When Stephen and I got married it was small. When I say Small I mean .. Me, Stephen, my two wonderful friends and a very cute little old judge in a Furry Russian hat. We had a quick lunch after and before I knew it the recruiter took my husband away and we didn't see each other until the next morning. Not exactly the wedding of my dreams but I was marring the man I love and had people who loved and supported us by our side. Oh, did I mention we wore hoodies? Yep, I was sporting my Cyclone gear at our wedding. Our reason for the hoodie wedding was simple. We made a promise to ourselves that we WOULD have a wedding. Everyone made it clear to us that "everyone says that..but no one actually DOES it " well..WE DID IT!
We recently came back from Jamaica where we were married on the beach. White dress, handsome husband, cake, champagne and paradise all around us. It was amazing and I feel blessed we were able to do this for ourselves.
I loved my husband the day I married him. I thought my heart couldn't love him more the day we had sweet Sophia. He left for Iraq and I thought my heart would break. I had never felt more love for him than I did watching him walk away. Then we spent a year apart and we found a new type of love for each other. I loved him even more. So to be blessed with the chance to tell him how I felt that special day on that beach was amazing.
