J and I were married on October 16, 1999.
It's funny how you plan and plan and plan for a wedding, then the day itself is such a blur. What I do remember:
- The weather cooperating beautifully.
- My sister painting her toenails while wearing both her bridesmaid dress and her shoes, and my mother looking horrified.
- My brother, so excited to be wearing a tux. (He was 9 at the time.) He kept pretending he was James Bond.
- The only person I saw getting misty-eyed: my dad.
- Big Brother toddling into the reception with his grandparents, looking terrified of all the people.
- How pretty I thought my flowers were.
- J, being perfect.
Happy anniversary, hon.
