A Beautiful Vue: Our Song

Today or maybe yesterday depending on how fast I get this post out, J & I had our ninth wedding anniversary! We're going to celebrate this weekend, but he did do something really special for me. He had one of our best friends, who is a very talented artist, paint the lyrics of our wedding song. Check it out...




Our friend, Jessica, painted these pieces and did a great job. Some of the words have flecks of gold shimmer to them and the colors are exactly what I would've picked out. I just love these pieces! She is so talented. I am always amazed at what she can do. She has a really great blog, TechnaChroma, where she writes about all the projects she is working on, the different artists who inspire her and pictures of it all from murals she's painted to individual pieces you can even purchase. Check her out here!


The lyrics are from the song, The One, by Skillet. We listened to a lot of Skillet through our dating years...I don't think in J's mind we were ever dating though. He says he knew from early on that I was the right person, so I guess he was just biding his time waiting on me to catch up. It took me a little longer to know. So anyway this song was the song I walked down the aisle to at our wedding. We knew from the first time we heard it that it would be our wedding song...it didn't take me long with that decision. Anyway, I think he did great job with this one. I know he put a lot of thought into it and it means something to him,too. Whenever we look at these paintings it will remind us of our beginnings and the story of US. But best of all that our story has got many many years to add to it...I'm thinking at least 50 or 60 more! Thank you Jody. I love you & Happy Anniversary!
