Happy Anniversary
Apr. 1st, 2010 11:00 pmOne year ago today, Tim and I played the best April Fools prank that wasn't actually a prank. We got married, and only told a very small handful of people, and then announced it on facebook and livejournal. Of course, almost no one believed us, till we posted photos.
A week earlier, he asked me to marry him in Nelson Park, here in Virginia, at the same place we were to be married. He was kind of upset when I picked that park to get married, because he had picked it months earlier, to ask me to marry him, he didn't want me to think he was copying. Two weeks earlier we picked up our marriage license. We do things the oddest way sometimes.
We were married by an 85 year old man named Col. Ulysses Xerxes White, a small group of friends attended.
I met Tim through livejournal, in August of 2004. I fell in love with him, and even though we had some major bumps along the way, with me living on an Island on the west coast of Canada, and him being in the busy metro DC area of the USA, we did it, and it was a good decision. It was a very big decision for both of us, not only life changing for Tim, but changed everything for me, from moving from my family and friends, my country, everything I knew. Became a step mom.
In the last year, we got married, we started and finished our immigration process. In one week, we bought a house, I flew to Canada to prepare for our wedding there, and we had our interview with homeland security. We threw a great wedding in Canada, in my parent's back yard, with a fruit and dessert reception. My main goal for the wedding was to have as many people who I love and who love me to attend. Children were not only allowed, they were welcomed. We came home and moved into our new house and decided to try for a baby, and here I sit now, on my one year anniversary with a little one kicking me. *tears*
I never actually posted my wedding photos here on LJ, life just felt so busy at the time. In honour of my first anniversary with Tim, here they are. Many many photos:

we have a beautiful life.. :)
