First Wedding Anniversary!

As promised by my last post, here's the link on the how to for the wreath. I could have used a couple more flowers. And should have waited till everything was on sale/paid attention to what was on sale vs what was not. (Apparently, white hydrangeas from Michaels were not. The blue ones that I ended up with from Pat Catan's were but still expensive.)

So, Joe and I have been married for one year as of yesterday. Sigh.
Let's look back...
Here are some pictures...

 I was going to add like a million more but it didn't want to upload them. Maybe because I removed the disc.
Anyway, we had a fantastic wedding and the first year of marriage wasn't so bad either.

We didn't have much planned for yesterday. I had told Joe that there wasn't anything that I could think of wanting for a present but then decided on a hanging basket. But not petunias. I hate petunias. I could show you a picture of my new hanging basket but somehow didn't receive one...As for Joe's present, I framed a vintage postcard of the Laughlin Mill and one of our wedding photos. Unfortunately, the one good photo of us and the mill is one that I absolutely hate. My face is all smashed up in it because of the sun.

Saturday, we went out to Red Lobster and ate way to much. We hung out that night.
Yesterday, more of hanging out and then Joe grilled some steaks for us. All in all a very uneventful weekend and anniversary. We did eat some year old cake. Joe really liked it. I regretted that it wasn't lemon. Joe is going to have to make the rest of it disappear. Which is unusual.

Today, I am making Joe a special dinner. I also made reservations at Michael Symon's restaurant Lola in Cleveland. The reservations are not for two weeks. Also, I made hotel reservations at a really fancy hotel after the idea of a Bed and Breakfast was shot down. I like the idea of it but not the actual idea of staying in a stuffy room in a small house with strangers and having to eat with them. I already had to pay for the hotel room (boo) but can cancel. I hope. I probably should have ran it all past Joe first. He's actually be a big spoil sport about this whole idea but I really think that we need some time away. Plus, I already made arrangements for the dogs to be staying at the clinic...
