I married the love of my life, my amazing wife Ashley:
It has been a wonderful ten years since we met at Cannon Air Force Base in 2001. We've lived in the same town but dated different people, lived 10 hours away from each other and only dated each other, been separated for months when I was deployed to Kuwait and Iraq, and when she was travelling for work, lived in England and Korea, and visited places like Russia:
China:
and New Zealand together:
We've seen at least 125 cities in more than 25 countries across six continents. It's amazing how lucky we've been to have such wonderful experiences, but what's even more amazing is how lucky I am to have had her by my side throughout. She's the most amazing woman I've ever met. There literally is NOTHING wrong with her. She's gorgeous, brilliant (the only engineer I know who's passed the bar, has her private pilot's license (even if it's expired), and has a degree in international relations), shares the same taste as me in movies, music, books, and vacation destinations, has an amazing sense of humor that keeps us laughing together all the same (Ask me if I'm a tree...), and is the most giving, caring, thoughtful person I know.
When we travel, the first thing she thinks of is souvenirs to buy for others...I'm usually looking for the local brand of alcohol. When I want to plan another trip or put money in savings, she suggests giving to charity. She makes me stay home to watch football and basketball games, and has more passion for sports that most guys I know.
I love her more than anything in the world, and I'm the luckiest person I know to be able to claim her as my wife, and I want everyone to know it. So baby, here's to you, the best thing to ever happen to me. I love you dearly, miss you terribly, and cannot wait to hold you in my arms again...

Well said. Congratulations on your anniversary.
