One year ago today I married the man of my dreams. He is more than I could have ever asked for, and I am proud to be his wife. I am proud to have his last name, and proud to wear the ring that symbolizes faithfulness, lasting love, and unity. I would not trade him for any other.
A friend asked me the other day about a few things I have learned in my first year of marriage. While I could make a list, and give you all of the details I have decided to keep this post a little more simple, and do the details later. After all I have some celebrating to do!
Here is my thought, and then I'll leave you to enjoy the video made from our wedding (thanks Cale). Marriage is beautiful, exciting, and worth the commitment. I am happy that I signed the covenant marriage license, that we don't just live together, and that we have a whole future without fear of the other one leaving. I am glad that it takes effort, and pushes me to grow up. I am glad that I have someone who will stick by my side through thick and thin. Even though I have to lay down my pride, and give up on selfishness I am able to take part in the greatest part of love: laying my life down for another.
I love you Steven! May we have many more years full of life giving, world changing, story making marriage.
Always Stay Faithful

Love it! Wish we could have been there but glad we will get to see you grow as one in Christ
