Two Years

Today, Jared and I have been married for TWO years! I cannot believe it has already been that long! It seems like just yesterday that I was scrambling around trying to get everything ready for our wedding day! Last year was a little sad because I had to come to the realization that not only was our wedding over, but it had been over for a year! This year has had its ups and downs, but I am so excited for what God has in store for Jared and I in the next coming years. 





Here is Jared and I last year on our anniversary. Clearly, Jared was thrilled to take this picture in the middle of the Cowboy's game! :) I can't wait to do this every year wherever we celebrate! 

Jared took me on an early date celebration on Saturday. We went to Bailey's Prime Plus. It was pretty delicious and really cute! We are leaving on Saturday for our real anniversary celebration in Chicago! I am so excited to get away for a few days with my handsome husband! 

Happy Anniversary Jared! I love you more and more everyday and I am so happy that I get to spend my life with you!

Random 100

I saw on a few other blogs that people are posting 100 random things about yourself. I loved doing this on facebook so I going to do it again on here!

As of 2011 the 100 most random things about me are:


1. I am a hypochondriac.  Of course this is self diagnosed but if I EVER here about some sort of illness...I immediately think I have it. If I ever have a weird pain I automatically think it is something bad.

2. I have been married for almost 2 years exactly! Love you Jerry! :)

3. I am still really sad that my wedding is over. I think about that almost every day and sometimes I get teary eyed.

11. Even if I don't actually go on vacation I still like getting on Expedia and researching how much it would be if were WERE to go on vacation.
