Celebrating One Year

We headed to Austin on Saturday after Tad's graduation. Woohoo! What a weekend. What better way to kick off our anniversary celebration on Sunday than with Tex-Mex at Hula Hut? There is always a long wait, but it is worth the wait every time! Please give me those shrimp enchiladas every year on our anniversary. I've also come to the realization Mexican restaurants will forever be crowded on this day. Sigh.

We wrapped it up on Sunday by eating a slice from the top tier of our wedding cake at the park. What can I say? We're superstitious. Speaking of which, "Superstition" by Stevie Wonder was actually playing at our wedding when we cut the cake. Coincidence? I think not.

The best part of the trip was the honeymoon suite. Little bit of an inside joke. If you see Tad around, just ask him to fill you in.

One Year Anniversary

Being a newlywed with this man has been an amazing journey of love and self-discovery. It's funny how living with someone can bring things to light about yourself. I realized how much I really just don't cook, but I love to clean. I'm not completely undomesticated! Give me a little credit. I've also realized I married the most patient man on earth. He's definitely taught me a thing or two.  

Still can't believe it has been a year since we said, "I Do" in front of our sweet family and friends. Time really does fly when you're having fun. Before we know it, we'll be celebrating our five year anniversary where I'm sure Tad will surprise me with a trip to Europe. Right, Tad? OK. Maybe for our six year. This year we'll be celebrating this happy day in Austin. Oh, and Happy Cinco De Mayo! We'll be celebrating this with everyone else too. Cue the mariachis.

Anniversaries, Birthdays and Such

Funny how life comes full circle sometimes. One year ago today, I started this little blog with a six month countdown post until our wedding. Today we have been married for six months. Happy Anniversary, Tad. You have brought such joy to my life these past few months. People say the first year of marriage is the hardest. Can't say I've felt that way on this journey so far. It's definitely not easy, but I've never been so happy.  

And Happy Birthday, little ol' blog. This one's for you.
