Seventeen years ago today...
This makes me feel old. And while it might be fun to be 19 (yes, I got married as a teenager!) again, I think we've improved with age...
Nice to meet you

The happiest of anniversary wishes to you and Toben, Joanne. From gorgeous bride to gorgeous mom and wife.
Did we have the same dress? Looks pretty Princess Di-esque to me. :)

How cute are you? I love the picture of the two of you with you in the black dress and you with braids. I don't know if I would be so brave to post old pics. Happy Anniversary!

Congrats-and here's to many more!
God Bless your marriage!!!

Best Wishes to you Joanne.
I hope and pray that God continues to shower his blesings on you and your family.
I love your wedding picture. I think I could see the innocence of a 19yr old.
Warm Regards,
