Somehow I won the marriage lottery (as it applies to me, of course, we all have our own ideas of the ideal mate): a guy who always makes me coffee just the way I like it, watches stupid TV shows with me and never complains, who doles out massages and never asks for one in return, someone who believes in me more than I do and who every day tries to make me see myself through his eyes. And while I may not deserve it, all I know is that I am incredibly grateful for all I have and what we've managed to build together. So enough of the mushy stuff and on with the photos, all of which were taken by our great photographers Mango Studios.
I decided to wear my hair up because I feared what would happen to my curls in the heat and I didn't want to be fussing with it all day, which I knew I would be. Having it up was the perfect choice for me!
