One of my favorites

When Stephen and I had our wedding reception, we didn't have dancing and, therefore, didn't have a first dance... At least not that night :)
One evening while we were unpacking and organizing our apartment that first week of our marriage, we were listening to Stephen's iPod and he came in the living room where I was and asked me to stand up. He then put his arms around me and we started to slow dance, right there in the middle of all our boxes and belongings, with everything in disarray. The song playing was "Only the Ocean" by Jack Johnson (and if you look up and listen to that song you'll realize just how perfect this moment was). At that moment nothing mattered but the fact that we belonged to each other and we were going to have moments like this one for the rest of eternity. I don't regret not having an official first dance at my wedding, because I did get one and it was exactly the way I would have wanted it: just him and me :)
