I am so lucky to have such a wonderful hubbie and Carter is lucky to have you for a Daddy. You balance all of the responsibilities you have with such ease, and still manage to look good, too!
For those who don't know our engagement story, I love it. Brad's not too keen on it, but I think it's unique and that's what makes it special.
I was in law school at the time and was working on a hypothetical Divorce complaint and answer at Brad's house. He was out, supposedly at work but unbeknownst to me, was actually purchasing THE ring. He had these grand plans (again, I had no clue) to go to New York City and propose atop the Empire State Building with this big romantic, dramatic, movie-style proposal. Now, when Brad has a gift for someone he can't keep it a secret--he wants to give you the gift RIGHT NOW. So when he came home, he was avoiding me like the plague. I was sitting on the couch, reading to him (he was in another room) all the reasons that I could hypothetically divorce him for (the fake Divorces in law school are always so full of crazy scenarios). The next thing I know, Brad's in front of me, on one knee with something shiny and sparkly in his hand saying "if you ever want to divorce me, you'll need this first." My reaction you ask? I said, "Nuh, uh. No." (Ladies, this is NOT the answer he's looking for). I was so shocked I didn't know what to say. He then proceeded to properly ask me to marry him and of course I said "yes."
The rest is history...
Happy Annivsersary!
I love you more,
Kellie

What a SWEET engagement story (even better than being atop the Empire State Building in NYC). That's so spontaneous, witty, and made the most of such a busy time in your life, too, I bet!
What's a little bit funny about reading this is that the whole "go to New York City and propose at the top of the Empire State Building" is EXACTLY how Chris did it. (I'll share some pictures with you some time--he had given his camera to a lady nearby, who was to "watch" for him to pop the question, and start snapping pictures and SHE DID IT!).
Great love story you two!
Alison & Chris Cieszko
Happy Anniversary! Your love is seen in your pictures. You have gone through so much and it brings you to have a stronger marriage. As my dad says Love, Respect and Communication.
I still LOVE that engagement story!! On top of the Empire State building wouldn't have been "you" as much as that was.
Your wedding was such a beautiful day, but I think *Hot* might be quite the understatement....ha ha ha!! Wild to think that Connor was "at" your wedding too.
I know you 2 have been through alot this past year or so, but you have held on together and THAT is the most important thing and the test of a strong marriage too. SO proud of you & even more proud to call you our friends!! Happy anniversary!!!
