holy cow, i have been married for 5 years today! i cannot believe that time has passed so quickly. on our second anniversary luke and i talked about taking a big vacation for our 5 year anniversary - to hawaii or somewhere tropical. instead of a vacation we are getting another precious little boy so i'd say we still came out on top. :)
thinking back on our wedding i have only happy, mushy, gushy thoughts. yes, i was sick and throwing up the day/night before the wedding and all day on my wedding day. i have almost forgotten my lovely bridesmaids literally cutting me out of my wedding gown because i was sick/couldn't breathe/gross. mostly i remember all of the people that mean the most to us celebrating our wedding with us. i remember walking down the aisle and crying like a big baby. i remember that from the first step into the sanctuary i did not feel sick. i was completely at peace and so excited to be marrying my best friend. we had a beautiful ceremony (i am not biased at all right?) and a quick, fun reception at the church afterwards. let's take a little trip down memory lane....
then the party really started - well for my new husband and the guests that is. by this time i was back to puking and sickliness. even through the grossness of being sick i will forever cherish the toasts our friends and family made, our first dance as husband and wife, hugging and kissing on our family and friends and the magic of the night. that was the beginning of wonderful life and it has only gotten better over the last few years.
our first dance as husband and wife was to the song 'better together' by jack johnson. it could not be more perfect for the way i feel about my lovely husband.
There is no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard
No song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a, shoebox of photographs
With sepiatone loving
Love is the answer,
At least for most of the questions in my heart
Like why are we here? And where do we go?
And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy and
Sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together
Mmm, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
And all of these moments
Just might find their way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone
When the morning light sings
And brings new things
For tomorrow night you see
That they'll be gone too
Too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find their way
Into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression
I was somewhere in between
With only two
Just me and you
Not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be
We'll sit beneath the mango tree now
It's always better when we're together
Mmm, we're somewhere in between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
I believe in memories
They look so, so pretty when I sleep
Hey now, and when I wake up,
You look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time,
And there is no, no song I could sing
And there is no, combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing
We're better together.
