"Oh baby she's beautiful"

The other day on facebook I made mention in a status that my only regret for eloping the way we did, was that we didn't even think to take even one picture.  Not a single one.  I have no pictures of my marriage day with West.  And that kind of sucks in my book.
Today West sent me this via text.  It's from after our elopement, but still during that time when we thought we'd do a wedding.  We even went dress shopping.  He was very insistent that he was going to have a say in the dress I wore.  I told him he could help narrow it down to two or three but he didn't get to know the final decision.  It was a good compromise. Of course, by now we know we're too busy living to do a wedding.  Maybe sometime later in life we'll get around to a renewal of vows.
"Oh baby she's beautiful.  MINE. May not be a wedding photo but close enough ;)"
How grateful I am, during this week of Thanksgiving, for a man who actually loves me.  He truly does.  He doesn't tear me down.  He lifts me up.  He holds on to me, he cherishes me, and he leaves me with no doubts that he feels this way.  How blessed am I to have him in my life.

My favorite part about this picture is the circus in the background. Completely awesome.

My thoughts exactly! I love all the kids in the background, you are BRAVE to take them all dress shopping.

They were so excited. They had their notebooks to rate the dresses on who well the liked, or didn't like them. :) They were so good.
