Going to The Chapel
We had a very simple wedding. I found the girls dresses with two hours in one day. I put their little bouquets together myself. The flowers in the foreground came out of our front yard. We got married by the clerk of courts with my mother, his parents, his brother and sister-in-law and their children looking on. Our children stood with us, two beaming, one crying and trying not too (I have to find that photo, it is a beautiful portrait of complete happiness).
My wedding band is plain and simple and plantinum. My engagement ring is a 5.63ct pink star sapphire that came from Burma and white sapphires from Sri Lanka, not a jewelry store and because I do not care for diamonds.
Steven's wedding band is titanium, inlaid with silver. It is scratchless and has developed a beautiful rich luster over the year. It is hard to tell it from platinum.
We chose the titanium because I am allergic to gold and some other metals. Sometimes just touching my skin the metal will leave a blister, like a burn. The titanium is what is used in the body to piece bones back together and is non-reactive. We can hold hands without my skin reacting.
What a beautiful couple, family and life you've made. Very lucky family to have each other. Congratulations!!! Happy Anniversary Angie!
Today is my 20th (yes, that's two-oh) anniversary.
How cool. ;)
Love the pix, Angie. Hope you're feeling better!
~hugs~
Happy Anniversary.
Great pictures. I have never seen a picture of you before. It is amazing how different people look than in your imagination.
It sounds like you had a wonderful wedding and now have a wonderful life with your love and all the children. Have a great day.
Hope you feel better soon.
Angie:
Quick question, I thought Steven had a son, does he have a daughter? Are the three girls in the picture Colby, Gracie, & (Stevens daughter)? Just curious.
Thanks
Kate
I have 2 girls; Colby and Gracie.
He has 1 girl; J.
I was a surrogate and had a boy for someone else.
I am now pregnant.
Yours, Mine and Ours with a twist.
And a happy anniversary to you, too, Angie.
Happy Anniversary Angie (and Steven). So glad to have made your acquaintance.
Happy anniversary! by the way, my platinum band gets dull pretty quickly. I get it shined twice a year. Kind of a pain in the butt! Titanium is a great choice in more ways than one.
Angie and Steven: HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! Thanks for sharing the photos; all of you look wonderful and happy, and the flowers are lovely.
That's wonderful! Happy Anniversary you two! May you have many many many more!
My mom's allergic to metal too, she can wear gold but it has to be real gold, and she now just found herself a titanium watch :) She's never had a watch that wasn't plastic before.
Happy Anniversary to you both- and for me- I'm left with yet another wonderful thought-"marry the person you can't live without"- Have a great day all- the pic's are beautiful- you and your family are all lovely!
When I was younger the idea of marriage was to me like sticking a fork in your eye, not too pleasant. I'll admit I was wrong. It wasn't that I couldn't live without him, it was I was so miserable without him if I was miserable with him I could live with that easier, lol.
Wishing you many more anniversaries and this 1st one be the start of something grand. Happy Anniversary!
Beautiful, Angie. Congratulations on everything. Happy Anniversary to you both. You are both truly blessed.
Beautiful post and pictures! Thanks so much for sharing. Happy Anni
~K!
Happy Anniversary Angie, and many many more.
Happy Anniversary Angie & Steven. Wishing you a lifetime of happiness!
I love the girls' dresses! It looks to me as though J. resembles both of your girls, at least in coloring. And I love the picture of you and Steven.
What a lovely post! Happy Anniversary!!
Beautiful dresses on the girls and you! And now a face with a name! I wish you and Steven a wonderful first anniversary! May you have a good 50 more!
Happy Anniversary...I hope you celebrate a hundred more!
Congratulations, Angie. May your next year be doubled in blessings. Lots of things we have all done that we "never dreamed we would do" that have worked for the better of all. God bless your family.
