Two years ago today I married my best friend. The best thing that ever happened to me was marrying Joseph Christian Beck for time and all eternity in the Logan LDS Temple on August 15, 2006! Reminiscing about that day, a few things that I remember about that day is when we got to the sealing room, I had his ring with a tissue strung through it on one of my fingers. While the sealer was chatting with us, Joe reached over and grabbed my hand. Apparently I had been fidgeting with the ring and tissue, turning the tissue into confetti. Joe had a huge smile on his face and tears in his eyes as we kneeled across the alter from each other (there's no need to explain what I was doing--if only I had that darn tissue). It was if everyone had melted away and it was only the two of us. The family dinner and reception are kind of a blur. I do remember getting booed when we fed each other a piece of our cake. Needless to say, people were cheering as I stuffed cake into his face and up his nose! Joe, ever the romantic, hired a horse and carriage to take us away. What a romantic way to end an unforgettable day.

Happy anniversary baby! I love you heart, mind, body and soul.
