6 A Love Story {Guest Post}

“Do you see him?” I whispered to my best friend, trying to discreetly point out the cute boy on the chip aisle of the grocery store. Casually leaning against the shopping cart talking to his two friends, his hoodie, with “Surf Rescue” printed on the back, caught my attention.

That was in 2005 when I first met my hubby.  This is the story of how we met, fell in love, had a quick Courthouse Wedding, moved around the world, and planned the real Wedding from 10,000 miles away (with the help of the fabulous Felicity of Felicity C Weddings).  In a few weeks, we'll be celebrating our 3rd Anniversary, and Fun Fact: It will actually be the first time we're together for it since the day we were married!
