6 YEARS TODAY

6 years ago today, I rode to the temple in my parents car to marry the man of my dreams.

6 am.- Went to Aunt Kristen's house for her to do my hair

8am.- Got in car with my parents to drive to St. George Temple.  I remember feeling a very calm peaceful feeling.  I consider this a miracle because I get anxiety attacks.

I remember walking in the temple in my red and black dress and seeing Travis.  He was glowing and grinning from ear to ear.  I couldn't quit smiling either.

We went and signed the marriage license together.  It was so serreal.

I went and put on my wedding dress and finished getting ready in the Brides room.  It is such a beautiful room and luckily I was the only bride in there that day.  My mom helped me put my dress on.  My sister Shonell lent me a pearl bracelet as something borrowed.  I remember putting on my jewerly.

Travis and I met in the hall and walked to a room where our mom's were.  My mom helped me put on my Temple clothing, while Travis's mom helped him put on his Temple clothing. Both of our Mom's were shedding a few tears.

We walked up to a room where the Sealer talked to us and told me that he had the privilage of marrying my Grandparents and my parents and now me.  That was really cool to me.  He told us some other things that I consider sacred.

We walked in to the room and the ceremony began.  I remember looking around at all the friends and family that were there to support us and how grateful to them all I was.  I wrote down what the sealer told us in my journal.  The things they told us have proven to be great advice and comfort to me and Travis already in our short time of marriage.  I feel it was truly inspired. 

I remember all day long I could not help but smile.  It was and still has proven to be one of the happiest days of my life and the longer I am married to this incredible man, the wiser the choice to marry this man was.

I love You Travis and over the last 6 years I can honestly say my love has grown immensely.  He balances me out and I him. He dreams so big which that allows me to also let go of my reservations and dream big also.  We have had our struggles, but overall married life has been bliss.  I never knew any one could love me so completely, treat me so well, and balance me out so well.  Happy Anniversary!!!!
