Seven years ago today I married my beautiful wife Amy on a sunny day in St. Marys, PA. Seems like we were just kids back then. Even though we were [Totally] in love, it’s sometimes hard to believe that she went for it when I popped the [Question] considering I think it was a [Pretty Pathetic] attempt. Still, we had been a couple since 1998 and I hadn’t actually been [Chasing Amy] for many years. Anyhow, on our wedding day, when I saw that [Punk Rock Girl] in her wedding dress, I instantly knew she was my [Mrs. Perfect Girl]. That might be a stretch because I knew long before that that she was the one for me. At the wedding reception, my brother gave [A Toast To The Happy Couple] and then probably told the bartender, “[Pass Me A Straub].” I know I did. We did our fair share of [Slow Dancing] but I also remember hearing the [Click, Click, Click, Click] of the [Kamera] quite a bit that day as we took a cart ride around the golf course and were driven around town for photos.

Since then, not everything has been perfect, but every day with Amy as my wife is [Just Another Day In Paradise]. Sure, we’ve both gotten older and heard [The Sound Of Settling] and I know I’ve had to say [Don’t Hate Me] a few times, but we’ve made it this far. Many of our friends have been getting married and having kids as well so it seems that [Happiness Is All The Rage]. Speaking of kids, Amy and I now have two lovely daughters, Hailey (who is almost 4) and Teagan (who is barely a month old). Including Amy, I affectionately call the three of them my [Punk Rock Girls]. I think it’s cute.

So even after all this time has passed, I still want to scream from the [Rooftops] just how much I love this woman. I still [Want] her and love waking up next to her kissing her [Clavicle]. It might sound cheesy, but I still want to find a good way to tell her, “[All I Need Is You].” I think this mix might do the trick.
