Two whole years since...


Two years ago today, something amazing happened....

Wedding photos coming up!


We had a "first look"...

We read the vows we had written...

We were surrounded by our closest friends and family from all over the country...

We had a "first dance"...

And it was pretty much perfect.

Then a little later we went on a honeymoon...

And now it's been TWO YEARS of married life!

I blogged a lot about our DIY wedding preparations--I made my wedding dress, my bridesmaids' dresses, my birdcage veil, the vintage fabric bunting (and here), that chalkboard you see up there, the boutonnieres, my silk shoe clips, and a bunch of other stuff. Our photographer was my now good friend Becky of Studio 623 Photography, and she got my wedding posted onto Ruffled for all the world to see. I kept my sanity while hand sewing oodles of silk flowers for my dress and throwing together floral arrangements and scheduling a day with so much to do, and am proud of my hard work and so grateful for my friends and family and husband who helped create such a memorable day for us.

But now it's been two years. Since then we've bought a house, both gotten new jobs, I've written a book, we've gone on trips together, we've gotten healthier and started eating meat, and he's started an awesome blog about it... a lot has happened! And all the way, I've had my best friend by my side and holding my hand!

I could say a million nice things about my husband. But today I mostly want to say how grateful I am for my partner, our home, our lives.

And here we are today.

Happy anniversary, Jason!
