So as many of you know I surprised my wife and planned out an entire renewal of our vows for our 10 year anniversary. I promised her the day that we got married 10 years ago that one day we would have a real wedding when we were better off financially. Well to be honest that time came a long time ago. The only thing holding me back was my weight. It was one of my top reasons to getting my weight off on top of health, family, and self esteem.  I promised her something and wanted to make sure it came true. So I lost the weight "plus some LOL" and planned out this entire day on my own.

This past Saturday was the day my wife finally got to get all dressed up, and walk down an aisle. Just knowing that I was able to give her this day felt awesome, but also my journey to get here felt just as awesome. I was waiting at the end being looked at by friends and family without a worry in the world that the attention was on us and pictures were being taken left and right. It's really weird how much has changed in the past year.

Before I put you all to sleep with my ramblings I figured I would post of a bunch of pictures :)
