I'm not so good with those wordy thingys

On this day in 1994 I walked down the aisle to marry the man of my dreams. He looked so handsome standing there in his tux. I on the other hand was crying like a baby. Not the pretty crying with a few tears running down my face, the ugly kind where you can't seem to unwrinkle your face. I had been waiting for this day and the emotion of it all just came pouring out as soon as I heard the wedding march start.

To be honest most of the fine details of that ceremony are lost. Sure I remember saying our vows but the other stuff like the looks on peoples faces and the sound of the singer they are all missing. I just remember looking into his warm brown eyes. Oh how they sparkled. You know how you can tell if someone is smiling just by seeing their eyes? That was CCB's eyes.

There are times when I look back and think it couldn't possibly be 13 years ago that we became man and wife. Then I look around and see all the things the years have brought us. Two children, stretch marks, grey hairs, and a house full of memories. One thing hasn't changed though, I still get lost in those warm brown smiling eyes.

I love you CCB.

These 13 years have been amazing. I am so glad we have spent them together, and no matter how dark the times we've always come back stronger and closer then ever.

I love you, maddly! Can I be your "Daddy"!?!?

Awww sweet! I hope you never end up as happy as me and Mr T and if you do, make sure you hide the body well.

Lets have a wedding photo of you two lovebirds!

I read this yesterday, but couldn't comment for some reason; you made me laugh about crying at your wedding. I did the same---from the moment i stepped out the door of my mum's until everyone had kissed us, I cried---I thought I might, so I bought a dress with pockets, in which I put a dainty lace handkerchief which didn't meet my needs---not even close. And the nosse---I can't bear to think of that red pointy thing between my two puffy eyes. Luckily, I was wearing red, the Chinese colour of happiness, so it might have blended in.
