One Year!

So I really don't get around to blogging much! Obviously. Tomorrow is our first anniversary! It's amazing how quickly the past year has gone. It's been a great year too! Here's a few highlights of our year...

June 27, 2009...We're married!

July 2009...Honeymoon in Banner Elk, NC. We enjoyed a wonderful week together in a great secluded one room cabin. It was great and I'm really looking forward to going back one day!

October 2009...Employed! I accepted a job as a teacher's assistant hoping it would turn into something more. This was all a sigh of relief to Charlie to have the extra income and to really be able to start putting a dent in our Student Loans!

November 2009...Our first Thanksgiving! We stayed home ALONE and it was lovely! I cooked way too much food! We also enjoyed a weekend of camping at Jordan Lake. The nights were COLD, but great for cuddling in the tent!

December 2009...Christmas! Once again, another holiday alone. We did visit family before and after the holidays, but Christmas morning was ours alone. This month was also my birthday. We celebrated with a fancy dinner at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse and a shopping trip for new clothes.

January 2010...My teacher assistant job turned into a full-time teaching job! Due to overcrowding in the school system they were able to create new classrooms. It was wonderful to have my own classroom again.

February 2010...Happy Birthday Charlie! We were snowed in for his birthday. Celebratory cuddles on the couch!

May 2010...My contract was renewed! Yay! A little piece of mind!

June 2010...Cruise! We booked our first cruise this month. It's supposed to be for our anniversary, but we can't go until August when I finally get a break from school. We're both really looking forward to this one.

We're celebrating tonight with a big, fancy dinner at the Angus Barn. It's amazing how quickly the past year has flown by. Everyday has been better than I could have dreamed married life would be!
