Gettin' Hitched

One or two of you may have heard by now that Dallas and I got married this past Saturday. And I'm sure it came as a shock to everyone as evidenced by the long pauses and slow reactions to the news. However, you have all been great and we appreciate that more than you know!

It's not that we just didn't want anyone there... It's more that we just wanted it to be about us. It's such a personal decision and promise to make we didn't want to get caught up in the drama of other people's schedules or preferences or opinions. Thanks for understanding.

We found this great little B&B down in Eureka Springs, AR who took care of all the details. All we had to do was pick a date and show up. The rest was taken care of and we couldn't have been more pleased.

I remember Mom telling me once when I was young that I'll just know when it's right. She said she couldn't explain it, but that I would know. And I do. And I can't explain it either.

All I know is that I love Dallas more than anything in this world. I trust him. I'm proud of him. I just feel better when he's around me. I feel more like myself when I'm with him. I know I'm well taken care of. He makes me feel safe. He encourages me. He uplifts me. He puts me first. He makes me laugh! All I want is a life with him. I finally feel like I'm where I'm supposed to be. I now know what it feels like to be "home". And even though it's official, and I'm a McCarter now, I still can't believe my good fortune. It still seems surreal and too good to be true. I get a little thrill every time I see the ring I gave him on his hand. I'm so proud to call him husband... so honored to be his wife.

I just wanted to thank everyone for supporting us and reminding us that all that matters is that we're happy. Because we are...
