Our first year together!

So the first year of being newly weds is over. I once heard you are a newly wed until you have kids... haha it'll still be a while. This year has been fun, I mean come on shoving two BIG personalities, habits, ticks, short comings, and all around lives into one home, forcing them to "live with it", It's fun. It seems you know a person inside and out and all about them, but then live with them for a year and you realize... you know them only a little. I've had fun getting to know Eric a lot more. I'm sure I've been a party too. ;) I love being with my family and being around them. Sometimes I can't get enough! Not only that but now I have two which is even better than only one! I love going to Arizona. Its like a small vacation each time. Heck going anywhere more than an hour from here is vacation. haha. We've had fun camping and traveling back and fourth to utah, vegas, phoenix, and back again. haha. We are thinking about a Washington trip next year maybe about Feb or march. It's still hard to believe a year has passed and yet its hard to believe it's only been a year.

For our celebration we went to the Melting Pot (of course) It's become tradition. We went there on our almost one year dating before Eric was deployed, and 2 days after our wedding for our pretend honeymoon. Needless to say it was still good. After dinner we went to Madame Tusseaudes Wax museum. It was freaky. I have a fear of masked things coming after me and or things being still and then moving. Im going to guess that the knight at the excalibur when I was 5 scared me too much. Some of the statues were so real looking you had to tap them to make sure. Somewhere towards the end we come across this "SCREAM" area. There is a dude with frizzed hair just standing. I didn't know who it was I figured it was a horror show character. So of course after seeing Eric be up close and nothing happening, I move up to see if I can tell who it is. That effer moved! Scared the shit out of me! Oh man I felt like my heart was going to throw up. It was funny to see other people jump though. As we walked into the next room, I said aloud "if anyone moves, I will punch you" No one moved. I think it was because they were all fake. It was still fun though. So after walking about a mile to get to our car we got in and it was time for bed. I wore some heels and I awarded myself with 4 blisters! (Thanks Christy now I know why you gave them to me for free!)
I can't imagine not having met Eric and missing out on all of the fun time and the bad times, and the akward times. Its been the best. I know right now we are both hoping our lives would move a little faster, but we still live in the moment or moments that we can get. I know one day we will both look back and wish we could lives these moments just one more time.

I will post more pictures tomorrow. I wrote this on our/My new laptop. We are still setting it up so pictures will have to be passed along by a flash drive for now.
