Side By Side-Year By Year

Twenty two years ago today, I took a leap of faith and married my one true love.  From the moment Chris and I went on a blind date back in 1988, he won my heart.  I was never a believer in "love at first sight" until he walked into my life. I still remember that feeling when I first saw him.  There was something inside me that told me he was "the one".  Our courtship was fast and furious and we were engaged only 3 months after our first date. Then, 10 months later in a Baptist church in Lenoir City, Tennesee, we said "I do" and the rest is history. 

We've had our share of struggles and triumphs just like every other married couple, but I'm proud to say that we're one of the success stories.  I love Chris more than I ever dreamed possible.  He's my sweetheart and my best friend.  There is nothing I'd change about our lives up to this point and I can only imagine that the coming years will keep getting better.  I feel honored to be his wife and his lifelong companion.  I look forward to growing old with him by my side!
