The Seven Year Itch

On Monday Denny and I celebrated our 7th anniversary! Way back in 2001 we got hitched at Park Cities Baptist Church and then danced the night away at City Club. I can remember every detail of that day so clearly! I specifically remember not being one bit nervous, which is very unlike me! I also remember Denny's best man, his brother, Kevin's face being battered, bruised, and covered with make-up! As well as Denny's dad's beautiful prayer, my dance with my dad, and of course Denny and I sharing our first dance! What wonderful memories! In the last seven years we have had our share of heartache, but we have also been tremendously blessed and shared much joy! There is no one else in the world I would have rather gone through all of it with other than Denny!



We didn't really get a chance to celebrate on Monday, so last night, our friends, Matt and Julie were kind enough to watch Olivia so we could grab a bite to eat at TruFire, a relatively new restaurant in Frisco. (They have the best mac and cheese! I urge all of you Frisco-ites to try it!) It was so nice to have a complete conversation without being interrupted once! A big thank you to Matt and Julie, we definitely owe you!

Your post made me cry! I remember it too - like it was yesterday. You and Denny have been through so much - more than any young couple should have to endure but it's only made your union stronger. You are an inspiration and we (Dennis and I) feel so proud to have been a small part of it!! Love, love, love you!
