One Year Ago Today

I was the most nervous I had ever been in my life - you see, October 29th, 2005 was the day I was married to my beautiful, charming, patient, kind and loving wife, Cheryl...and, man, was I a nervous wreck all that day. Well, I was up until I ordered a juice at the bar and my best man had it spiked with a triple shot of vodka...after that, I was a lot more relaxed, though I didn't know why until later.

This past year has been an endless delight for me, and I cannot thank my wife enough for what she has done. And, so, Cheryl, I would marry you a thousand times over - you are the spark which set my life afire.

I ask my wife if she will marry me, probably 5 -10 times a week. She keeps saying yes.

I'd marry my hubby of 14 years all over again too. Congrats!

Marrying mine was the smartest move I ever made. Her wisdom, prudence, and beauty have been and continue to be the greatest gift God has bestowed on me. Hope you are as lucky.
God bless.

I married my amazing wife one year ago today as well. It was and will always be the greatest day of my life. I wish you and you wife the best in life.

P.S. Keep up the great work and sticking to what you believe in.

That is the most beautiful thing I ever heard. My husband of two years and I always joke about when he proposed - I was on drugs. I had just gotten out of the hospital after intestinal surgery. I said 'yes' and I would do it again with or without drugs.

congrats on marrying over your head.....i did too
but i'm concerned about your level of overall awareness
that you couldn't taste 3 shots of vodka in a glass of juice.....?????

Congrats. And sometimes a shot of vodka is just what the doctor ordered...
