Huckleberries

I was looking through some files on our computer from back when Jonathan and I were dating and when we were first married and I found this.

He gave it to me for our first Valentine's Day after we got married. He sent it to my work along with a gorgeous bouquet of pink lilies! It was the sweetest thing ever!! I absolutely loved it and thought I would share!

He changed the words to the song 'Huckleberry' by Toby Keith so that they fit with our life together!

The first verse is about the day we met!
The second verse is about Jon's first summer with Pinnacle!
The third verse is about our wedding day!
The chorus was changed from 'maraschino cherry' to 'ripe red raspberry' because raspberries are my favorite!

Gosh I love my man!!

HUCKLEBERRY

Just at an old square dance without hoping for a spark
Was a bright eyed beauty with a smile to charm a lark
Being in her presence was sublime
He said, "Hey you know, I like to ice skate, come with me sometime?"

Baby I'll be your Huckleberry, you don't have to double dare me
If the world gets wild and scary count on me to be right there
You're so extraordinary, sweet like a ripe red raspberry
We'll grow up and we'll get married
I'm gonna be your Huckleberry
Mmmmmm

Later on that summer he had to leave her all alone
Decided he would make some money then hurry on back home
She was so brave when he drove out of view
She said, "I would drive 500 miles just to spend the day with you"

Baby I'll be your Huckleberry, you don't have to double dare me
If the world gets wild and scary count on me to be right there
You're so extraordinary, sweet like a ripe red raspberry
We'll grow up and we'll get married
I'm gonna be your Huckleberry
Mmmmmm

Snuck off finally after the best day they'd ever had
She looked so pretty in her white dress, her smile made him glad
So happy in his heart that he could fly
She said, "Baby you know I'm yours forever, I'll love you til I die"

Baby I'll be your Huckleberry, you don't have to double dare me
If the world gets wild and scary count on me to be right there
You're so extraordinary, sweet like a ripe red raspberry
We grew up and we got married
Forever your own Huckleberry
Mmmmmm


I hope you all have a great Independence Day!!!
