O-N-E.

Mike and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary over the weekend. 



(Old fashioned chocolate cake with a salted caramel filler,

complete with the topper from our wedding cake.)



We did the dinner-and-a-movie thing on Saturday night and it was perfect – it felt just like one of our first dates.  Then on Sunday, Mike woke me up with breakfast in bed and a seriously awesome present.  He found me a window frame and sanded and whitewashed it for me.  He was going to make me a blackboard with it, but he knew I would probably have some crafty ideas up my sleeve, so he left it plain so I can make it into whatever I want… He knows me far too well :)

I made Mike a photo book of our first married year - It’s crazy looking back at how much we managed to cram into a year!  I want to make sure we don’t forget any of it.  I wrote in the card that I’d made the book to keep with the traditional gift for first anniversaries, which is paper.  I got a text from him the next day saying that, just FYI, his gift also stuck with tradition, as it was just paper in its pre-paper form.  Haha, I love that guy.

I can’t believe it has already been a whole year since our wedding day.  Time has flown so fast, but the past 12 months have been amazing.  Our first year of marriage has been everything I expected it to be, but so, so much more.  I am more in love with Mike than ever and I’m so excited to see what the next year of our marriage holds.

(The only photo I took of us on our anniversary, oops.)

I love you, babe.  Happy one year (and three days) anniversary xxx
