I am SO lucky to have my wonderful husband as the author of today’s post. Today is our two-year anniversary, and he’s absolutely the best husband in the world!
For those of you who have read Suzy’s posts you may know that I’m not very keen on having my family’s everyday activities posted on the internet. I’ve been somewhat supportive of Suzy’s writing but I prefer to keep my life, our life, more private. I’m trying to get more comfortable with all of it. Today, however, I am making an exception. Because today is the day I married a princess.
It was September 23rd. We planned a small wedding in a beautiful park that overlooked the Mississippi River. High up on a bluff, the location could not have been more perfect. The weather was cooperative in that it did not rain, but it was hot, too hot for September. We all endured through the heat however. All of our children stood up for us. Suzy’s stepmother, an ordained minister, officiated the wedding. It could not have been more perfect.
What I remember most was how beautiful my princess looked. I was stunned. I should not have been, because I knew she was beautiful, but this day was special and so was she. I’m still amazed that I have her in my life. But it was her inner beauty that attracted me to her, not to mention her determination, several years ago. Her joyful spirit is something that I love so much. I feel privileged to be surrounded by her positive energy. Her smile, her quirky sense of humor and her crazy laughter, her beautiful brown eyes looking into mine; all things that I cherish. I am truly blessed.
Happy anniversary Suzy!!
Thank you for all that you have brought to my life (except, maybe, the dogs). 
Thanks for putting up with all my dysfunction. Thanks for being there for me. Thanks for being my best friend.
And I’ll always be here for you. I’ll help you raise your children. I’ll save your little dog from certain death. (That’s another story in itself!) I’ll protect you from Blanco Diablo and I’ll cook dinner for you, fresh from the garden!
I love you babe, always and forever!!
No, thank you, my sweet husband! Thank you for writing this and for feeling this way. Thanks for protecting me, cooking for me, and putting up with my quirks and wackiness. These two years have certainly been a wild ride, and I wouldn’t trade them for the world. I love you more and more every day!
Happy Anniversary!

Ohhhhh! How sweet! Congrats, you two. Happy Anniversary! =)
Thanks!!!
Glad you liked it Baby! I went out on a limb there. I may have to tell yesterdays story next.
I would not trade our time together for anything either.
Yes, I think you SHOULD tell yesterday’s story, since you were in the thick of things and I wasn’t! See we’re creating an air of mystery here…
Oh my goodness, don’t ever let that husband of yours get away! Mine would have laughed in my face if he I asked him to do that! But then again, I won’t even tell him the name of my blog!
That’s the great part, I didn’t ask him to do it! He just wrote it and sent it to me this morning, saying “Here’s your post for today.” Isn’t that awesome!!
Happy Anniversary to a VERY ADORABLE couple!
Thanks!! And you were around at the very beginning!!
Congratulations, you two! Seems like you must feel about each other the way Mr. Bluejeans and I do. A happy, stable marriage is about the best thing on the planet – and I’m so glad you have it!!!
Thanks!! And I’m glad that we all have it! Makes life so much better.
I swear, my allergies JUST STARTED ACTING UP. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have something in my eye.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
Yeah, I get something in my eye every time I read it!! Thanks!!!
So sweet! Happy anniversary!
I’m always amazed when someone manages to get a spouse to guest post. Happy Anniversary.
Oh *swoon*
Will he marry me too, just so he can say nice things about me on my blog?
Happy Anniversary MWAH
Sure, he can marry you. It would be a good reason for us to visit Australia!!
I just read the whole saga. Great story. And it’s obvious that you two are crazy in love. Thanks for sharing this.
Wow, I can’t believe you read the whole thing! Thanks!! And we’re crazy. And in love.
Happy anniversary! My husband doesn’t like me writing on the Internet either. And I don’t blog about him, our marriage, our kids, or family life. Sheesh ….. what’s left to talk about except brazilian bikini waxes?! : )
Thanks!! I was pretty floored that he wrote that for me, since he is very anti social media. But if I wrote about a Brazilian wax or my breast reduction he’d freak out!
Hi.
