13 years ago, I met him. He was quiet, played golf and liked to wear shoes.
I let him kiss me and be my boyfriend anyways.
We fell completely in love.
He asked me to marry him.
(I said yes.)
It was a fabulous evening of dancing, drinking, chinese food and poker.
Complete bliss.
4 years have passed, and we've had laughing, and crying, and houses, and overdraft fees, and vacations, and surprises, and promotions, and babies.
And I am so very lucky he still lets me love him.
Because Lord, I am a fool for this man.

Very sweet post! Happy Anniversary!
December weddings are the coolest:) Did you have a Christmas theme, too?
I have to ask...was it a Catholic wedding? We got married in a Catholic church, and I had wanted a Christmas wedding for as long as I could remember. I had Dec. 16th all picked out, but I asked for the date, and they told me they didn't do weddings during Advent or Lent. I called a lot of Catholic churches and got mostly the same answer. They ended up letting us do it Dec. 2, which was the last possible second before the first mass of the Advent season.
This was the sweetest ever. I am tearing up. crap. now I have to blow my nose.
Happy Anniversary!
Congrats! And thanks for sharing the pictures with us! You guys are a cute family.
Happy Anniversary!!!! Very cute entry!
Those pregnancy hormones are really kicking in--you're getting all soft on us! Happy anniversary you guys!
I"m not gonna lie. You almost made me tear up, which would have been a disaster since I've just finished applying my make-up for work. Watch it, sister!
aw, happy anniversary :-)
here's to good marriages and lots of babies!!!
I love that you are totally smitten with him. Wonderful pictures! You are gorgeous!
Happy Anniversary!
I think I posted a blank comment. Please don't take that the wrong way. I was just practicing because I wanted to be sure to say just the right thing. They say you should never congratulate a bride, so congratulations to your husband for snagging you!

Awwww so adorable.
Happy anniversary! Great pictures and sweet tribute.
THANKS EVERYONE! Seriously, I love the notes from you all!
And AJ, due to Advent, we, too, were banned from a Catholic church wedding, but my hubby is Lutheran, so we had a candlelight evening wedding in his Lutheran church with both his pastor AND my priest officiating. We did the counseling through both churches.
And, to clarify that i am a weirdo, yes, I dress my boys identically, no they are not twins, they are 11 months apart. They will hate me soon enough, but until that day comes, identical clothing it is.
Happy Anniversary! You guys look really happy together, and since you're already tipping the scales towards being together longer than not, I imagine you're stay that happy for many years to come.
Don't feel so bad about the identical clothing-- at least you don't have three kids all dressed identically, though they're about 6 years apart in total.
Actually, I should ask-- you don't plan to put all three in the same dresses once the girl is born, do you?
You two are so cute, and so is that little (or big?) family of yours. Congratulations. I love the picture of you two kissing at you wedding.
You are beautiful!

Awwww. That made me start to cry. My wedding is in 7(!) months. I loved that last picture.

Happy Anniversary - that was a beautiful post.
Happy Anniversary! I just love the wedding pics. They're simply beautiful.

That was lovely. Enjoy it while you can!!! (Was that cynical?? I'm not sure......)
Man, wasnt it four years when it all went wrong over here? JUST KIDDING! Been married 7.5 and loving almost every minute.
