Brian and I will celebrate our ninth wedding anniversary today. I cannot believe it's only been nine years...it seems so much longer (but in a good way).
I think the best tribute I could give him is to post the lyrics to Shania Twain's "You're Still the One." We caught so much flack from some of my closest friends when we met and were married. Yes, we got engaged after about 2-3 weeks. Yes, we were married 4 months later. And you know what...I'd do it all over again.
Sure...we've had our struggles, and it hasn't been easy or perfect. Everything we've been through and dealt with has only made us stronger and more committed to each other. We're in this for the long haul, and we meant the vows we exchanged on July 1, 2000. So, there's no turning back or getting out of this one. :)
So, honey..."You're Still the One", and I pray you always will be. I love you with all of my heart and soul. Thank you for being the best husband, father to our boys, and friend I could ask for. I love you!
You're Still The One lyrics
(When I first saw you, I saw love.
And the first time you touched me, I felt love.
And after
all this time, you're still the one I love.)
Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
Ain't nothin' better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missin'
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
I'm so glad we've made it
Look how far we've come, my baby.

Ahhh! Congratulations. You are an inspiration to me. Granted Heath and I new each other over a year before getting married.. we were very young (17 & 19).. and somehow we are making it.. it is good to know that it is possible.
Have a great day... and that is one of my favorite songs!
Congratulations! Happy Anniversary!
(I'm such a slacker but I wanted to *finally* come by and say hi and thanks for following me! =) )
Congratulations! I hope you both have many more wonderful years together!
Happy Anniversary! My bf just celebrated her 9th anniversary last week.
So nice! Happy Anniversary!
Happy Anniversary Sherrie! Very sweet post. At first I thought you meant the sone Still The One released by Orleans in the 1980's.
STILL THE ONE (Orleans)
We've been together since way back when
Sometimes I never want to see you again
But I want you to know, after all these years
You're still the one I want whisperin' in my ear
You're still the one I want to talk to in bed
Still the one that turns my head
We're still having fun, and you're still the one
I looked at your face every day
But I never saw it 'til I went away
When winter came, I just wanted to go
Deep in the desert, I longed for the snow
You're still the one that makes me laugh
Still the one that's my better half
We're still having fun, and you're still the one
You're still the one that makes me strong
Still the one I want to take along
We're still having fun, and you're still the one
Changing, our love is going gold
Even though we grow old, it grows new
You're still the one that I love to touch
Still the one and I can't get enough
We're still having fun, and you're still the one
You're still the one who can scratch my itch
Still the one and I wouldn't switch
We're still having fun, and you're still the one
You are still the one that makes me shout
Still the one that I dream about
We're still having fun, and you're still the one..
Always loved it! Oh I like Shania Twain's too. lol
That Orleans song is one of my favorites. I listen to it on my ipod all the time.
Happy Anniversary!!!
