11 years ago...

I made a promise to my best friend...

and my life has never been the same since.

Our love story can be summed up like this:

We "flirted" (at church) for a year, 

dated for 2 1/2 months (best time of my life), 

broke up (he moved across the country), 

reconnected after 2 1/2 years (he called me on a whim), 

got engaged within 6 weeks (wasn't going to let him go again) 

and got married 8 months later (best decision of my life).  

My sister and a friend sang "At the Beginning" as I walked down the aisle at our wedding.  This song was and is still a testament of our love for each other. 
I love you, Honey..here's to the rest of our life...

At the Beginning

from "Anastasia"  

Donna Lewis and Richard Marx

We were strangers starting out on our journey
Never dreaming what we'd have to go through
Now here we are and I'm suddenly standing
At the beginning with you

No one told me I was going to find you
Unexpected what you did to my heart
When I lost hope you were there to remind me
This is the start

(chorus)
And Life is a road and I want to keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing
Life is a road now and forever
A Wonderful journey

I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there whenthe storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you

We were strangers on a crazy adventure
Never dreaming how our dreams would come true
Now here we stand unafraid of the future
At the beginning with you

(chorus)

I knew there was somebody somewhere
Like me alone in the dark
I know that my dream will live on
I've been waiting so long
Nothing's gonna tear us apart

(chorus)

In the end I wanna be standing 

at the beginning with you
