Sixteen years ago today April 29th 1994 I woke up at 4:00 am got my hair done, put my makeup on, put on a new pretty dress, then opened the front door at 5:45 am and wanted to cry. Why you ask, well it was my wedding day and it was raining! My love Lynn took my hand and the umbrella from my dad who told me in a soft voice don't worry honey it will all work out. Lynn got me into his car without a drop of rain on my head. I will never forget the wet ride to the Salt Lake Temple not much was said between Lynn and I, our nerves said enough for both of us. Yes, I was happy and couldn't wait to marry such a great man, but I was a little nervous about the beginning of the rest of my life. I'm just glad that I married my best friend, the one person who still to this day knows everything that is good and bad about me and still loves me. Well after we were married at 7:10 in the morning Lynn and I walked out to the sun peeking through the clouds. The temple grounds all green and the flowers fresh it was so beautiful, and next to giving birth to our five children one of my favorite days. I'm so glad that I get to share my eternal life with such a caring, loving, spiritual man. You know he loves to come home to me and tell me about life, we still love to talk to each other and after so many years you would think we couldn't have much new to talk about, but we do so much in fact that sometimes there is not enough time in the day for me to talk his ears off. And believe me there are those days I can't shut up!! But he still loves me, with all my faults, yes I know it is hard news to here for some of you but I do have faults. Together these past 16 years Lynn and I have had our ups and downs. We had five beautiful children and we have manged to rise them to be strong, and very smart individuals who can think for themselves. We are rising a special needs child together with all the heart ache, sacrifices, and love that come with such a blessing. We have gone through school and 2 degrees. Buying and selling homes, cars, and many other things. We have not gone through a yard sale and I hope we never will, I don't like them. Our thoughts and the way we think is so much a like it's scary sometimes. But in the end I love it, I love being Lynn Squire's wife, I love begin called Mrs. or Sister Squire. I fell head over heels for Lynn the first day I saw him on my first day of work. I fell hard and fast, you know I am still head over heels and my heart jumps still when I see him or get a note or just by doing his laundry. So here is to so many years ahead that I can't count them!!! I love you Lynn
