I wish I had a snapshot from our very first date to share with you, but this was before the era of smartphones, or even camera phones (it was the era of these phones), so you will have to settle for one very old picture of the two of us. For perspective, our very first date was quite typical for teenagers growing up along the Carolina coast. We hopped in the car, threw a blanket in the back, and headed over to the beach to sit in the sand and talk about all the worldly things two teenagers could talk about.
And here is a picture from our engagement day. We spent a wonderful weekend in western Virginia last fall (who knew shortly after our engagement we would be moving to Virginia - serendipitous.) where we hiked in the Shenandoah National Forest, drank pumpkin martinis (okay, okay I drank pumpkin martinis, Harris drank beer, maybe pumpkin though!) at a magnificent Public House, and, then, on a beautiful farm in the middle of nowhere, cast up into the heavens where Harris asked me to be his wife. A most wonderful weekend indeed.
Finally, here is one of my favorites from our wedding day! Getting married in Mexico was one of the best decisions we could have made. Not only was it a virtually stress-free, seamless wedding planning process, but the whole experience was wonderfully fun, and every little detail was amazingly beautiful. At the end of the day, all I cared about was marrying this man, whom I had loved for so many years. As they say, everything else was just icing.
Harris, I love you more every single day.
Thank you for making the last 10 years, 6 months, and 2 days the very best days of my life.
I can't wait to see what forever holds for us.
