This day one year ago looked like this...

Today is our big one year wedding anniversary!

I feel like it was just a couple months ago that we stood on a platform in front of all of our family, friends, and church family and made sacred vows to each other.

On the other hand, I feel like we have been married for years.  We are so comfortable around each other and know each other so well already.  Justin always, always knows what I'm going to say before I say it.  It's kinda crazy, really.

I had plans for today that we would watch our wedding video and eat our wedding cake topper.  There was a slight glitch, though, because we left our cake in WM when we moved!  So instead we watched our wedding video and ate a piece of this cake I picked up today.

It was neat to me to watch our video for the first time since the wedding.  I didn't remember everything since that day was such a crazy busy day.  I'm glad we have it captured on video so that each year we can listen to the promises we made each other before God.  It's just a nice reminder that we need to keep those things in mind and live them out day to day.

Justin has to work tonight, so I'm home alone.  He has plans to surprise me tomorrow with a small celebration of our anniversary.  :)  Guess I'll post about it later.

Happy Anniversary, to my sweet husband!  I cannot imagine for a second my life without you in it.  You have changed me and my life so much for the better.  I know that God placed you in my life at just the right time, and although you aren't always perfect, you are perfect for me!  I love you with all my heart and cannot wait to see our lives unfold over the years to come.  Thank you for making my first year as a married woman a wonderful and unforgettable one.  And thank you for being willing to follow Christ and lead me in His will for our lives.  You are such a blessing to me, and I will not take you for granted!
