Four GREAT Years...

Wow, I just realized that I haven't blogged anything for almost 2 months. No my life is not that boring that I don't have ANYTHING to write about, I guess I kind of forget and think I should be doing other things. Like what? I don't know, but it sounded like a good excuse.

Today is hubs and I 4 year anniversary. Can you believe it? To think that 4 years ago, Lori was gazing at my half naked husband! :-)

So let me go back to that very special day. The weather couldn't have been more perfect. It was beautiful. It was rainy and cloudy the day before, but the day of the wedding I awoke to the sun shining. But I first must back up a little.

About a week before I got married, I started getting a sore throat. Oh I knew what was coming...I was getting a sinus infection and I could tell this one was going to be a doozy. I went to the allergist and he thought it was just a cold...plus, "you are going to Mexico for your honeymoon, I am sure you kind find any sort of antibiotics down there..." His exact words, not mine. So I left feeling miserable. Come Wednesday, my last day of work until after the honeymoon, I was starting to lose my voice. I think I had a melt down that week, the kind of melt down where your mom asks if you are okay and you turn into a blubbering mess. I think the stress of work, making sure everything was getting done for the wedding and my sinus infection had taken a toll on me. But I digress...

So I was loosing my voice and felt HORRIBLE. But I could not wait to get married and be with my husband. Hubs and I knew each other for about 10 years before we finally decided we should date. I will tell that story later. At our rehearsal, I couldn't even speak to thank everyone for coming, hubs had to and if you know him, public speaking is NOT his favorite thing to do.

The morning of our wedding, I awoke at my mom's house, as I had moved back in with them (only the second time) in September. My mom had breakfast ready and my roommates from college came over as well as my sisters and we had a nice breakfast. Then off to get my hair done and then the whirlwind of events leading up to our wedding. My dear friend Les, rescued my day by dealing with a cake catastrophe and she was so good at not letting me in on what the real issue was. I was so glad to be surrounding my such wonderful people. Lori did a GREAT job at coordinating everything and the wedding went off without a hitch. I can still remember walking down the aisle and looking at Kyle. I don't think my smile could be any bigger...in fact after the ceremony and greeting people, my cheeks hurt!

I am so blessed to have a God loving husband, who cares for me and loves me for who I am. God completely put us together and I am blessed to have hubs in my life.

So Happy Anniversary to my wonderful husband of 4 years. I look forward to many, many more together.
