My Creative Space...

Is lying idle today.

Instead I'm taking some time for a trip down memory lane as we celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary.

Excuse the dodgy scanned pics - yep I was married in the pre-digital era, that ages me doesn't it!

Looking back at the photos I remember how happy and calm we both were that day.
How it really was a fun celebration and we had a great time.

I remember how cold all the girls were getting the photos done.

How tall you looked next to both our little old grandmothers!

I remember the out of tune trumpet player and the squeaky note he hit as we walked out of the church.

How you kept standing on my dress, and apologising.

I remember how happy my Grandmother looked when she saw the lace from my mum's dress had been used on mine.

And I will never forget how very happy I was to be marrying my best friend and the absolute love of my life.

And that's still how I feel today.
Happy anniversary honey, you are a fabulous, husband, friend and also father and my life is so much better because you are in it.

Happy anniversary Karen!
beautiful bride (and groom!), gorgeous dress, and so lovely to incorporate something from your mum's dress. Did you make it yourself?

So this was the start of your blissful contentment :)
