One year ago today: I woke up with a dozen butterflies in my stomach. Accompanied by nausea of epic proportions. Don’t worry. The nausea went away.
One year ago today: My sisters zipped up my white dress and placed my veil to perfection.
One year ago today: I met my best friend at the temple doors where my stomach leaped into my throat.
One year ago today: I froze my toes off while we posed for the camera. I didn’t even have to fake my smile. But I did have to hold back my tears of excitement while Jake whispered sweet comforts in my ear.
One year ago today: I entered the temple where the cold December air was immediately replaced with warmth I cannot even begin to describe.
One year ago today: I sat holding hands with my future companion in a quiet room alone. And had a panic attack. If I even had an ounce of doubt about marrying Jake, it was quickly squashed as he talked me through my nerves like a pro.
One year ago today: I walked hand in hand with Jake into our future. I gazed on the smiles of our loved ones and imagined the eternities.
One year ago today: I hugged. I laughed. I cried. And I secretly wished the day would never end.
One year ago today: I married my best friend.

I am NOT gonna lie Kate, you got me a little choked up! I'm sure it doesn't help that my hubs is gone working again, but that was seriously the sweetest thing I've read in a long time. You're an awesome role model and I really appreciate all that you, Brandy, and Kara taught me about growing up in our short time together!
Love you dude!!
