Happy Anniversary to Us







Doyle and I will celebrate 13 years of marriage on the 17th of this month. I wanted to take this opportunity to give tribute to the man of my life that has made me the happiest woman in the world. When we look at our lives, it truly is a miracle that we ever met. I have never doubted that he was the man for me. He loves me so much, and tells me every day that I am beautiful. I told him that I might start to believe him pretty soon. I admire his close walk with God. He usually gets up and goes to church to pray before I wake up. He provides for us and loves his children.
We had a Christmas wedding and left for our honeymoon in a hot air balloon. When we watch the video of our balloon floating away, Johnny Mathis song "Give Me Your Love for Christmas" is playing softly. It is one of my favorite songs. When I first met Doyle, I asked God to let me get to know this man. I will forever be grateful to God for allowing him to become my husband and best friend.

Happy Anniversary! God truly gives the best to those that leave the choice with Him! Have you ever gone on an Anniversary Ballon Ride?:)

Thank you for sharing the beautiful pictures from your wedding. I remember hearing that you all floated away in a hot air balloon. I would have loved to do that after our wedding reception.

Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary....Sounds like you all are truly happy! That is such a blessing in today's age.....So many people are not so happy, if you know what I mean. I loved the tribute to your husband. Your wedding looked so beautiful...Was Mary Beth Sproles one of your attendants?...I couldn't tell for sure. She is such a precious friend to me...She often talks about how much she enjoys your friendship! Loved the Christmas pictures,too..I would love to attend that singing Christmas tree one time in my life. You looked pretty in your hat! Merry Christmas to you all!
