We Made It!

The best day of my life: June 14, 2012

Happy One Year to us! I cannot believe it has already been a year since the most perfect day of my life.  Our wedding day was one I never want to forget and I am so glad we were able to celebrate it this last weekend. It has been a rough, unforgettable, wonderful, amazing year with my dear Dugie.

We had a fabulous time on Friday and Saturday, as Dugan took work off on both nights. On Friday morning, we went to the Salt Lake Temple and did sealings at the same time we were sealed a year ago. It was so amazing to be there and to remember the exact feelings and excitement we had the year before. The weather was perfect just like on our wedding day and we could not have asked for a better experience in the temple.


My mother surprised us with some goodies for our day and then we went to lunch at Zupas. After lunch, we went to see Superman which Dugan had been dying to see, and it just happened to come out on June 14th. We liked it a lot, even though the critics did not.






Dugan also surprised me with an amethyst ring for our anniversary. It is gorgeous! It is my birthstone for February, so I have always wanted an amethyst ring.

Wedding cake time! My mother did a fabulous job with wrapping and preserving our top tier from our wedding cake in her freezer. It tasted just as good as a freshly made cake! Dugan and I had two flavors baked together, carrot cake for me, and lemon poppy seed for him.




That evening we originally had planned to go to Canella's for dinner, but decided we did not feel like going anywhere fancy, and ended up getting Pei Wei. Ha! We ordered take out and took it to The Little America where we were staying that night. It was a wonderful evening with time to just relax and have the night to ourselves.





The next morning we went to breakfast and then to the chalk art festival downtown. It was a great way to end the weekend as I love going to the chalk art festival each year.




We were so lucky to have had some time to spend together and not only did we get to celebrate then, but we get to celebrate again in July when we go to Disneyland! I can barely contain my excitement (I think Dugan may be more excited than me though...kidding).

Our cake did well too! Even with a drive halfway across America! Good tradition! Happy 1 year!
