Four Years Ago Today...

I was a blushing bride.

And blushing I was indeed. I'm not one for being the center of attention. I would much rather be making a fuss about someone else. Truth be told, I was nervous to be the focus of an entire day. Weeks before my wedding just the thought of hundreds of eyes staring at my every move made my stomach tie itself in knots.

But the amazing thing was, all of those nerves disappeared about a week before the big day. God transformed me into a completely peace-filled woman. It was like my heart beat slowed just enough for me to take deep breaths in and out, soaking up every moment of those last days of being a "fiancee", all in preparation for my biggest role to date - wife.

In celebration of my four year anniversary, I thought I'd share some photos of our day. If you haven't noticed, I don't post photos of myself very often. Well, this will make up for that.


We chose a warm hot summer day to exchange vows in front of family and friends and officially begin our lives together. Our ceremony was in a garden area of a golf course. It was surrounded by hedges and tall trees - it felt so private.

I love gazebos and loved the natural wood look of this one. 

We were so blessed to have our closest friends and family stand by our side that day, supporting us every step of the way then... and now.

We were a very lively, goofy bunch.

We had amazingly talented photographers (who are also friends) that made us feel like we belonged in a magazine shoot.

Love, here's to countless more years of laughter.
