1 Year Anniversary




Today is our one year anniversary! Rob went all out for a weekend getaway to celebrate. He got us a hotel room that had a view of Lake Tahoe. He also reserved us a dinner cruise, something I've always wanted to do. It was SOOOO much fun! It started out with a band playing so we danced to "It's a Wonderful World". It's kinda hard to slow dance when my belly's so big I can't really get close to him. During the dance he brought up the fact that it was Preston's first dance with us. (How sweet!). After the band played, we went downstairs at sunset and had a really nice dinner. We sat with a nice couple that we had a lot in common with. So, it was nice chatting with them. After dinner (and a fabulous dessert) we went back upstairs to listen to the band and watch people dance. There was a little boy that stole the show by dancing to every fast dance. There was also an older lady that stole the show but it's because she had a skirt on that kept showing more than everyone wanted to see when her husband twirled her. We had such a nice evening. In my opinion, it was a perfect first anniversary getaway!
On our scenic drive home today I was thinking about all the memories we've already created in one year: our East Coast honeymoon, rodeos, nights in Truckee, get togethers at our house, bull riding school, telling Rob (and everyone) that I'm pregnant, pregnancy in general (the ultrasounds, hearing the heartbeat, choosing a name, hormones), date nights, adopting our "4 legged kids", BBQs with friends, our drive to/from MS, horseback riding at Alpine Meadows, inside jokes, my little dirtbike accident, trips to Sacto., baseball games... I can't believe it's been a year already! We've gotten used to living together, figuring out finances, learning how to communicate better. Marriage is hard work, but oh so worth it when you're with the right person! We are looking forward to many more years of memories together!!
