Reliving our Wedding Day: Celebrating our 1st Anniversary

Today, TC and I celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary and throughout the day I found myself looking at the clock to see what time it was and then reminiscing about what we were doing this time last year. I still can't believe that it has been 365 days since we vowed to "have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do us part." As we made that commitment to each other, we were surrounded by our loving and most caring families and friends. I will forever be grateful for the memories that we made and shared together on September 20, 2014. It will always be my favorite day of every year and I have YOU to thank for that, TC.

I wish that I could push the rewind button so I could slip back into my wedding dress, slide on my glittery heals and enjoy the entire day again with you, our wedding party, our family and our guests. I want to experience the feeling that I had as I was getting ready for the biggest day of my life, the feeling when they open up the doors to the church and I see you waiting at the end of the aisle for me, and the feeling that I had when we danced our very first dance as Mr. and Mrs. Chalk. Speaking of our first dance, those lyrics will always bring me to tears and I will forever cherish the moments when we drop whatever we are doing so we can dance in the middle of the kitchen to Kenny Chesney's song, "You Had Me From Hello" as Tenley and Bo watch us.

"One word, that's all you said

Something in your voice called me, turned my head

Your smile, just captured me

You were in my future as far as I could see

And I don't know how it happens, but it happens still

You asked me if I love you, if I always will

 

Well you had me from hello  

I felt love start to grow

The moment I looked into your eyes you won me

It was over from the start, you completely stole my heart..."

Celebrating 1 year with the man that has loved me unconditionally, supported me throughout our journey, comforted me during times of sadness, and celebrated my biggest joys! I know that we will always find joy in the ordinary and love in each of our adventures. I am so proud to be your wife, TC and I can't wait to see what is ahead of us in the years to come. I love you to the moon and back {and back again}!
