Happy Anniversary to us!!!

On September the 16th, Chris and I celebrated our 14th wedding anniversary! My, my how we have changed in 14 years. I am going to go down memory lane for just a little bit. I met Chris my senior year of school around the square. I went to get something to drink with him in his little black Ford Ranger pickup truck and from then on it was a match. It is a little funny because the first time that he called to ask me out I had to tell him that I already had plans which was true but he thought that I didn't want to go out with him. So he almost didn't call back for a second time. At the time we started dating I was 17 and Chris was 22. My mother didn't freak out over the age gap because she knew the family and my sister Robin had finished school with Chris's brother Bryant. Our first date we went to the movies to see "Sleepless in Seattle" and then to Ryan's to eat. After a few months of dating I knew that he was the one that I had been praying for all my life. After a year of dating he proposed to me on September 21, 1994. We then married the following September of 1995. It rained all day on our wedding day. I remember on the way to our honeymoon in Gatlinburg that I started crying because we were lost and we kept going around these 90 degree turns and I just knew that we were going to run off the mountain. Needless to say we made it there safe and sound. As far as celebrating for our anniversary, Robin kept the kids while we slipped off to go and get some dessert because it was on a Wednesday night. Lillian kept wanting to sing happy birthday to us. I hope and pray that Chris and I will have many more years together.
Still more to come.........
