5 Years Ago

5 Years ago, Easter was on the same date - April 8th. It also happened to be the same April 8th Easter that Preston was taking me on a special Easter Egg hunt that led me to Bubba the Monkey.

Meet Bubba

You can't tell from the picture, but Bubba had a special message for me. It goes something like this (well, not something, it is exactly like this):

"Roses are red,
violets are blue,
but I couldn't imagine eternity
with anybody but you.

Will you marry me, Angie?"

To which a kneeling Preston responded "you'd be marrying me not the monkey." Haha.

Good times.

Good memories.

Good decisions.

I said yes.

Now here we are, 5 years later with a beautiful family to celebrate Easter with. I wouldn't want it any other way.

HAPPY EASTER!!

You are a great couple and have a darling family. Fun to see Bubba and hear the details of the engagement again! It really doesn't seem like 5 years ago.
