Country Music Monday - I Cross My Heart

I took a trip down memory lane this weekend. I was reorganizing a closet that had a bunch of photo albums and random loose pictures in it.

It was a little sad when I saw how many BAD hair cuts I've had over the years, not to mention how many BAD dye jobs I've had!!

Anyway, I came across a picture that I forgot existed!! Yay!

For those of you that don't know, Eric, aka the husband, and I started dating in high school. Before that he had a crush on my for a few years. I mentioned our first dance a few posts back. Well, I have a treat for you today. Pictures, never before published, from our first dance.

Here's the husband.

And here I am with a girl friend.

I'm still the same height, Eric, on the other hand is now over a foot taller. This isn't quite where our love story began, but it still makes me laugh at how long we've been hanging around each other.

So, that leads me to the song for today, I Cross My Heart, by George Strait.



My brother-in-law sang this at our wedding. I love it.

Lyrics:
Our love is unconditional
We knew it from the start
I see it in your eyes
You can feel it from my heart
From here on after
Lets stay the way we are right now
And share all the love and laughter
That a life time will allow

I cross my heart and promise to
Give all I've got to give
To make all your dreams come true
In all the world you'll never find
A love as true as mine

You will always be the miracle
That makes my life complete
And as long as theres a breath in me
I'll make yours just as sweet
As we look into the future
It's as far as we can see
So lets make each tomorrow
Be the best that it can be


I cross my heart and promise to
Give all I've got to give
To make all your dreams come true
In all the world you'll never find
A love as true as mine

And if along the way we find a day
It starts to storm
You've got the promise of my love
To keep you warm

In all the world
You'll never find
A love as true as mine
A love as true as mine
