Happy 1st Anniversary to Us!

We celebrated our first wedding anniversary this past Sunday. My mom was really sweet and made a reservation at 45 Bistro downtown. It's the restaurant in the Marshall House. We were treated with a five-star, four course dinner consisting of crab encrusted fried green tomatoes (which I tried, and liked!) for our appetizer, then I had filet mignon and Noah had fish 'n' chips for our main course, and lastly for dessert we had my favorite, creme brulee! It was so nice of my mom to take care of us like that. Here is a picture of us that night.


I can't believe how fast a year has gone by. They say the first year is the hardest but I don't think that was true for us at all. I am always asked "how is married life?" but since Noah and I lived together for two years already before we got married, things didn't really change much. Well except that we call each other husband and wife. Noah is truly my best friend. I want to do everything and anything with him. It is the little things that give me comfort in my marriage with this man; like the good-bye kisses I feel in my sleep when he leaves for work in the morning, sitting on the couch reading my book while he's watching yet another sports program or getting into bed with him every night and him making sure I have just enough blanket. He is the one person that knows everything about me. I know this is super mushy and you want to puke, but all of these things are true. I look forward to having children with him and just growing old with him. I know we live in a scary time where divorce is always a threat but I pray we always remember what we love about each other and why we decided to get married in the first place. And it won't always be bliss throughout our marriage but I hope we can just let go of the petty things and remember what is important.



To many many more years of marriage!
