<p><em>We have gathered together those important in my life <br/>To celebrate the day Josh made me his wife<br/>How fondly I recall the 24th of September<br/>It was a day, I for one, will always remember</em></p>
<p><em>Picture the two of us, we were a site to see<br/>Me in the Air Force and him in the Army<br/>I was stationed in New Mexico as most of you know<br/>He was in Georgia and I just had to go</em></p>
<p><em>I missed him so much that I could nearly have cried<br/>Next thing that I knew, I was there by his side<br/>Being that we hail from the Lone Star State<br/>We were off to Texas Roadhouse and just couldn’t wait</em></p>
<p><em>Reservations were made, a table wouldn’t be chancy<br/>This from the man who thinks Olive Garden’s too fancy<br/>The waitresses were sweet which was no abnormality<br/>I just chalked it off to that southern hospitality</em></p>
<p><em>All throughout dinner I thought “Oh, what a prize”<br/>As we sat across from each other making lovey dovey eyes<br/>When we finished our drinks, we were as happy as could be<br/>As he took my hand and said how much he loved me</em></p>
<p><em>Then down on one knee my dear beloved went<br/>Of course there were peanut shells on his knee that was bent<br/>His eyes they were shining, that’s all I could see <br/>Then I heard those four words “Will you marry me?”</em></p>
<p><em>He pulled out a ring and placed it onto my finger<br/>And looked in my eyes as he let the words linger<br/>My face turned bright red, I have to confess<br/>I hugged him and cried and of course I said yes</em></p>
<p><em>The cheers and the smiles came from all who were near<br/>As the waitresses announced it for everyone to hear<br/>Later at the car we put on our song <br/>And danced to “Bless the Broken Road” the whole night long</em></p>
<p><em>It was the perfect night there under the stars<br/>I never felt anything like the love that was ours<br/>The very next day we truly felt blessed<br/>In our button up shirts and jeans we were dressed</em></p>
<p><em>If he had his way, a ball cap he’d choose<br/>As we headed off to the courthouse to say our “I dos”<br/>We are so very different of that there’s no doubt<br/>Everything rolls off his back while I often stress out</em></p>
<p><em>He’s tough and outgoing and I tend to be quiet as such<br/>He’s very competitive, and me, not so much<br/>But we make a great couple and that’s what it’s about<br/>After years together we balance each other out</em></p>
<p><em>And that’s the whole story, told as best as I could<br/>Of how we became Mr. and Mrs. Osgood<br/>Having you all here is the best gift I can think of<br/>Thank you so much for coming and celebrating our love</em></p>
