13 years ago....

I was nervous, anxious, and in oblivious to what was going to happen to me. I married Kevin 13 years ago today, and wow...how things have changed. I was 19, and thought I knew what the world was like, and boy...I was ready to conquer. And to be quite honest...conquer..we did! We haven't had it easy...5 years + in the Navy...6 moves between Virginia and Maryland, schooling, a 6-month tour, new cities, new grocery stores (thats been a constant problem for me!:), new friends...holidays both alone and together...and without our parents, brothers, and closest friends around us. It was hard...it was some of the most difficult times in my life, but also we grew. We grew in so many ways, and thankfully we grew together. Thirteen years later, I know I made the right choice to marry you Kev-and look how far we've come! Happy Anniversary to Us!!

Your wedding day is such a special day to me. This was my first date with Ben that my parents let me go out. I remember sitting in the back of the church and you looked beautiful!! You and Kevin are a perfect match. I am SO thankful for you both! Congrats!
