August - January 2012: James was deployed to Afghanistan. I moved in with my parents during the 5 month stint. Thanks to modern technology we were able to keep in contact from across the world!!
January 19th - 22nd: We took a long weekend trip to Washington, DC...kind of like a 2nd honeymoon :-)
January 26th - 29th: Drove down to North Carolina to see James' parents for the 1st time since returning from overseas.
February 22nd - 26th: Merry Christmas!! We drove to New Jersey and then to New York to spend our "Christmas" together. During this trip I was able to meet a lot of James' family. I also had my 15 seconds of fame on the Dave Letterman show!
March 19th - 24th: We took a short trip back to Colorado to see my family and load up the Santa Fe with the essentials we would need for our new apartment...my bride-brain was on overload when packing last June, apparently essentials did not include towels or sheets...oops! Friday morning we hopped in the vehicle and headed east...Saturday evening we arrived home - it was a beautiful road trip across country!
April 8th: Easter...our 1st holiday spent together as husband and wife. I tried my best to make it traditional, but a broken oven made it a bit difficult ;-)
April 14th: Surprise Birthday weekend in Williamsburg...visited the Jamestown Fort, took a food tour of Merchant Square, learned how to make wine at the Williamsburg Winery and tried to solve a 70s Murder Mystery while enjoying a 4 course meal...yep, my tummy was full by the end of the day!!
**I have more pictures on my camera, but haven't put them on my computer yet.
Life has been a whirlwind of fun and adventures since marrying the love of my life! My plan is to keep this blog more up to date...check back soon!
