Oh sweetheart, it has been a privilege and an honor to be married to you! I was that quiet and shy engineering student but with your help, I have become so much more! (Everyone that knows me, knows how true it is!) My love for you continues to grow every day. ❤️ Our love story continues on with three incredible married children with three equally amazing spouses! Our random introduction and that Pirates Party were the best encounters of my life!

Hi Liz, I have had that photo along with our wedding photo in my wallet since they were taken! When I travel, I pull out those photos and look at them to remind me how much I loved Natalie back then and how much more I love her today! Natalie is a remarkable woman and I am an incredibly blessed man!

Natalie, you had me in tears with this one! What a beautiful love story you and Tony share, and such a fantastic snapshot that he STILL keeps in his wallet!? Wow… my heart melted❤️. I loved all the quotes you used, all the links were fun, especially when you’re single and need a nudge to remember how to be loving to your friends and family. You had great essays! Your recipes always make me hungry lol you have such good taste!! And I can personally attest to your decedent dessert… a winner!! Thank you for sharing your heart and your story, this post is a blessing. Love you, dear friend xx
