Date Day 1.0

This past Wednesday my husband and I spent our first day off acting like Denver tourists! In a previous post I had expressed my excitement about having a day off together each week, and the first day did not disappoint! First stop... fresh juice of course! :)

This is my favorite new place... EVER! Forget Starbucks I would rather have a delicious fresh juice! Oh, and ignore that mine is almost gone in this picture! ;)

Nekter Juice

Next stop... down town to the new Union Station! We had so much fun! I had no idea how amazing it was inside, with restaurants, shops and even a hotel! I felt like a real tourist and didn't mind it one bit! 

Oh, and of course it's not an adventure without our photogenic photos ;) 

This is his: "Please do not take a photo of me" I mean... if you couldn't tell! 

This is his... "Fine... this is all you get." I'll take it! ;)

I'm so happy to be here!!

This is me trying to jump in front of Union Station. And this is my husband trying to capture it. FAIL.

And one more to show how happy we are! ;) We had the best day and I am so happy we get to spend more time together! Bring on the next week!

Anniversary Month

Hey all!! It's July which means for me it is a very special month. July is our Anniversary Month. Wedding anniversary and dating anniversary! Yes, we are that cheesy couple that keeps track of both! I'll give you a little background and hope I don't bore you with all my details. 10 years ago on July 25th (yes, I said 10 YEARS!) we went on our very first date. I remember the day like it was yesterday because I was SOOO excited and yet not nervous at all. The minute we got in the car to go on our date it was as if we were best friends instantly. We had so much to talk about, and the day flew by! Flash forward 5 years and on that same day, July 25th he proposed in the exact same spot. I remember the day was extremely hot, we were outside walking around a lake and he was persistent about looking at the ducks. You would think I would have known something was up, but my clueless self had no flippin idea! I kept asking if we could leave and get water because I was so hot, but he continued to wander around the lake wanting to relax, sit down on the bench, look at the ducks and then... it happened. I cried, he teared up and the moment had finally happened, we were engaged to be married! Then, on July 31, 2010 we said I DO. I remember being so relaxed and care-free on our wedding day, it was the most perfect day and I only cared about one thing: becoming husband and wife. Now, fast forward almost 4 years and I cannot believe we are approaching our 4 year anniversary!! People always say time flies, but truly the time has flown by. We have had many adventures, travels, vacations, date nights, movie nights, lazy days, house projects...etc. and it has all been wonderful. Not perfect, but wonderful. I truly am blessed to say I married my best friend and I couldn't imagine my life with anyone else. The Lord truly blessed me with an amazing man! So... happy anniversary month to my one and only.
