Our Wedding Day


Robby and I were married on May 29, 2009 and I cannot believe it's been almost a year!! We got married at the Ritz Carlton in Denver, Colorado and it was the perfect location. My parents gave us such a wonderful day and we are so grateful for everything they did. We also had an incredible wedding planner, Heather Allen of Table 6 Productions and I recommend her to anyone having any kind of event! Check out her website, http://table6productions.com/, I cannot say enough good things about her and her team! Here are some of the wonderful pictures taken by our photographer Frances, http://www.francesphotography.com/.









Love my sister!






O how I miss you three!!





Thanks to everyone who made our wedding so special!!

Birthdays

Yesterday was my 23rd birthday and it was my first birthday as an actual adult. I miss waking up when I was little and coming downstairs on the morning of my birthday to find a massive amount of presents on the kitchen island! Although I didn't open any presents on my birthday I got some of the best presents. I got a Kindle from my parents, which I got it a few weeks early...I love it!! I also bought myself an iTouch that was from my husband :) My sister gave me a cute bag and shirt from Victoria's Secret and she also got me a stereo for my iTouch and I got a purse from my grandparents. I also did some shopping tonight! I think I like birthday's better than Christmas!

My mom and I also went to see the movie Valentine's Day last night...it was so cute!! After the movie we ate my strawberries and champagne birthday cake from Das Meyer. It was SO good...pink cake with pink frosting, strawberries, and champagne is my new favorite kind of cake.



The best birthday cake EVER

I got this idea from another blog and decided to try it, so here are 23 random things about me.
1. I absolutely LOVE the color pink.
2. For my puppy's 1st birthday I am throwing him a birthday party, complete with a bone shaped cake and birthday hats.
3. I have never broken a bone.
4. I love to read.
5. I still watch the Disney Channel, regularly.
6. I had 44 (I think) stitches in the inside of my mouth, between my lip and jaw just over a year ago.
7. HGTV is my other favorite tv station.
8. House Hunters is one of my favorite shows.
9. I have watched every season (except the first one) of the Bachelor.
10. I have never played a sport.
11. I love my husband more than anything.
12. I cannot stand to hear other people chew!
13. I do and eat everything in even numbers.
14. I count the number of steps I take...and they have to be even.
15. I love to work out!
16. I have an obsession with candles - Tyler and Yankee Candles.
17. I cannot wait to have my own house to decorate.
18. I still listen to Adventures in Odyssey, a children's radio show...I think we have every episode on tape or CD.
19. I am a pediatric nurse and just a couple weeks ago I absolutely fell in love with a 2 month old baby, I hope he defies the odds and statistics! Good luck buddy!!
20. I am deathly afraid of spiders and bugs...pretty much anything with wings or more than 4 legs.
21. I love buttercream frosting, the corner piece is always mine...don't ever take my frosting...Robby...
22. I love the sun!
23. I think it would be fun to have a posh job (like a magazine editor) and penthouse in New York City.
That was fun, but kinda hard to do!

I missed having Robby and my sister here for my birthday, but it was still a good one. Hope this year is filled with new and exciting things!

Although it wasn't for my birthday, the best present I have gotten this year was the Tiffany heart necklace my hubby sent my for Valentine's Day...but it will be topped when he finally comes home!! LOVE YOU!

The Beginning

So I finally gave in and decided to start my own blog. I am horrible at writing and expressing my thoughts, but I want something to do, so lets give it a shot! I know that no one will probably read this, except for my husband, parents, and maybe my sister, but at least it gives me something to do.

To start, I spent forever just trying to decide what to call my blog...I had already made two different blogs and decided that I didn't like the titles, and everything else I tried was already taken so, I finally decided on this one....might change my mind again...I don't ever seem to like the things I come up with!

I married Robby on May 29, 2009 and he was deployed at the end of June. We are going on the ninth month of him being gone, but he should be home in less than two months and we can finally really be married!!! He has been a Seabee in the United States Navy for almost five years, I have known him for more than four of those years and I couldn't be more proud of him!
