WOW! It’s September 9th. My favorite day of the year! It’s Matt’s and my wedding anniversary. I’m so blessed. 7+ years ago I thought nothing could mend my broken heart, but then a miracle happened. My kids introduced me to Matt. He helped me not only repair my raw, open wounds but rejuvenated my soul. The day we were married– 09-09-09, was the happiest day of my life.

September 9th, 2009 was a gorgeous day. We had our ceremony and reception at Thanksgiving Point. Here are some of our wedding memories…

Matt and I took ballroom dance lessons from Andrea Hale (Dancing with the Stars) for a few months before our wedding. Then for the last few weeks, our kids joined in to learn a family dance to perform at the wedding reception. We danced to the song Forever, by Chris Brown.

The wedding cake was perfect for us.Matt’s favorite thing is chocolate and I love red roses. It was also fun having them separately tiered on the table.

Thank you so much D’Andrew International Photographer for these amazing pics! Next to choosing Matt, having you there was the best decision of the day! Fantastic memories caught.

My theme song the day we were married was Rascal Flatt’s, Bless the Broken Road. It described my feelings perfectly that day…
