Our 1 year anniversary is this upcoming Sunday and since we are heading to Boston to celebrate, I wanted to write a special post to Billy.

Dear Billy,

We are almost 8 years into dating and 1 year of being a married couple. That is amazing! I can honestly say I'm so happy and pleased with myself that I stalked you that first year I met you...no matter how much shit I've got about it over the years. I knew exactly what I wanted; and that was you. You are finally off the market and I couldn't be more thankful to have you as my husband. You are my rock, my best friend, my love, and my other half. I'm still just as much as in love with you as I was the night I first met you and you were wearing your grandpa's 'Viper' jacket and had red Timbalands on to match {ew}. I know that at times I can forget to say "thank you" everytime I should, or to let you know how thankful I am for you, but I really am.

I hope this helps to show you that I am.

You are my world.

xo.

Katie
