Anniversary Gifts

Last night, we were finally able to exchange our anniversary gifts. It was a lot of fun :). Dan gave me an apron from Williams-Sonoma. I had only mentioned that I would like an apron, since that is one thing that I didn't have, and somehow he remembered it! He also got an ice cream scoop -- we kind of bent the other one we had and it was coming apart. The new one is pretty sturdy! Come and enjoy ice cream with us soon, ok? I gave Dan a book with pictures from our first year. I have been the worst about getting pictures printed off, so that is definitely one of my projects for the summer.

Mother's Day

We have the most wonderful mothers in the world, no doubt. Unfornutately, the Chocolate truffles we mailed to Ohio turned into a giant chocolate block. We can take that off the "gifts to mail" list! For my mom, dinner and a card found its way to the table on Sunday. We enjoyed talking with both of our mothers and to Grammie Campbell and Grandma Kline on Sunday....how blessed we are!!!

Proverbs 31:28-31

Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:"Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all."Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her works praise her in the gates.

Our First Anniversary

A year has past since our wedding day. So quickly it has gone by! Today we celebrated by just being together. We ate breakfast at Chick-fil-a and then Dan went to church to prepare for Sunday while I went to a bridal shower. Around noon, Miles Coleman came over to Mom and Dad's and we spent some time "catching up." Afterwards, we went over to Ryan and Amy's and ate birthday ice cream ... to celebrate our anniversary. We are going to miss them. This evening, we did some grocery shopping and then I made dinner for Sunday. Dan went and got a movie for us and dinner --Chili's chicken crispers. We enjoyed our time so much! How fun to just be together. In a year of marriage, one thing I realize is that each day, marriage gets better and better. God has blessed us with a most wonderful gift! And what a joy it has been to grow and serve together! Truly Psalm 37 is a great reality in our lives.
