Yesterday Mike and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary! It is so hard to believe how quickly time has gone by. I can remember the events of our wedding so clearly, it can't have already have been a year. But it has been, and its been wonderful. We've been so blessed this past year. Lets do a quick recap:
-Visited my family for Thanksgiving, Christmas and my Brothers endowments
-Got our first pet, Epps.
-I completed my final year of school online
-Went on trips to Boston, Salem,Mystic and Newport
-Mastered NYC and its subway system (well almost ;)
-Seen 4 shows on Broadway
-Have my parents/sister, mikes parents/ Aunt and cousin's visit us.
-Visited Utah for New Years
-Experienced the death of a loved one
-Made great life long friends
-I learned about/how to follow the stock market
-Went on our First Disney Vacation
-Feel deeper in love than the year before.
So for our anniversary Mikes gift to me was his time. A precious commodity these days. He planned out what we were going to have for dinner (my least favorite thing to do,) did the shopping, made the dinner (he wouldn't even let me into the kitchen to attempt to help,) then cleaned up everything after. It was fantastic. I felt kinda lame because I just got him some wii accessories I thought he'd like. Since my mom pitched the top layer of our wedding cake we bough a fresh red velvet/cream cheese cake (what our top layer was.) That evening I made cupcakes and some of our friends came over to help us celebrate. It was a great day! Now it is time to reminisce a bit with some of my favorite wedding pictures!
