I LOVE YOU SCOTT ARNOLD!


19th Wedding Anniversary!

It just doesn't seem possible.  I still remember how my heart would flutter everytime my teenage boyfriend Scott Arnold would come bag for me when we worked at Publix.  I would act so COOL, but inside I was a MESS!

Long story short?  Here we are 19 years and four children later. I still look forward to seeing his name on my caller ID, hearing his van door shut, signaling he is home.

Last week at co-op was our Candy Gram day and my Scotty surprised me, by sneaking one in when I was busy!

It looked like this:



Imagine my SURPRISE when I opened the gram it said:



(..., and have 4 of my children, give up a career, be a stay at home mom and Homeschool them all)


Which reminded me all over again why I fell in love with this man of mine.

I happened to buy a new copier/scanner/printer this weekend and so I thought I'd take you down memory lane with me as I go back in time...,

There..., All DONE!


Whoops!  Those buttons kept coming undone!


Ok, so we were young, in love and CRAZY!!


But we made up!

My dad, mom, Grandma, Me, Scott, Nanny, my baby brother Tim and my older sister Paige.





Now here's a weird piece of trivia..., here is my beautiful mom on my wedding day and I realized that in this picture she is the same age "I" am now!?  I was 19 years old at the time and she was 38.


These are Scott's sisters Courtney and Nikki.  Court is 25 years old now and Nikki is 32 and pregnant with her and her wonderful husband Trey's 2nd child.


My first ever cookbook!  The funny thing is I didn't know how to cook very well back then and didn't think I would want to and now I LOVE to get creative in the kitchen.  I don't even remember who bought me this first cookbook but boy they started a hobby that is still going strong!

Actually, this was taken three years ago, but I thought it was cute!  We were at a birthday party!

Mary I love the pictures! You and Scott made a beautiful couple back then and a beautiful couple today. I almost bought a dress just like that ;) May the Lord continue to bless you with many more years together.

Oh and Autumn said, "Boy she has a lot of friends?" ;)

My two yr old saw your pictures and over and over again was yelling "pwincess beautiful pwincess" I thought you would like that since with boys you don't get that. It was very cute and your pictures are beautiful.
