The One With All Those Wedding Dresses

Oh my sister, my bride...it was ten years ago this week.
Thursday evening, April 16th, 1998 to be exact.
LoneStar steakhouse was the site of our very first official date. We had known each other for more than year and had done many things together through our church work and even just for fun but never as an actual date. Who knew then what that date would lead to? Perhaps we should have, or at least you should have, and maybe you did?
That night at the restaurant, my back was to the bar part of the restaurant but you were facing it. From your seat at the table you could see the televisions above the bar and as you have admitted, you were actually watching Friends as it came on those TVs at 7pm that night. I looked it up on IMDB. The episode that aired that night was Season 4: Episode 20 entitled "The One With All Those Wedding Dresses" in which the three main female characters in the show all wear Wedding Dresses to cheer up Rachel, depressed that Ross and Emily are soon to be married.
What an interesting foreshadowing of where this date would lead. It was the ONE with the wedding dress in the end. Your wedding dress. You are as beautiful today as you were on that evening, on our wedding day, on every day since. I love you and am forever blessed that you said yes to the date, and yes to me forever.
