I never thought I'd see the day...

On August 20, I married my best friend. After four years of dating one another, Krystal and I finally made it official. 

It was a hot and humid day in Southwest Missouri when we gathered at a beautiful park, all dressed up and anxious.  I'm not sure if the sweat I felt trickling down my back was from the heat or from the nervous anticipation of a wonderful life together.

My photographer friend, Heather Fison (you should really check out her work!), documented the day for us. Pastor Tom Matrone from Central Assembly of God officiated. My dear friend Mike Mills was my best man, and his daughter, Marissa Mills was Krystal's maid of honor.

Krystal was radiant in her beautiful dress.  I found myself speechless as she walked down the gravel path with her amazing smile dazzling us all.  Even Pastor Tom commented about her amazing smile as she walked toward us.

There are no words to describe what a wonderful friend I have in Krystal.  We've both experienced a lot of interesting events in our lives.  We've both struggled, failed, tried again and overcome.  I count myself to be amazingly blessed to have her as my partner.  I fall more deeply in love with her every day. 

There will be more pictures to come.  We want to make sure certain family members get copies before we publish them on the web.

I'd like to thank all of our friends and family who've been supportive of us for these four years.  You are appreciated, loved, and we'll never forget your contributions to our lives.
