they're playing our song...

For today's WW
I'm going to reveal just a bit
(part 1)
of my project



Always and Forever





Always and Forever



Each moment with you

Is just like a dream to me
That somehow came true


And I know tomorrow
Will still be the same
Cause we've got a life of love

That won't ever change and..



Every day

Love me your own special way


Melt all my heart away


With a smile



Take time to tell me


You really care


And we'll share tomorrow together


I'll always love you Forever





There'll always be sunshine


When I look at you


It's something I can't explain


Just the things that you do





And if you get lonely


Phone me and take


A
second to give to me


That magic you make and..





Every day


Love me your own special way



Melt all my heart away


With a smile


Take time to tell me


You really care

And we'll share tomorrow together



I'll always love you


Forever





This was *our* song.

(Do you remember it?)



It (always and forever) is engraved

on my husband's wedding ring.




It is how he signs notes to me.




I'm thinkin'
about having my 13 yr.old
send it to DH's phone for my ringtone
(I am phone-challenged...can't do that myself:)


I wanted it to be part of my *project*




I ordered this banner
from Madai The Wren's Nest...
Isn't it pretty?





thanks again for everything...you're swell...

for bleeding.
Tomorrow (wed) is DH's dr's appt.
He's nervous...that says a lot
He's never nervous!

Hi Rene...your posting is beautiful! I, too, had my husband's ring engraved...we switched it a bit, "Forever and Always." And, yes, he signs his cards to me "F & A." Aren't we the luckiest women?!

Dear Rene`,
I love this beautiful post! Yes, I remember that song, it was always a favorite of mine. How romantic always and forever is engraved in your wedding rings and your dear hubby signs his notes to you that way. I love the decorating you have done. Your vignettes are so romantic! I love the ALWAYS banner from precious Madai. I have a couple of her beautiful banners and enjoy them so much! I am praying for your daughter and hubby!
Love, Paula
