Nine Years of Bliss...

Meghan and I are celebrating our 9th year of marriage today! I was thinking back on our wedding today and all the many wonderful and fun memories. Here are nine memories, one for each year...in no particular order;
* The wedding coordinator losing the reception center keys till 1 am.
* All our wonderful friends and family who traveled from all over the U.S. to celebrate with us.
* Meghan's brother reminding us that no matter what happened during the ceremony we would be walking out as husband and wife.
* The church being in the middle of remodeling and me calling Joan every day to see if the auditorium would be ready in time.
* How the wedding party got along so well, as if they had all been friends for a long time.
* Beautiful Meghan!
* Jeff's forever long toast
* The wonderful prayers of our friends; Jerry, Lana, Dennison, Colleen, Jim and Janet during the service
* Pastor Michael standing up in front of the church the Wednesday before the wedding and inviting everyone to join us at the ceremony

The list could go on and on...
Nine years and still counting, thanks for marring me Meghan! And thank you God for sharing Meghan with me.

I think my favorite memory was the Mouse ears. And tying up the little chocolates in the Tradd St. closet ... I mean apartment. And poor Melly riding 3 days on a bus just to cry through her song. And of course, how happy and radiant you both were. Happy memories.

I hope that I will find someone as wonderful, sweet, and lovely as Meghan...not as tall, but all those others sure.

What a fun post. I'll have to do something like that in August for Pierce. Thanks for posting on our blog! It was great to meet you guys too. Something funny-when we got home I had to take a pregnancy test to make sure we weren't following in your footsteps again! No luck this time. You'll have to go it alone.
