Has it really been 5 years! When this happened!
It was five years ago this week when the man of my dreams took that step and ask me the words all us little girls dreamt of hearing!
"Hey, you want to go to the jewelry store today and pick out that ring?"
What, that wasn't what you expected... Well that is just the way he and I are. We had dated 10 years before this moment. And I'm so thankful that our friend capture it, even if it was on a camera phone from 1982, LOL.
I love that this picture capture us trying on the ring that we walked away with and so truly love! It fits us, like the way we got officially engaged. I wouldn't change it for the world.
I remember planning our wedding through out that following year. It was simple and perfect and everything just fell into to place. From the date to the venue to all the details that evolved.
But one thing I treasure and remember the most about that year during planning was how much in love we were (and still are!). It was like we were just dating again. We were two love stuck birds.
I will always cherish those feeling and go back there when things get tough for us. Marriage isn't easy! We've had our ups and down in our 5 years of marriage, but they have made us understand each other more. I think the hardest learning curve I had was that sometimes it isn't just about me. There is another person that is affected by the plans or actions that you take. It's about the team that make you up and that you are trying to build.
We have come a long way, not only in the up coming 5 years of marriage, but also in the up coming being together through all the UPS AND DOWN of 15 years.
