As I look back on my life and all the crazy directions it has taken, I would have to say the craziest was when I found my soul mate in Texarkana! When I moved away almost 6yrs ago I never thought that on one of my trips back home that I would meet someone that would trap me with his handsome looks, wonderful conversation and his amazing heart! Who would have thought that our friends would have brought us together without even reliazing it. Well almost, my best friend Jennifer had it all figured out from the get go. She mentioned that we should date after watching us one night at Club Next, we always seemed to disapear from the world when we would talk. And then just a couple of months after dating she said we would be getting married before we knew it. I just ignored her & shh don't let her know I admited she was always right! :)

Our first year together was an adventure to say the least. We started off having to deal with my medical problems and the insane amount of pain that I was always in. But when I look back on it, the way James handled everything, really said a lot about him and I love him for it. I can remember the first time I really started to think that this was becoming something real and that was at Edge Fest. Edge Fest is a large outdoor concert held in Dallas every year and well my pain had been getting pretty bad but we already had the tickets and there was no way I was going to let concert tickets go to waste!! Me being me, I was trying my best to push past the pain but standing and walking all day really just made the pain too much to handle. Well, my hard headedness almost landed me passed out in the pit! So not a good thing!! But James was there to pull me out just as I was loosing all ability to focus and stand....He's my hero!! :) He was so worried and the look on his face made me even more worried than I already was. It was really sweet but I spent the rest of the concert trying to convince him that I was ok, well as much as I could be.

So between medical issues, my mamaw passing away and just everyday drama our first year was interesting. But it proved that no matter what happens our love continues to grow and makes us stronger!

As events unfold I will try my best to keep everyone updated! Thank you for your love, support and for wanting to share in our special day with us.

XOXO
