Eight years ago today was the happiest day of my life – the day I was sealed to you for Time and all Eternity - our wedding day.  I knew we were beginning a crazy adventure, but that no matter what life threw at us, I would have you by my side.

It is still amazing to me that our story began Sophomore year of high school in a Consumer Economics class.  Little did I know that the quiet boy behind me in the cape (It was Madrigal initiation day.), would become my husband eight years later.  (Which means I have known you for 16 years now – wow!)  How was I to know that the boy who tormented me would become my best friend in the entire world?  That the boy who convinced to to start 3 unsuccessful waves during graduation would be the person I would choose to spend forever with?

Thank goodness I was clueless back then and that I stayed in touch with that old friend from high school, because where would my life be without you?  I love you more than anything and through all our ups and downs, I always will.  Thank you for 8 wonderful years, and even though we are spending this anniversary apart, know that I will be thinking of you and am forever grateful that you are mine.
