Celebrating my 15th Wedding Anniversary!

15 years ago, Donnie and I "tied the knot"

It was a very hot July afternoon

(what was I thinking)

It was about a year after Justin (our oldest) was born...

(we didn't want to be married just because I was pregnant)

our family and friends braved the heat and joined us at our simple ceremony

Even though it was about 100*...

we still enjoyed our time :)

15 years later, my husband never ceases to surprise me

No.... I didn't get 

a new car

a new house

nor a bigger diamond

that would have been nice too...maybe next year...ha ha :)

but.....Nope

My darling honey blind folded me and took me out for an ice-cream

yep...still blind folded

I stayed in the van...I don't like stuff like this....

you should have seen me.

I played along with him though

I didn't know where he was taking me

After I felt like I just got off space mountain,

trying to figure out where on God's green earth we were headed to....

I actually guessed...

The duck pond

The duck pond is rather special.

This is the place where he and I would walk for hours 

after having our ice-cream....well actually it was TCBY frozen yogurt

(it was closed down so the gas station ice-cream did the trick)

This is the place where we would

talk about our future and our children we would someday have

I actually had my own plans to surprise him

He beat me to it...

:)

And since it was our "Crystal" anniversary 

(15 years is the crystal anniversary)

He couldn't afford to buy me crystal

so.....Krystal burgers did the job...

I will always remember this day :)

This all happened on July 1st so I am way behind on playing catch up with my blogging. 

In a few days I will share how we spent out 4th of July....

Here is a sneak peek
