One Year Anniversary

June 12, 2007

Lots of people say that their wedding day was the best day of their life, but let's be honest - some people just say that because it's supposed to be the best day of their life (even though wedding days are actually typically stressful, chaotic, disappointing and tiring.) But I am one of those people who can truthfully say my wedding day was the best day of my life.  It was my dream wedding.  Here  is what I remember most:

• waking up too early and then going running, thinking the whole time "holy-crap-i'm getting-married-today!"
• the blessings Jesse and I got from our dads
• experiencing extreme nervousness driving to the temple, but then suddenly complete peace in the sealing room
• temple ceremony being the absolute best part of the day times a million, lots of hugging and crying
• our fun photographer who put even Jesse at ease taking pictures
• buying Mocha Salsa super chips in the drive-thru
• driving around in the back of the golf cart at Red Butte Garden
• how good-looking everyone in our family was in their wedding attire
• the loving tributes, musical numbers our friends and family gave at the dinner (see YouTube video)
• having so much fun talking to everyone at the reception
• the song "Jessie's Girl" blasting over the cello music
• giving/receiving a gajillion hugs
• feeling so very loved by so very many people
• driving to Stein Erikson Lodge, everyone honking at us (Speaking of Stein Erikson, I am writing this post a day early because we will be celebrating our one year anniversary there tomorrow! ) Hooray!
