One Year Anniversary

I can not believe how fast one year can go by... it has been the best year of my life! Because we work at an elementary school we were both able to have two weeks off. We have loved being down in St. George with our family and spend Christmas, Birthdays, and New Years Eve (Posts to come with these events) without planning the wedding! It is kind of hard to have a anniversary around the holidays; especially when we want to be with family too. However, we escaped and spent a night out together. We had such a blast and it was nice to take advantage of what is in St. George. We talked about the highlights of the year and here are a few that we loved about being in married in 2008:
  • Going to Disneyland for our Honeymoon-and the funny experiences that came with it
  • Visiting Puerto Rico, Culebra with the Bess family
  • Doing all of our fun projects together
  • Spending time with all the Goodwin Family and attending a siblings family sealing
  • The opportunity we had of being a Ma and Pa for the Youth Trek (the friendships that we have developed from the experience :))
  • The joy of becoming one (getting used to everything being "ours" instead of "mine" and "yours")
We have a had a lot of fun this year and anyone who has followed our blog would be able to see that. We were told when we got married that the first year of marriage would be the most fun but also the hardest year. We have come to find that to be true but we would not change anything about it. Burke is such a great husband and I am very grateful to be able to be with him for Eternity!
