Two Years ago Today...

As I sit here and reflect to get this post together, I smile. I smile because 2 wonderful years ago today I officially started to consider myself one of the luckiest girls in the whole wide world. 2 years ago today I walked down a marble aisle, draped with a red runner, the air was hot, but the backdrop was irreplaceable. 2 years ago today two became one in The Riviera Maya, Mexico. 2 years ago today I became part of a family that is so loving, so caring, so God fearing and so generous. 2 years ago today I married an absolutely amazing individual, He is smart, He is BOLD, He is strong, He provides, He is loyal, He is so handsome, He is funny, He is Matthew Cucuzza, He is My best friend... And Most of all HE LOVES me unconditionally. Matthew is the last piece to my "puzzle". Matthew and I have had our share of "hurdles" over the past two years, but I thank God for each and every obstacle that has been thrown our way, because with out each one of those trials I truly believe our relationship would not be where it is today.
It is not always easy, and we do work hard for what we have, but it is a job well worth it and I am blessed and truly honored to Be Mrs. Jessica Cucuzza. So we are taking this day to just enjoy eachother and share quiet moments and reflect upon what TODAY mean to us.
I am not only writing this to profess my absolute love and adoration for Matthew, but to also thank each and every one of our beloved friends and family that have guided, joined and celebrated with us over the past two years and many, many, many more years to come. Thank you to our Parents who made this all possible, because without them we would not be here today.
1 Corinthians 13:1-13
 If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away all my possessions, and if I hand over my body so that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end. For we know only in part, and we prophesy only in part; but when the complete comes, the partial will come to an end. When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became an adult, I put an end to childish ways. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known. And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.

Our Wedding

Spooktacular Birthday!

From Blogger Pictures

This weekends festivities went off without a hitch! All the planning and prep work was well worth it and I had a great time, and by some of the pictures that were snapped so did everyone else :)
I took the day off on Friday, went to the office with breakfast for Matthew and I and then went home and hit the ground running to decorate the entire downstairs of our house for our party, and prepped all the food for later that evening.
It was a busy, busy day but well worth it. We had quite a group and the costumes were greatly entertaining! We had not one, but TWO Barack Obama's, a Suicide bomber (nothing the 2 Barry O's couldn't handle, the peace was kept all evening and no one got hurt) Billy Mays graced us with his presence, Larry the cable guy, Joe Dirtae (Not to dress it up or anything) and his beloved girlfriend arrived looking trashy as ever, A prom King and his Queen came circa 1985, Raggedy Ann came looking not so raggedy at all and quite sassy, a preggo Nun, a Disco Diva, a Flapper, Roman God and Goddess, and throw a Love Bug in the mix.... WOW, what else you ask???? THE FLINSTONES!!! Yes, Fred and Wilma hosted the shindig! Dino took the night off (Sasha wasnt feeling Halloween this year). We held a contest for the Best costume... And the winner was.... Billy Mays! Lee Coverdale did a fantastic job represent the Late Infomercial Mogul and took home a $25 giftcertificate to El Ranchero! (which he promised to take me to eat on :) )
Saturday, we relaxed at the house all day and watched the Dawgs loose, so unfortunate, but predictable :/ and later that night we went over to the Floyd's to see Miss Hailey baby all dressed up in her costume! She went trick-or-treating for the first time and showed everyone in the neighborhood just how much of a sweet little Love Bug she was :) I love that child, she is such a joy!

Hailey's First Halloween

Sunday, My actual Birthday, was another LAZY day. I woke up to what appeared to look like Chirstmas in my living room, but it was all my presies from Matthew! I am such a lucky girl, he most definetly knows how to take care of me, and listens to every little thing I mention ;) He is soooo good! Unfortunately when I woke up I was not feeling too hot, so I laid around while Matthew did some straightening up of the house and baking of my Birthday cake. After a nice relaxing day (for me) we headed out to Maggiano's for dinner to seal the wonderful Birthday weekend off with an absolutely delish dinner!

Maggiano's Birthday Dinner

I can not put into words how much I appreciate everyone who came out to celebrate with me, and all of the Birthday wishes I received. It was an amazing weekend, not just one day, but the entire weekend was great!
27 will be a good year, and I thank you, thank you, thank you for getting it started off right, with lots of Love, laughs, great food and Fun!

Enjoy the pics ;)
