maybe happiness didn't have to be about the big, sweeping
circumstances, about having everything in your life in place. maybe it was about
stringing together a bunch of small pleasures

Story time..
Press play.


Once upon a time Mr. Hammer and I were in love denial.
I remember so clearly the moment I knew he loved me which had me questioning my feelings. (which were LOVE also) We were driving back from Ogden and I as usual was leaning over the console staring at his amazing facial features. (It sounds so silly now. ha) I believe we were in his car. Which is weird cause we drove PEG everywhere... still do. ;) Anyways... this song was playing and Tyler was singing it to me... as usual. You see this song was a regular in our drives. But this time it was different. It felt different. It seemed to overwhelm and suck the air out of the car because there it was in his eyes.
Love.
There was no more denying it. I remember feeling lightheaded. I didnt know what to do but never before had I enjoyed not breathing so much in my life! The song ended. Now what?
As we all know I am not one to mess around or beat around the bush. It is what it is. So... later that night we were cuddling watching Pearl Harbor again for the 40th time. (I really wanted to see this classic but we always seemed to end up distracted ;) This was one of those distracted moments... I was staring again into Mr. Hammer's eyes and he was staring back and he said "I wish this would last forever".
("YES! This is it!" is what is going through my mind)
Not wasting anymore time I said "Well, do you love me?". (In case any of you are wondering this is two/three weeks after we meet, a meeting of his parents, a somewhat bad 4th of July boating trip with my family, a break up and a make up. :) Mr. Hammer says.... HE LOVES ME! So of course I am like... I LOVE YOU TOO!
....Happily Ever After.
(Thank you KC and JoJo)
The End.

We recently experienced the most wonderful day of our earthly lives!
I didnt think it would make that much difference in how I feel about My Mr. Hammer because I already knew I would be with him forever. Now that its real its the most amazing feeling and has changed my whole life and how I feel about him, our marriage and how I treat everyday life. There is no better feeling than to know you will be with the ones you love the most for internity!
Here is a glimpse into our day thanks to the wonderful Briar!
