I married my best friend and love of my life


At 2:30pm on February 5, 2008, I said "I do" to the wonderful man I call my husband. It was 80º and sunny with a breeze in downtown Charleston. (Glad we got married last year and not this year! The high is in the 30's today!!)

Sometimes I cant believe it's already been a year, other times I'm like "wow, it's ONLY been a year?!"
Today is also our 4 year anniversary of being together.


This morning he showed up at my work with a red rose and a sweet card for me. Inside he wrote "One red rose for one wonderful year of marriage"
He also gave me the anniversary eternity band we bought in the Caribbean last year on our honeymoon. When he gave it to me, he got on one knee and asked me to marry him again


Tonight I have pole class so we cant go out for dinner (I dont get out of there until 8:30-8:45pm), but I was figuring that cooking him his favorite meal (bacon-wrapped honey mustard chicken tenders) would be even nicer to do.


And I'm so glad we are in our new home for our anniversary! It's almost like we're on a whole new honeymoon.

Awww, congrats to you both!!
. I'm SO glad you were able to be in your new house for this day. I'm sure he really won't want to go out anytime tonight after you both are home!
Go out to dinner over the weekend.

Enjoy, and spare us the details tomorrow!

Thanks!



I swear, ever since we've been in the new house, the man cant keep his hands off me! It's almost like when we were first dating, and I lived 200 miles away so we only saw each other every 1-3 weeks on weekends.

It's been so relaxing being in our own house, and we are both just insanely happy we could be in there by our anniversary.
I've already felt a lot of stress melt away in these last 5-6 days. I even think it made today even more wonderful!

We probably will just move our anniversary dinner out to this weekend - we have a date night every Saturday anyway, so we can just incorporate it.

Well, you DO know you have to "christen" every room in the house, right?

Oh trust me, I've been waiting to do that (and mentioning it!) since we started this process
Unfortunately we don't have blinds yet (they were supposed to come with the house but apparently never got ordered...so we have to buy them now) so you can see right in the house! And I dont think I want to give anyone a show LOL.

Although our huge walk in closet, bedroom, and master bathroom are already checked off the list
