Do You Remember What You Were Doing....

......on this day twenty years ago? I do. I'll give you a hint...

Did you guess it? On April 22, 1989, Mr. Willoughby and I were married. It's hard to believe that twenty years have passed. It was such a wonderful day. I remember being so worried about tripping on my dress as I walked up the aisle or forgetting Mr. Willoughby's ring. I worried about the photographer showing up on time, the cake being delivered intact, the food at the reception being good, the DJ having the right music, and a hundred other things. The only thing I didn't worry about was the man I was marrying.

I wanted to put our wedding song on my player today, but I can't find the right version on Playlist. If you want to hear it, click on the video below.

I don't usually share personal photos, but since this is a special occasion, I'm going to.

With Mom and Dad before the wedding.

With my Dad, hoping not to trip.

"You may kiss the bride."

Finally married!

I wanted to include a picture from our honeymoon, but I couldn't find one with both of us in it. This was taken a few months later.

And in case you're wondering, I didn't trip on my dress, and I remembered the ring. The photographer showed up on time (but took disappointing pictures), the cake was perfect, the food was wonderful and the DJ had all the right music. Our wedding was all I had hoped it would be and more.

We were so young, I was 21 and he was 24, but we knew we had something special together. I can honestly say that we are as happily married today as we were on this day twenty years ago. I'm sure I'll be saying the same thing twenty years from now.
