ONE YEAR

….which gives me the right to a super sappy love post about my husband. Deal with it.

I don’t like blogging about my feelings. I guess I just like to keep personal things… personal.

But I have been on the verge of tears all day. Really happy tears. Happy because I have been married to the greatest guy in the world for 365 whole days.

Part of me is sad that we aren’t really newly weds anymore. But it doesn’t matter if you still feel like one right?

The day I married Scott I didn’t think I could be any happier or love him anymore. I couldn’t have been more wrong. I seriously fall more and more in love with him every day. And every day I am reminded of why he is so perfect for me. I truly believe that there is not another person out there who is more right for me than Scott.

While we were engaged people kept saying how the first year of marriage is the hardest, if that is true, then marriage is going to be a dream. Sure I didn’t expect to spend over a months worth of nights in a different country, and yes it was a little bit of an adjustment learning how to live with someone else, and sometimes we weren’t the happiest with each other, but it was all worth it. Because finding someone who loves you and makes you feel like you are the most beautiful, special, important thing on the planet simply makes life better.

While part of me wants time to slow down because it can’t have possibly been a year already, the other part of me is so excited for all of the unknown adventures the future holds. Either way I feel so blessed with the knowledge that I get to be with Scott forever. Because even eternity doesn’t sound long enough.

Ok enough of the sappy love stuff. (If you are still reading). I promise that won’t happen again. (Ok not until August 17^th 2015).

We didn’t do much to celebrate today. After surviving over 12 hours of traveling yesterday (aka tortue), we spent the day driving out to Emerald Isle for my first Hiatt family vacation. Scott and I did get to sneak away a little to read some notes that our wedding guests left for us last year. And I surprised him with a little anniversary wedding video

It was a blast. Some of the notes very sweet and touching (and may have brought me to tears), and some were plain hilarious.

And our boy Anthony wrote us a really great one.

I am so excited for the future. The immediate future which includes being at this beautiful beach for the next 7 days, and the little more far off future, graduating college, starting a real job and having babies (jk that’s in the really far off future...or is it?)

Hope you had as great of an August 17^th as I did!
