If you feel like you've just read this blog a few months ago about our wedding anniversary, you are correct. But this wedding anniversary is the one we hold dearer to our hearts as it is the wedding anniversary that united us in the Catholic Church. This wedding anniversary means much more than the civil anniversary we celebrated a few months ago. On New Year's Eve, three years ago, Chris proposed to me in Spain and we immediately set the date for New Year's Eve 2011. I picked this date for several reasons: a) we would have a hard time forgetting the date, b) I've always wanted a wedding around the Christmas season, and c) New Year's Eve fell on a Saturday in 2011 and what a way to ring it in!
In one of my first posts, I displayed several of my favorite pictures and talked about our wonderful day. It really does not seem like it's been a year. That is very cliche, but it is true. We have had a fantastic first year of marriage. We have enjoyed getting to know each other better, growing in our love, adopting a new basset hound, and slowly remodeling our house. It hasn't always been easy, but that's what prayer is for. God has shown us what it takes to make this first year work and what we need to keep working on to celebrate many more happy years together. I thank God for allowing us to have this first year of marriage and look forward to what this next year has in store for us.
