11 Years

*A video of our wedding day is at the bottom of this post! Go ahead and watch it, you just might see someone you know! :)

One of my favorite pictures of us...I carried this in those velcro wallet things that you get in college that keep your ID, anyone know what I'm talking about here?



The night Marc proposed to me. He was in seminary in Ft. Worth, TX and I was a junior at Ouachita Baptist University. He drove up that weekend to surprise me!



And, our wedding day- June 6, 1998 at Northway Baptist Church (who has just merged with Matt Chandler's The Village, random I know) We look so young. I guess that is because we were!


(I'm still astonished at the size of that bouquet! What was I thinking?)

We watched our wedding DVD (Thanks Nathan!) last night, at the request of the girls. It was fun to watch and remember who all was there and the songs that were sung. One song in particular will always be special to me that our friend Kristin sang. Just one year after our wedding (almost to the date) of a horrific plane crash that left her without a singing voice and other injuries. We love you Kristin and are so amazed at how you have walked this tough road. God is good!

Happy 11th Anniversary Honey. I love your more now than I did on that day. God knew what He was doing when He put us together. You balance me out, wouldn't you agree? I love you.

Charity, that was so beautiful. I am left feeling quite nostalgic for our OBU days (even though I met my hubby in grad school a couple years later). Everyone looked so young! How can it be we are in our 30's? I don't feel any different from then, except, well, maybe a little more mature (I hope), and with sciatica, ha ha! I do wish we had spent more time together back then - I can tell now that we would have been close friends. Love you!

So sweet!! That's one of the songs we had at our wedding. :) Oh how I wish we could have made it back to TX for that summer of weddings!!!! I am seriously feeling the need for a reunion! A dozen years has been WAY too long to see all those familiar faces in person!!!
