2nd Anniversary

For our anniversary we did our usual meal at IHOP :). We were in class and at work all day, and we're generally not big celebrators, so it was low key. I guess it fits, considering our wedding day involved a court house, IHOP, waiting in lines at Army all day, and a night sharing a twin in the barracks. Oh, and we watched Away We Go; it's our special movie. Maybe we will watch it this weekend; and I think we're taking a trip out to the Salt Lick to try something new and spend some time together before I head to Boston on Sunday.

Two Years Ago

I married a good man.

One Month

I just double checked the date, and yes, it is one month until our one year anniversary. Whoa! What should we do to celebrate? I mean, we will definitely go to IHOP at some point, but what else? Apparently the first year gift is traditionally paper. I fear I may end up with a shiny new package of printer paper. :)

or maybe a pretty card instead
even though these are clearly wedding cards

So husband had his first full day of work since returning, leaving the house at 5am and returning around 5:30pm. Too pooped to protest, this gave me the perfect opportunity to make my tuna casserole for dinner! Husband hadn't tried it yet, as I haven't made it for him yet, as he doesn't very much care for fish. BUT I've had even picky tuna hating children say it was good and eat it up, so I hoped I could win him over. I added peas to the recipe and put a little less tuna than usual. Well, I don't know if he'll start to crave fish any time soon, but he liked the casserole, and even had seconds! 

Tomorrow the lovely Tracy (bridesmaid. friend. Pens fan) is doing a Wednesday Wedding guest post, so be sure to check in then!

We Got Married on a Monday in March

 Since there are no pictures, I recreated it with origami cranes...

Monday March 7.

That was a pretty awesome day. 

Eight months ago.

Dear Husband

We have been married for six months! I hate that we are so far away, and I miss you every day, but there is nobody more worth missing. Thank you for marrying me six months ago in a little courthouse in Texas; it is very comforting being your wife through all of this.

Love,
Wife
