After five years of dating, M and I eloped! We had been discussing it for a while and knew that a big wedding was not the way to go for us. Not my style. Fortunately, not M's style, either. So we told our family to meet us at a beautiful chapel in Austin on a sunny fall afternoon. We exchanged vows in front of our parents, siblings, nieces and nephews. It was perfect.Granted, they were absolutely shocked when we told them they were invited to our elopement. The rest of our family/friends were equally shocked when we informed them (mostly via text-message and Facebook after the ceremony) that we had tied the knot! But they were all excited and happy for us.
As for M and I, we are excited about our life together and we're starting a family. Our son is due in June 2011! M truly is the love of my life and I am eternally grateful that I was blessed with him. There simply are not many men like him and I'm blissfully happy knowing that he's mine and the father of my child.
