Kissin' the Blarney Stone

Something totally new happened while we were on vacation. (Unfortunately it was while I was someplace where there was no decent internet connection and had noplace to download/upload my pictures to, but what can ya do?) Drumroll please...

Our FIRST wedding anniversary was on St. Patrick's Day!!!


Miraculous? Well, sort of. I was never the kind of person to commit myself to something for eternity and then some. So getting married really was "the plunge" for me. Dan, on the other hand, was always ready. How often does that happen? Usually it's the other way around.

Anyhow, that's us up there. Fresh from the courthouse and wandering around Tippecanoe Place getting our picture taken.

Our parents got us the same lovely hot tub suite at a nice hotel that we had for our honeymoon. It was nice to relax and read a book (and not a textbook) for a change. And lounging in a huge-ass tub was really cool, too! No homework, no deadlines, nowhere to be, just hanging out.
