A Year Ago Today...

A year ago today my dad decided to give me one of the biggest scares of my life- he had a heart attack 20 days before my wedding. I knew how important walking me down the aisle meant to my dad, so to see him laying in ICU just a few weeks before my wedding was a very scary.  You can read about the whole ordeal here.

However, he wasn't going to miss my wedding, so he bounced back very quickly and was home in less than a week after first going into the hospital.  Heck, he was feeling so good by the time my wedding came around that he was whipping me around that dance floor. At one point I even had to tell him to slow down because I was getting dizzy.

My dad said something over the weekend about that how it's been an year since his heart attack. The ironic thing is that he had said that right before him and my mom where going to head out for a walk- and that's what they were doing last year when he had the heart attack.

I know that I'm a luck girl that my dad and many of the most important people in my life were around to share in my special day. Days like today remind me to be grateful for all the blessings that I have in my life. I have wonderful people in my life and I couldn't ask for anything more.
