AUGUST 3
JOE'S POV~
I woke up and kissed Dianne's forehead. I reluctantly got out of bed and made breakfast for her after feeding the twins. I left the breakfast on her bedside table and woke Tegan up with some food. I found the picture from when we announced our relationship and posted it with a similar caption.

One year later and she's still a million times more special. I love you @diannebuswell ❤️ (ps. Please change your username, it's been a year.😂)

DIANNE'S POV~
I woke up to discover that Joe wasn't by my side. "Joe." I called out. I turned to my side to find a breakfast laid out for me. "Joe, what the hell?" I said as he came in vlogging. He chuckled and handed me a letter as soon as I finished eating.

Dianne
A year ago today you gave me your hand in marriage. This past year has been the best one of my entire life. Thank you for everything you do for me. I love you. I may have only known you for the last 3 years but without you, I'd probably still be out drinking with my mates every night, acting like a little kid, but now I have kids of my own, and that's all down to you. These last few years with you by my side have been incredible and I couldn't imagine my life any different now. You're the woman of my dreams Dianne, I'm so glad I finally found you. Our lives have changed so, so much since this time last year but, I wouldn't change it for the world. I knew from the moment we met that we were destined to be together and here we are, three years and three kids later. I can't wait for this time next year Mrs Sugg. X
Also, pleaaaase change your Instagram username, it's driving me insane.

It was perfect. "I love you joe." I said, tears prickling the back of my eyes as I hugged him. Joe ran off to get Tegan and the twins and came back a minute later and placed them all onto our bed. 'I love my family.' I thought to myself as we all snuggled under the sheets. I wrapped my arms around Joe, our children inbetween us. I took the opportunity to snap a rare photo of the five of us and uploaded it to Instagram

We cuddled for a little while before Olivia started to cry. Joe took her from my arms and calmed her down whilst I took the others away from them.
We went downstairs where I found a massive bouquet of flowers waiting for me. "Oh my god Joe."  I exclaimed. He cuddled my arm and we carried the kids into the living room. "Here's a little something." I said after a while, handing Joe an envelope.

"WHAT THE FRICK DIANNE?" He shouted "ARE YOU INSANE?" I laughed at his excitement

"WHAT THE FRICK DIANNE?" He shouted "ARE YOU INSANE?" I laughed at his excitement.
"surprise!" I said in a hushed tone as not to disturb the twins.
"Why Dianne?" He asked a little calmer.
"Because we've never really been on holiday as a family have we?" I replied. "I mean, sure we've been to Australia, but that was to spend time with my family. We've never been on a holiday alone have we, just the 5 of us?" I said
"Dianne, Australia is amazing, it's where you're happiest." He replied.
"Not anymore," I said shaking my head "after everything that's happened this year, I'd much rather be spending time with you and the kids." I exclaimed.
"Thank you so much for this." Joe said.
"It's fine Joe. Besides, I've never been to Spain, it's gonna be amazing."
"You're crazy." He replied.
"I know." I laughed, kissing his cheek.

We didn't really do much else other than sit around as a family, watching films. I didn't mind however, as I was spending time with the people who mean the most to me.
"I can't believe this time last year I was walking down the aisle." I eventually piped up.
"You look just as gorgeous." He responded.
"Why thank you Joesph." I chuckled.
"Do you ever think about what would've happened if I'd said no to strictly?" He asked.
"Not really no, I wouldn't like to imagine it." I replied.
"Our lives have changed so much in the last year haven't they?" He reflected.
"Yeah." I said. "Well, I had two kids for a start." I laughed.
We spent a few minutes reminiscing before I fed the twins and put all three of our children to bed.

"I'm so lucky." Joe said once it was it was just the two of us.
"I am the luckiest." I replied, kissing his head.
"I love you." We said simultaneously, kissing each other when we'd finished.

I love you.
