I Never Thought I Could Love Anyone But Myself Now I Know I Can't Love Anyone But You

Dear Shawn,

One year ago, we did a little of this:

and a lot of this:

and a bit of this:

and, erm, just a little bit of this:

We laughed,

we cried,

we danced,



and at the end of the day we were married.

This past year has been a ride; we've had our ups and downs but I wouldn't change a thing. I love that you match my stubbornness and intensity; you don't let me stomp all over you and though it may not always seem like it, I do appreciate that you try to keep me steady. And I appreciate that you still love me when you fail to keep me steady.

You rock, dude. I hope our second year of marriage is as much fun as our first year.

Love, Hillary

  1. Congrats! The post made me tear up. May you be just as happy in 40 years. Only better things to come. My husband and I have been married for 4 years. Now post two dogs and a baby boy I have never been happier.

  5. Congratulations! You made it through Year One, which is apparently supposed to be the hardest. I don't really understand that, because during the first year your linens and small appliances are all still nice and new and shiny. Who can have serious relationship problems when you own a brand new stainless steel toaster and pristine 600-count sheets? No one, that's who.

  12. It gives me the chills to think I remember that day (and felt a part of it) through your blog. And that my day is only a few short months away. But, this isn't about me. It's all about you. Happy Anniversary!

  23. I'm late but you know i still mean it from the heart: HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! Your photos made me all giddy for my wedding (two months!) and also really curious if you had dental floss on you at the reception. I can't eat corn without having some floss on hand. It's a must.
