Our 1 Year Anniversary!

Last weekend, Richard and I went to Long Beach, WA to celebrate our one year anniversary. I can't believe it's been one year! We stayed at a friends grandparents cabin and had a lot of fun. All day Saturday we hung out in downtown Long Beach. We ate breakfast at a little diner, walked the boardwalk, went put-putting, walked through the shops, made sure to get some fudge and snickerdoodles and ate some yummy seafood for dinner. It was a really relaxing weekend and I was happy to spend it with the love of my life : )


This is the cabin we stayed in.


There was this really large frying pan for people to take pictures by, (why? I have no idea).

Put-Putting. Richard got a hole in one on one of the holes!

I like taking pictures of pretty flowers : )

We had been looking forward to eating the top of our wedding cake from a year ago. It had been through some traveling and didn't look to great, but it still tasted like the best wedding cake ever!

Since we moved to WA just a couple weeks after we were married, that means we've been here for about a year too.
In fact, we just signed another year lease at our apartment, that means we'll be here for at least two years : ) When I look back on this past year, in some ways it seems it went really slow, but then I think about all that we have done and it seems like a lot for one year. Even though this past year has been full of changes and hard on us both, I think we have grown so much individually and as a couple. It's weird and funny how God works in ways you don't expect, you just always have to be ready and open for what He throws your way.
