May 6th, 2010 marks the 1,460th day of wedded bliss!

Every May 6th, my heart beats a wee bit faster, I smile a wee bit bigger and I walk with more spring in my step. It was the day I become not just Steph Corker any longer, but Steph Corker Irwin….forever. It was the start of my journey to learn how just how much of a basket case I really am and how grateful I am that Mr. Irwin chose to marry me!

Once a Firefightah; Forever My Firefightah!

He reminds me that I’m crazy, and that’s okay. He stands by my wacky ideas and entrepreneurial pursuits, and believes in the dream with me. He doesn’t sweat the petty stuff and stands for the good stuff. He knows it’s not always easy, but he makes me always feel worth it. I love this guy!

What I also love is that we were surrounded by our amazing families and killer friends on May 6th, 2006. Family members that might be spread across the country, but are forever near and dear to us both. And Friends who now have new babies and bigger houses and amazing degrees/professions…but who still remain our most cherished circle of friends. We love these peeps!

Best Wedding Party, ever. (L-R: Mr.Amazing, Nurse, Doctor, TeamFab, New Dad, Martha Stewart, Recruiter - WOOT!)

And ohhh-soo-appropriately, we were at a wonderful wedding on Saturday night (the night before the Vancouver Marathon), and saw OUR wedding photographers shooting the beautiful bride and groom! 4 years later, their part-time hobbie is now their full-time livin’ dream…they are blissed out, full of all kinds of killer energy and truly rockin’ their new career! Talk about the perfect reminder of following your heart.

Dreams come true. XO!
