The last month and our Anniversary






This is been such a crazy month!! We were not able to go to Rhode Island this summer because it was just to expensive. But it worked out that my family came out to visit instead. Mom came at the end of June and we had a great time. Mom was here for about a week. She also came with a lady from Russia and her daughter. The unemployment in R.I. is over 10% so she was hoping to find some work out here. She loved Park City and is hoping to move out here eventually. Dad and Bettyann were heading out to Vegas in the beginning of July and decided to drive down here for a night. It was just great to have family around. And we were able to show them the house and test my cooking out on them!!

Then Dad drove us down to the airport and we headed to Vegas. Only we made there it A LOT faster than Dad and Bettyann. Chris and I were going there to celebrate our 1 year anniversary. Can you believe it has already been 1 year!!!

We had a lot of fun. It was a little stressful because we didn't really plan the trip. We went to Vegas because we had a free trip for a few nights and we decided to extend it. So the first few nights we stayed at the Sahara which is on the strip but waaaaayyy on the end. So it was a pretty long walk to anything fun. It was also 112 degrees. So the next few nights we stayed at the Riveria. Which was a lot nicer. But still not very close. On the final night we stayed at the Luxor which was beautiful! We loved it there. We just relaxed and took in the sites. But we both kind of got sick while we were there. Only Chris and I would get sick on vacation! It was just nice to get out of Logan for a while.

When we got home we celebrated our anniversary here. We made a nice dinner and took out our wedding cake top. We had a delicious wedding cake, well it was last year anyway. But I got a white chocolate cake with cheesacake filling and Chris had a chocolate cake with some kind of chocolate filling. I do not like chocolate cake so on the wedding we each ate our own kind. But the top happened to be the chocolate kind. So I was not looking forward to eating it, especially after it sitting in our freezer for a year. When we took it out, it looked pretty good, considering. And it honestly wasn't terrible to eat. We only took 1 bite each but still.

So far it has been a great year. Some very good memories. Expecially starting our marriage off with Mono. If we can get through that we can get through anything! I really do have an amazing husband who continues to impress me each day. I am looking forward to the next 50 years!!
