Five Years

Five years ago about this time I was eating breakfast with my family at La Madeleines and heading to the church to wed Bryan James Chamness (or Chambless...which is what the preacher said). I remember feeling very calm and surprisingly unworried about the details. I may have gotten a little peeved later when the sound-guy checked out the reception slide show in front of Bryan (it was supposed to be a surprise) and perhaps a little frustrated when the florist delivered my bouquet of roses (orange ones...not exactly what I had ordered) and perhaps just a teensy bit bitter when the wedding planner delivered the news that the organist had forgotten to tell the soloist about one of our selections (oops!). But five years later all that really matters are the vows Bryan and I took in front of God, family and friends.

We've experienced so much: fun, frustration, travel, moving, new home, baby, communication, grief, new job, new friends, old friends, family, parenting...you know...MUCH. And I must admit, I'm so glad to have shared these things with my best friend.

Happy 5 years Bry! Love you!

Thank you Lord for a husband who chooses to loves You and me!
