2 - to my ♥

One year ago, on August 19, 2009, Kasey popped the question and I said yes. Thus began our adventure as an engaged couple. As I look at how far we've come (and how far we have to go) I wanted to take a moment to share my heart with my best friend and the love of my life.

To my love,

As we celebrated a milestone in our relationship today, I just wanted to take a moment to stop and thank you for a year filled with happiness and more love than I could have ever dreamed. When God placed you in my life, I had no idea what He had in store for the future. I love looking back on our year spent together as an engaged couple and remembering all our crazy, outlandish, funny, amazing, and unforgettable time spent together. Your laid-back, care-free personality keeps me sane and helps me focus on the things in life that really matter. Your kind, giving, and selfless heart for serving others has brought me so much joy and happiness and I have been blessed many times by your servant's heart. Your love for me has overwhelmed me and made me realize just how incredibly blessed I am to have a soon-to-be husband that loves and honors me above all else. And most importantly, Your love and passion for the Lord has led me and guided me through hardships and tears. It has changed my heart and my perspective on many things and led me through the storms of life when I couldn't do it alone. I am so proud of the man that have been and continue to be as we prepare for our adventure as husband and wife. I cannot imagine doing this with anyone else but you and I am honored, grateful, blessed, and so excited that I get to spend the rest of my life, hand-in-hand, side-by-side with such an amazing Godly man. I know that your arms will protect me, your heart will guide me, and your love will carry me, forever and always.

All my love, 
Katie 

1 - blessed beyond measure.

Only 5 months to go until our adventure as husband and wife begins! And looking back, I can hardly believe that it's almost been a year since that unforgettable August night that I said "Yes." I can still see his face as he got down on one knee and told me that He wanted to spend the rest of his life with me. Then he placed that shiny little ring on my finger and the past 11 months and 25 days have been nothing short of an incredible adventure with my best friend and the love of my life. The days have been filled with blessings, hardships, tears, laughter, lessons learned and memories that I'll cherish forever! God has taken us through valleys and over mountains. He has given us storms and sunny days. And looking back, I wouldn't change a thing! God has most certainty blessed me more than I ever deserve! He has placed in my life an incredible Godly man who has stuck by my side through thick and thin, loves me more than I deserve, and has led me to a whole new level in my relationship with my Heavenly Father.  I am so looking forward to the day that our adventure as Mr. & Mrs. Kasey Horvath begins!
