Ahhh, love.
Four years ago today I was capturing on film one of my oldest friends and one of my newest friends legally joining alliances. It was epic. I still get goose bumps whenever I hear their song:
The One
I saw you dancing out the ocean
Running fast along the sand
A spirit born of earth and water
Fire flying from your hands
In the instant that you love someone
In the second that the hammer hits
Reality runs up your spine
And the pieces finally fit
And all I ever needed was the one
Like freedom fields where wild horses run
When stars collide like you and I
No shadows block the sun
You're all I've ever needed
Baby you're the one
-Elton John
Happy Anniversary EM & M! Here's to 4 more lifetimes together.

Happy, Happy Anniversary Em & Mel! Here's to MANY MORE happy years! xoxo
At first when I saw a song titled One, I initially thought of Metallica. But the these lyrics didn't seem too happy for an anniversary:
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please god, wake me
Now the world is gone I'm just one
Oh god, help me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please god, help me
Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell
Good choice not going with that one. And Happy Anniversary.
Happy Anniversary! Your friends and pictures of them are beautiful!!
And I also love the fact that she's 6 inches taller than her hubby! :)
Melissa took the words right out of my mouth. Any man who has no problem marrying a woman who's taller than he is (or who makes more money, or who can press more weight, etc.) is alright by me.
Happy 4th, Em 'n M!
@Spammon: You have a real future in the greeting card industry.
@Melissa & Astrogirl: Em is 6'1", so she's pretty much taller than nearly everyone around her.
I got the chills, too. I'm also feverish and have the flu, but I think they were new chills. Anyway, you are a great friend to remember your friends' anniversaries.
jules - If I did do greeting cards, they would most likely have zero writing on them and just be a folded piece of scrap paper. I guess maybe I could throw in a Happy __________ on the front to make it universal.
