Ten years ago today we went our first date.
Nine years ago today we were married, surrounded by friends and family.
I have always loved this picture – and we still have fun together. As we celebrate our anniversary I am reminded of God’s provision and timing – two elements which are typically very different from our expectations. I am remembering his very romantic proposal, and how he had just enough to buy an engagement ring. I ended up choosing the first dress I tried on and paid for it with just enough money that my late great-grandmother had left me. Somehow the over the last nine years the just enough has felt abundantly, more than enough – we are so thankful! We had a simple wedding but have invested deeply in our marriage. Of all the things I have done, I am glad for this man the most. It really is worth the wait for the right guy!
Happy anniversary babe.

Thanks all for the sweet comments. And thanks dad for that beautiful day and saying “yes” when he asked for my hand. You’re my second top guy!
