this picture says it all. Mr. Tim Dwyer and I said our "I Do's"
2 days after Christmas of 2002 in a beautifully candlelit ceremony
in front of roughly 400 guests or more.
I had fallen madly in love with this man, no joke over a series
of letters/correspondence. A 3 ring binder that now holds a paper copy of nearly every email writing to one another could pass for a large novel in bookstores. It is through those writings that we corresponded while he was finishing his college degree up in Nebraska and I worked and finished school in St. Louis that we really got to the core of who we were. Our first date was over Thanksgiving weekend and we went out a handful of times when he was in town. By the time he had graduated in May, we spent about a month of face to face time together before we figured out this would be much better in person than continuing on paper! A July 5th proposal and then a December 27th wedding. We were ecstatic and couldn't wait to begin our lives as married pen pals.
