My parents 22nd anniversary was today. They're celebrating 22 years of life and love together. Today, I can honestly say that they are more in-love with one another than when they first began.
I've always cherished this about them and have determined, that come my time to marry, it will be with a man who will love me more and I him each and every year we're together just like how my parents share.

I took a trip to the mountains with my Justin McConnell. We drove the loop and looked at the colors in the trees.... all the while listening to James Taylor, "How Sweet it is to be Loved By You". Then we drove on to Gatlinburg to ride the Trolley of Lights... it's a trolley that takes you through all of the Christmas lights in Gatlinburg.
After a much longer time on the trolley than we both would've thought :) Justin took me to a nice restraunt in Gatlinburg.. where we had Fettuchini Alfredo.
From there Justin drove me to a park, and under a gazebo that he had filled with lit candles... he pulled out his guitar and sang to me a song he wrote-- FOR ME!!!!
Then, much to my surprise out of his pocket comes a white box, he's on his knees... asking if I would be his wife.
So, ladies and gentlemen... soon, I will be Mrs. Justin McConnell!!!!!!!
I couldn't be more happy... I love this man so much!
