RemEmBeRiNg & CeLebRaTinG

4 years ago....

- I could hardly eat breakfast.
- I went to get my hair done & then my make-up done.
- I almost forgot the license on my way out the door.
- My dad made me get & eat a hamburger on the drive downtown.
- I walked quickly into the building a little nervous & anxious.
- I changed out of my street clothes & put on a very special dress.
- I went into a room to wait for our guests to arrive & there he was...my soon to be husband.
- All nerves melted away. What was left was pure excitement!
- We were surrounded by all our loved ones.
- I couldn't take my eyes off of him!
- We were sealed for all time & eternity!
- I change into another gorgeous gown.
- I walk down the hall, turn a corner & there is the most handsome guy dressed in black waiting for me. The expression on his face makes me feel beautiful!
- It's our turn to walk out those glass doors & greet all those that wait for us.
- Hooray! I'm a married woman to the man of my dreams!

Doug & I were married in the Salt Lake temple. It was a great day that will always feel like just yesterday. Happy Anniversary Doug! You are the best husband ever & I have thoroughly enjoyed the ride thus far. I look forward to all the years ahead. You are a wonderful father to our little Gavin & he loves you!


Doug & I were lucky enough to have a babysitter on hand (thanks mom)& we were able to go out to dinner last night to celebrate our marriage. We went to Bravo & were quite impressed. It was really good italian. It was nice to get dressed up & go out just the two of us.

Happy Anniversary guys! That's so nice that your mom could watch Gavin while you guys were out...hopefully it wasn't too stressful to be away from the little bambino :)

I'm glad you guys got to get out, even for an hour or so. Was it hard to be away from baby Gavin? You look great and your hair does look like it has extensions, it's so long and pretty. Happy Anniversary! I can't believe you've been married 4 years and that Gavin is already almost 3 weeks old! We're so grown up!
