Life is not measured by the breaths you take but the moments that take your breath away.
I remember reading this quote to Mark when we were dating and falling into mushy-love.
I’m not sure if he was interested in my love for writing and words at the time but he feigned interest like any good boyfriend would.
In my sappy, twenty-something year-old world, I let my mind drift to the possibility of marrying this great guy and imagined our first kiss.
I dreamt of this moment, when he took my hands, wrapped them behind his back and kissed me as his wife…
taking my breath away.
I’m linking this post up with Natalie from Mommy of a Monster and Twins who asked us to pick our favorite wedding picture and share why it is our favorite.
What was your favorite moment of your wedding?

Hey – you might laugh at my question, but was your wedding kiss your first one? Because for us it was. Love the quote and the photo.
What a great picture from your wedding!
LOVE that I can see your smile beneath the kiss! And you look gorgeous!
What an adorable, beautiful couple!!
I love that quote. Sappy is good. As is having your breath taken away.
Gorgeous wedding photo!
Love it! Beautiful picture!
That picture is just dreamy. You look like a princess.
LOVE that he took your hands. LOVE
Gorgeous!!
And can I say — your hair looks phenomenal!!
So, so sweet!!!!! Love it!
Love it! What a great photo. You look gorgeous!
I love this photo. That is one of my favorite quotes.
Love it! So beautiful 😉
Yes, you’re gorgeous and all that and your hair looks fabulous. But to tell you the truth, I like your hair straight in your “About me” photo better. I think you’re hotter now. And believe me, I don’t say that to a lot of women.
Your New Friend, m.
p.s. I’m about to become your 500th Follower. I hope that comes with a prize. m.
Yay! So happy to have you as my new friend. My husband\’s name is Mark and I\’ve been to your blog and I couldn\’t love your family more. I\’ve sent my brother to your blog in hopes that he and his partner will be inspired by you guys and start giving me some nieces and nephews. So for your prize can I feature you here soon as my 500th follower? Please!!
Well, I don’t know how your fans will feel about you wasting one of your posts on me but, I love it! You can even make it a Saturday when no one is paying any attention to blogs. Unlike a Monday when people are reading them and trying to avoid work. That is very kind of you. Thank you!
All of our children are through adoption. If you brother has any questions about that, he can feel free to contact me. I love to share what I know on this top.
I’m glad that we are finally “friends”. m.
Oh good and it IS going up on a high traffic day. You are totally traffic-worthy! I will head to your site and find your email and then be in touch.
Love the pic and you can see the love in the picture! Thanks for sharing!
What a beautiful quote. That one will stick with me.
You made a gorgeous bride – naturally. 🙂 And that picture is very romantic.
oh, that got me all teary Jessica. You were a gorgeous bride, a beautiful couple!!!! I love that picture, that would have been one of my favorites too.
WOW!
So beautiful! And I agree with Tracy, gorgeous hair 🙂
It looks like that every day ;). Right after I finish my three hours in the stylist\’s chair.
As always, such great words and that picture is just incredible!
Such beautiful words from such a beautiful bride.
A beautiful photo and a beautiful post.
Gorgeous! My favorite picture is not our kiss. It kinda looks like I am leaning into him instead of the other way around.

STUNNING – you had like really awesome hair!
If only I had a stylist every day and five hours to get ready.
What a gorgeous pic!
