Our Wedding Song


Photo by Kimberly Teichrow
My husband is amazing. This is a known fact. He is the nicest, wholehearted, honest person I have ever met. This Christmas was just one example of his thoughtfulness. I have always wanted the lyrics to our first dance at our wedding to be displayed somewhere in our bedroom.  We danced to the song "Magic" by Colbie Caillat (listen to the song here). We have been married for 4 years now and I had yet to create something. This year for Christmas, my husband took that idea and gave me a huge surprise. He created this amazing sign that now hangs above our bed.

Now back to the sign....



Here are a few snapshots of the process (he captured these on his phone as he snuck away for a few hours each day to work on this amazing surprise)...
