July 2nd

This date will forever hold a special place in my heart.  It was 5 years ago today that Matt and I exchanged vows with each other, not knowing where life might be 5 years later.  On another note, this day 31 years ago is when it all began for me.  My parents were wed and made their commitment to each other.  I learned so much from them over the past 27 years and can't wait for Matt and I to be celebrating 30+ years together.  And the most recent excitment on this date was 1 year ago when we found out that we would be expecting our first child.  We had been trying for 18 months and weren't sure that a baby was in God's plan for us at that time.  I will never forget when Matt came out of the room while I was sitting on the couch in Destin and he gave me a hug.  I automatically thought the test was negative again and he was consoling me until he asked if I was ready to be a mommy... boy was I ever! 
For these 3 reasons, July 2nd will forever mean the world to me!
