the Fifth dance...
Last night, my husband and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary...a few days late, yes..but we celebrated all the same. The day had come and gone so quickly hand in hand with another wedding. Well not just another wedding. ..a really fun, elegant, dreamy 300 person wedding and so of course my husband and I decided our anniversary would never know if we postponed it until the weekend was over and opted to sort escort cards and tie ribbons until late into the night.
Surprisingly, I didn't feel as if I missed out on anything at all. I got to sit and spend time talking with my husband who never complained. I also decided that spending time tying ribbons and sorting cards with this man was a gift of its own... because what husband, other than an amazingly supportive husband, would make me feel that anything that was important to me was important to him, even if it were tying ribbons and sorting cards.
Dinner was on the water at Jake's last night. I wore my dress, the one I wore after the ceremony on our wedding day...just as I do every year, the same one I wore when I heard him first sing the song he wrote to me. It was a gorgeous night and I stared at him wondering how 5 years passed so quickly. He reminded me that we would be together for a googol years . I actually learned what a googol was for the first time(10 to the 1ooth power, maybe you already knew that)....but that's a really long time.
After hula pie, we headed for home picking up our sleepy kids on the way. Sleepy definitely equaled grumpy. By the time we were back, Milla was crying and not wanting to fall back asleep, Finn was screaming that he didn't want to wear pull-ups to bed and that he was a big boy and the trash needed to be taken out for the morning and the dishes needed to be done. Every ounce of romance quickly flew out the window. I hung up my dress and searched for something comfortable...and by something comfortable I mean warm pajama bottoms and my husband's T-shirt. Soon enough though the kids were asleep and we were exhausted. In all the chaos, we had forgotten our dance.
In pajamas, my husband grabbed my hand to dance our first dance for the fifth time. There in our bedroom, among toys on the floor, he held me close and twirled me to our song as I tried to regain some dance moves from the year before. He's always been a better dancer than me. I felt as if I was in my wedding dress again, staring in to his eyes as everything else disappeared around us. Suddenly a googol didn't seem like such a long time. Happy anniversary husband. You still sweep me off my feet. I love you.

Glenn + Jill: Engaging
Okay...so from the moment I saw these two together at another wedding I was doing, I literally turned to my husband and whispered to him "I want to plan their wedding". Little did I know that Jill and Glenn had just begun dating at the time...and little did I know that that very thing was really going to happen. There really was going to be a wedding and I was going to get to be a part of it! I was immediately drawn to them as a couple. They emoted not only so much sweetness with each other...but they were also captivating. It was so clear from that first small glimpse I saw them together, that they were MEANT to be together, even then, in the early stages. They truly have found something really special.
These images may just be some of my very favorite from Natalie! They really all are incredible and show just how fun these two are. Don't you just want to hang out with them and ride ferris wheels and rollercoasters? :) Natalie circled Jill's ring here, which is beyond gorgeous, but Glenn's face here I think is even more priceless. I love the way he is looking at her.
Jill and Glenn, I couldn't be more excited to share this journey with you!
