So we did it! Me and Jeff made it through 1 year of marriage. The first year is the hardest year right?? I think that saying must be a joke because it was no doubt the best year of my life! If that's the hardest then life will be bliss...haha. I made a list of reasons why I love Jeff and was going to post it but then decided against it. Some things should probably be kept just for Jeff! But, it made me realize just how very lucky I am. I think the biggest thing that makes me so lucky is how committed to his job he is, and making a living for us. He's dang good at it too! I'm so glad I didn't have to put him through school as well. Although we do have to put a big chunk of money into buying a business...but that's a great investment. Anyways, I am thrilled with how things are turning out for us!
So for our anniversary this year we decided on a low key celebration. Jeff made me dinner (steak) and then we did gifts and put up our Christmas tree! And then we went to bed =). We thought it would be a great tradition to always put up our Christmas tree on our anniversary because we both love Christmas and I love putting the tree up! It's a fairly small tree right now, but I love it that way!
Jeff's dinner included steak, baked potatoes, asparagus, caesar salad, and of course the sparkling juice! Not too shabby!!
Gifts:
I got the most amazing gift! So for my wedding I never got a wedding band because, well, I didn't want one. Since my ring is a split band I thought it would look too much to have another band. But...I was quick to change my mind. So here are a couple pictures of my ring now, with the band I just got!
Kind of pretty right! Actually I love it!! I got some cheesy shirts made for us that Jeff didn't want a picture of. But, since he loves me, he let me take one of the back and put it on here =).
He thought it was pretty hilarious! The front just says I <3 Jeff or Ashlyn. We wore these to our family dinners to show them off to everyone...haha!
So me and Jeff are super excited about the next year of our marriage! We have some exciting things coming up, including a trip to Europe in April, and we can't wait for our lives to continue on together!
