I had this card on my blog before but it's a favorite image of mine...because I felt it could of been me at the age of four and my Jim at the age of 5 because that's how old we were when we met for the first time...
My Wedding dress...
They were very pretty when my husband gave them to meHonest!!! smile
Pretend they are dried flowers...
I was reading Lynn's blog where she posted about her 30Th Wedding Anniversary...

Lynn wrote a beautiful tribute to her husband...
Lynn wrote a beautiful tribute to her husband...
and it dawned on me that our Wedding anniversary was last week and I
never posted about it or showed the beautiful roses that my husband
bought for me...(of course they were PINK) I took a photo right before
I had to get rid of them...I should have remembered to take a photo
when he first gave them to me...but things have been so busy lately...
(like everyone else these days I am sure...)
this year made me a bit sentimental so I went looking for my wedding
dress that I made...and decided to show a picture of it...(and NO I cannot fit in it anymore!)
It's not my original wedding dress because we eloped (as teenagers)
and I never had an official wedding dress or a wedding photo when we were married
I have to tell you, If anyone would ask me what the biggest regret in my life was
I would have to tell them...That I don't have a wedding photo/or any photos taken
us of that year we were married!
We renewed our wedding vows a few years later, and I made a dress for that day
and our friends at church gave a little party afterwards...nice surprise.
We also renewed our wedding vows on our 25Th anniversary, and on
Marriage Encounter. I guess you can say we our REALLY MARRIED!
Wonderful card, such a beautiful image. Happy Anniversary, I loved your story, the beautiful wedding dress and the flowers. I can picture them in all their glory!
