10th love


I have done one craft. ONE. I made it up, and I love it. I took the sheet music to the song that was playing while Lincoln proposed to me, and aged it. What did I age it with you ask? My make up (Bare minerals at the time) and a little paint too. How clever. I used Mod Podge to glue it on, and I used ribbon to cover the staples on the edges of the canvas. Then I hung them up in a very crooked way above my bed. I always meant to rehang them. The song is From Here to Eternity, by Michael Peterson.

I did everything I could to get you here tonight
Without telling you why
Now girl if you only would, please hold out your hand
Just close your eyes
I've been dying to ask you one burning question
Will you be mine?

From here to eternity
I'm asking you to share your life with me
Now and forever I guarantee, I'll always stay by your side
I promise my love to you
I'm willing and able and ready to
Whatever you need
I am here for you, and I'll always be
From here to eternity

I saved a year for this ring
I can't wait to see
How it looks on your hand
I'll give you everything that one woman needs
From a one woman man
I'll be strong I'll be tender a man of my word
I will be yours.

From here to eternity
I'm asking you to share your life with me
Now and forever I guarantee, I'll always stay by your side
I promise my love to you
I'm willing and able and ready to
Whatever you need
I am here for you, and I'll always be
From here to eternity

I love that idea! I have to tell you we think on a VERY similar wave length sometime, I have to call you and tell you a funny story about this...but until then, thanks for your comment tonight, and your help finding the lense! We got exactly what you said and I've loved it! Although, I'm still learning and my pictures are a bit dark. I love your Valentines theme too! It's always such fun to read your blog.

Have a great night!

I've always thought this was such a clever idea. Good job keeping up with your photos through the moving craziness.
