It became unseasonably warm as the day progressed
everyone made mention that the mild weather was a nice surprise
I was afraid I might get mud on my dress
but My father didn't let that happen
Walking down the isle
my glance was intercepted
by a man that stood just feet away from me
He was the reason I was wearing a beautiful gown, a glittery tiara, and that smile
He was the reason I was wearing a beautiful gown, a glittery tiara, and that smile
I loved how I looked as his bride.
I loved the way he looked at me
when he spoke his vows
What I remember most about that day was feeling like a princess
in a fairy tale
who finally got her prince
but I also remember how we made sure
to be OURSELVES
because after all it was OUR FAIRY TALE
I remember how it was snowing when we left
and how everyone was saying what a surprise it was
Then we drove to Niagara Falls
And we lived Happily Ever After
{{Insert choking sound here}}
Um, no
Not Exactly
But what has happened
is 7 years of ups and downs
of a house being transformed into a home
of having two beautiful little boys
of friends
of love
of anger
of sadness
of happiness
of LIFE
I didn't just marry him. I married us.
and sometimes US is the only thing that keeps me going
every single day
but life doesn't always make that possible.
I kinda wish we could do both,ya know
live a fairy tale and be ourselvesevery single day
but life doesn't always make that possible.
What is possible
is remembering the vows I made to him
7 years ago
I do.
What is possible
is loving him more
today then I did yesterday
I do. Do I Kerri take you Darren?
You bet your sweet sexy bottom
I DO.
Happy Anniversary Baby.
Kisses times 3 till infinity.

Kerri I love your blog you share so many great things with everyone. Just a super great job all the time.
Happy Anniversary!!!!
That was so cute! You were an absolutely gorgeous bride; so if rain is good luck on a wedding day, does that mean snow is too?

Thanks for sharing your photos and memories! My DH and I were married in February, and it was also unseasonably warm. While we were indoors for our reception, a storm passed through, but we weren't even aware of it. That's always part of the story when we talk about our wedding day. :)
Happy anniversary!

Just beautiful. Happy anniversary.
7 years ago I not only had a son but I gained a daughter, friend and wonderful addition to our family. We've had our ups and downs thru out the 7 getting to know each other and all of our ways but I think it has also helped me I guess you could say its been a learning process for both of us and I feel its getting better with time and as you say taking a step back for me also I'm not as focused on it any more and have been trying real hard.But you've given me two super duper grandsons from the love I see you have for my son,what more could a grandma want other than Jacek and Aidan I am very blessed to have all of you in my life..
awe.. how sweet is that.. i remember that's the first time i met you.. i also remember that's the first time i saw darren in over three yrs.. i remember sobbing like a little baby when darren came up and lit the candle, sobbing like a baby while you said your vows thinking, "i hope i have that someday".. congratulations and here's to seven more.. and then some... =)
