Mr. and Mrs.

Presenting Mr. and Mrs. Kaleb Wilson


These exact words were said a week ago as Kaleb and I became husband and wife in the presence of God, our families, and friends. It was honestly the most enchanting day of my entire life. It was a day filled with more mixed emotion than I had ever experienced in one day. Not only was I marrying my best friend, I was having the wedding of my dreams, and was being given away by the man that will always be my first love. 

I remember standing in the church parlor trying to catch my breathe as I patiently waited with my daddy by my side to walk down the aisle to the man that would give me the moon if he could. Tears swelled in my eyes knowing that this would be the last walk I would take as a Heronimus, and the next strides I would took would be as a Wilson. I longed to be a Wilson, but my heart broke to give up a name that will always mean the world to me. The music began, and the butterflies filled my stomach. I took one last look at my daddy with tears in his eyes, and we started the most important walk of my life. 

This was the face I saw while walking towards the love of my life. I felt as though I was floating to him, I can honestly say that I do not remember much after this face. It was as though I was lost in a love filled daze. This man here, worked so incredible hard to stand and walk, not for himself but for me. He knew that my heart desired a "normal" wedding and he fought so hard for it! He gave me the world that day, just by standing there. His tears were tears of love, love for me! That feeling alone still brings tears to my eyes. To know he so deeply loves me, he loves me enough for giant tears to come down his face, he loves me and that is all that matters. 

The moments following were perfect! The sermon was not only about marriage, but miracles, and sacrifice. All are things that we have experienced, and were so excited to share with our friends. Our vows, I can't even describe the feeling I felt when exchanging our vows! We have been through so much, and we know that this isn't it, but when we said FOR BETTER OF FOR WORSE, IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH. My heart sang with joy, knowing that this is what God has planned for us and I was committing myself to him forever!  I am his, and he is mine. The unity, the music, the prayers, and the blessing that all went into it were so perfect! I can't imagine a more perfect day with my best friends, while marrying my best friend! 

The first dance...
I am sure there wasn't a dry eye in that room, including ours! He gave me a moment that I so desperately wanted, and yet had tried to come to terms with not having. He spun me around and made me feel like I was a princess, and I am, I am his princess! I still cry when I watch the video of us dancing together while standing. It was enchanting, magical, and a blessing from our God. 


Father & Daughter Dance...

More tears! I had looked forward to this dance since I was five. We knew what song we were going to dance to, and we knew how to flow together. It was a moment that I couldn't wait to share with my daddy, and I will forever cherish it so so close to my heart! It was as though I was a little girl dancing around on my daddy's feet, but we were dancing the most important dance we could share together. 
This man has loved me more than I can ever imagine, even when I'm sure I made it very very hard! He is my first love, and I will ALWAYS be my daddy's little girl! 

She is My Best Friend... 
This day was a day that I had imagined since I was a very little girl! I had been a bride for countless Halloweens, and was in love with Disney love stories. I was a hopeless romantic from the beginning, but I had learned from the best! My momma taught me to love, she taught me love the Lord with all my heart, to love myself before I ever loved a man, and to love with passion and purpose when the time came to marry. She has defended me when it felt like the entire world was against me, and she would do it again in a heartbeat. She has been my rock, and my shoulder to cry on. And though my daddy was who gave me away, I knew she was sitting right there in the audience longing to hold on but knowing she had to let go. 

It Was a Fairytale... 
but it didn't end at midnight. It was the beginning of our happily ever after!

Now just wait until I get all of our photos, fair warning this will not be the only blog reflecting over our wedding. I am extremely attached!!!

My Love, 
Brittany Marie Wilson

Top 10 Tips for Flying with an Infant

Last week we spent the entire week in Cincinnati for the national veterans wheelchair games, which was probably one of the most incredible experiences of my life, but we will save that for a different post. We met great people, had wonderful conversation, and took our sweet girl on her first airplane ride. Being the crazy mom that I am, I stressed about the plane ride for far to long and made way to many mental notes on how to survive it. I asked everyone who had ever flown with a child what to do and received some great advice. My goal is to break it down into the top 10 things you "need" in order to survive flying with a baby! 1. Plastic Bags are Your Friend Prior to heading out to the airport I separated Ellie's diaper back with gallon size baggies. I had all her diapers and wipes packed in one, toys in another, and food in it's own. It made fast diaper changes before take off a breeze, as well as finding snacks in the air. Everything had its place an...

Nine Months

        My Sweet Eloise Jeanne, Month nine has come and gone and mama has been the worst at putting this together. Has with every month this one has been equally busy and equally different. I find myself smelling your sweet baby scent as it becomes fainter. I hold you nightly after you have fallen asleep staring at your sweet tiny face. This month I feel that we said goodbye to my baby baby and began welcoming our soon to be toddler. Your personality has come out in force, you know what you want and will do whatever it takes to get it. You are determined and strong willed, both qualities that I know will take you far in the future. I miss my baby baby but love playing with my new toddler girl. This month was a huge month for mobility. We went from not really being able to move at all to moving constantly. On July 25th you began trying to army crawl and can successfully get yourself from one place to another. On Friday,...

Eleven Months

Hello Eloise Jeanne,  Can you believe it, you are eleven months old. This month was different than the others because I knew exactly what we were doing a year ago. I remember celebrating you with our church family back home, I remember making the long drive to Albuquerque for the Balloon Fiesta and celebrating you at Aunt Becca's shower. I remember feeling as though I couldn't get any bigger and then I did. I remember counting each of your kicks to make sure you were growing just right. You were my best friend long before I met you and you captured my wold long before the world greeted you.  This month you seemed to truly embrace that crazy toddler side and nothing can stop our speed crawler. You know exactly where the dog food is and love to play in Chuck's water, chuck does not find it quite as amusing. You are love to smile, you are constantly smiling and waving at anyone and everyone. You figured out how to wave, the sweet little precious wave whe...
