On This Day...

My apologies to our great friend and incredible photographer; I actually looked for the scanner cable at 3am, but to no avail. Even Adobe Photoshop can't help but so much.


...I married my best friend. If I'd ever done an album, I could show you that our invitations said that, and more. You, my dear readers, have reminded me to pull out the wad of photos and order. Even if they're not here for Christmas, at least I'll FINALLY have ordered my wedding photos.


Ten years. I won't lie; there have been rough spots, but today, they are mere blips in my memory, and they honestly weren't so bad after all. He is indeed my Knight, and I am blessed. He is solid, steady and a saint. He not only puts up with me, but often dotes upon me and caters to my crazy whims. I found a man who loves dogs as much as I do, who understood the female firefighter that I was, who has seen me through all kinds of challenges and changes, and we've loved and laughed through them all. Ironically, a few days before my first wedding, I told the Knight and another long-time male friend that I was marrying the guy because he was the only man in the world who would put up with me. I was wrong, on so many counts, and that title is, and perhaps always has been, held by the man in these photos.




When he's got a good buzz going, he'll even dance with me, and smile for the camera. (Thanks Mona!!)

A great big raspberry to the doubters who said we'd never last. We're still together, still going strong. Here's to many more, my darling Knight!

Happy Anniversary! To many more wonderful memories and adventures! I'm glad I'm not the only one who waited to print photos - we didn't print our honeymoon pictures for 5 years. Your photos look great! How could there possibly be any doubters in your corner.....
