOWERS COMING IN ON AN ORDER AND CARA FINDING THAT THEY WERE DRIED OUT AND WOULD NOT COME OUT OF IT. SO SHOPPING FOR FLOWERS UNTIL 1.30 IN THE MORNING THE DAY OF YOUR WEDDING. AT EVERY 24 HOUR ALBERTSONS WALMART AND WINCO IN THE TOWN.
GOING TO THE HOTEL THE MORNING OF YOUR WEDDING AND HELPING YOU GET READY WITH MISTY..
SEEING YOU STANDING THERE IN THAT DRESS WITH THAT FACE AND CHOKING ALL THE WAY HOME FROM THE HOTEL AS WELL.
HAVING YOUR DAD TELL ME THAT HE SHOULD HAVE A PAIR OF SOCKS TOO BECAUSE HE WAS LOSING HIS DAUGHTER TODAY. AND HIM CHOKING TOO
.
SEEING YOU IN THE TEMPLE WITH THE MAN YOU WERE NOT LOOKING FOR BUT STILL THE SAME YOU FOUND. AND SEEING YOU BE SEALED TO YOUR FOREVER LOVE AND SOULMATE.
WATCHING YOU COME OUT OF THE TEMPLE AND YES RUINING THE EXIT BECAUSE I DID NOT WANT YOUR DAD TO MISS IT.
THE PICTURES .. THE LAUGHTER AND THE TEARS THERE.
AND ALL THE GOOD FAMILY AND FRIENDS WHO CAME THERE TO SHARE IN YOUR DAY AND THIS MOMENT THAT MEANT EVERYTHING TO YOU BOTH AND TO US AS WELL.
THAT EXCELLENT TRIPPING ENTRANCE BY ZACH INTO THE RECEPTION HALL.TO THE TUNE OF SHE'S IN LOVE WITH THE BOY..
WILL THOUGHT HE HAD PLANNED THAT.
:)
THE FLOWERS WERE BEAUTIFUL THE CAKE WAS BEAUTIFUL AND YES THE TABLES WERE PRETTY DARN GOOD AS WELL.
THE TOASTS, YOUR FIRST DANCE WITH ZACH, YOUR DANCE WITH YOUR DAD, MY DANCE WITH YOUR DAD AND THAT EXCELLENT BOUQUET TOSS DANCE AS WELL.(I STILL HEAR ABOUT THAT ONE ;)
THE FLOWERS, THE FRIENDS, THE FAMILY THE FUN .. THE PLAN FOR FOREVER..
AND ONE OF MY BEST MEMORIES EVER IN MY LIFE AS A MOM.. WHEN YOU SAID" THAT YOUR WEDDING HAD BEEN EVERYTHING YOU DREAMED OF"
ONE OF MY TRULY HAPPIEST MOMENTS EVER..
AND THEN BEING ABLE TO WATCH YOU BUILD A MARRIAGE FROM THE WEDDING.
THE WAY YOU WORK TOGETHER, WORK THINGS THROUGH TOGETHER, DISAGREE TOGETHER, LOVE TOGETHER, RAISE A PUPPY TOGETHER, BUILD A HOME TOGETHER AND PLAN THE FUTURE TOGETHER,
I PRAY FOR YOU THE BEST FUTURE, MANY MANY YEARS OF WORKING TOGETHER AND MORE LOVE AND MORE STRENGTH TO ENDURE TRIALS AND MORE JOY THAN YOU CAN EVEN IMAGINE.
I WISH THE HAPPINESS OF THIS DAY TO STAY WITH YOU BOTH FOREVER.
I LOVE YOU..
