Once upon a time....

Once upon a time I met this boy.... his name was Tyler. And we had a really cute story together.... a story that has lasted more than four years! That is a long story right? But let me tell you, the story is getting longer and happier, and funnier, and prettier, and exciting-er, and wonderful-er :) And it will continue to do so because we are going to be together forever!

I heard a song on the radio and it is strangely similar to our story. I think Tyler secretly wrote me a song and sold it to this country band because how would Thompson Square know our story this well? If you've heard this one, you now know how Tyler and I began our story, if you want more, you'll just have to keep reading.

We were sittin' up there on your momma's roof

Talkin' bout everything under the moon

With the smell of honeysuckle and your perfume

All I could think about was my next move

Oh, but you were so shy and so was I

Maybe that's why it was so hard to believe

When you smiled and said to me

Are you gonna kiss me or not

Are we gonna do this or what

I think you know I like you a lot

But you're bout to miss your shot

Are you gonna kiss me or not

It was the best dang kiss that I'd ever had

Except for that long one after that

And I knew if I wanted this thing to last

Sooner or later I'd have to ask

For your hand

So I took a chance

Bought a wedding band

And I got down on one knee

And you smiled and said to me

Are you gonna kiss me or not

Are we gonna do this or what

I think you know I love you a lot

I think we've got a real good shot

Are you gonna kiss me or not

So, we planned it all out for the middle of June

From the wedding cake to the honeymoon

And your momma cried when you walked down the aisle

When the preacher man said say I Do

I did, and you did, too

Then I lifted that veil and saw your pretty smile

And I said

Are you gonna kiss me or not

Are we gonna do this or what

Look at all the love that we've got

And it ain't never gonna stop

Are you gonna kiss me or not

Yeah baby I love you a lot

I really think we've got a shot

Are you gonna kiss me or not

March 24 marked four years post-wedding for us. I sure do love that boy who kissed me under the stars. I love him so much I spent our anniversary watching BYU basketball play in the sweet 16! Ok so it might that he loves me so much he was ok with these plans... Regardless we love each other a lot more than we love BYU basketball. The next day we took the kiddos to see Rango (strange but funny movie) and then we let Grandma take the kids and we went to our fave restaurant, Lock Stock and Barrel, and stuffed ourselves with prime rib and lobster because it was our anniversary so we were allowed to! And in case you were wondering, I love that boy who married me in the temple even more than I love lobster! It's only been four years and yet I cant remember life with out him. I'm pretty glad he kissed me.
