h + m: January 2012

Happy New Year! I can't believe it's already 2012! This past year came and went so fast for me. It was a such a great year! 2012 has a lot to live up to :)

Christmas was great. We spent a lot of time with family and loved every minute of it. We are so blessed to have the families that we do. We were definitely spoiled this year! After living in our house for about a month we are finding out just how much stuff you need to fill a house, it's crazy! Most of our Christmas this year were gifts to fill our home, but it was just what we needed! Thanks to our parents!! We love you.

We also celebrated our 1st anniversary on Friday, December 30th. It was a fun day! Matt told me he had to work until 5 so I was planning on waiting to celebrate after that. Little did I know he was being sneaky and got it off. He woke up as if he was going to work, and then rang the door bell and had flowers for me. It was a great start to the day!

After some yummy cinnamon rolls for breakfast, we went to see "War Horse" at the Megaplex in Centerville. It was actually a really good movie! Although, I cried through about 90% of it, but I'm a huge cry baby. It's embarrassing. It had a great story line to it and was done really well, I wouldn't be apposed to watching it again. Go go see it. :)

When we walked in the theater though, their was sound but no picture on the screen. Bummer. We ended up waiting for about 15 minutes for the screen to be "re-booted," and even after that, no picture. A few minutes later a employer came in and apologized for the inconvenience and gave us all free movie tickets. Sweet! It ended up being not to bad of a deal after all!

After the movie, we got pulled over for making an "illegal U-turn." Yay. Me, still being emotional from the movie, started crying. I told Matt I could probably cry my way out of this one but he didn't think that would have worked for him. The cop came back with a warning, yes! We kept slippin through! So far, great day.

After we got home from the movie, we were just going to change and head off to my little cousins baptism. Matt had been laying on the couch feeling sick. Oh great. So while I was getting ready, I heard some unpleasant sounds coming from the bathroom. Yes, throw up noises. It came out of no where! This was the first time I had EVER seen him get sick like this :( Well, he told me he was fine to go to the baptism, so apprehensively, off we went.

After the baptism, he came home and laid down for a bit before we went to dinner. He was either faking it REALLY WELL, or he was starting to act like he was feeling a lot better. We went to Teppanyaki for dinner and it was delicious! It had been a long time since either of us had been there so we were really excited. It was a fun dinner!

After being ridiculously full, we came home and watched our wedding video. Isn't that a rule? haha it brought back wonderful memories and made me wish I could go back to that day. Honestly, it was so incredibly perfect. I may have even gotten a little emotional. ;)

We ended up being wayy too full to even try our cake that night, so we saved it for another night. And because it had been in the freezer for the year, I was a little apprehensive about making BOTH of us sick. So we did have a itsy bitsy taste of it the other night. . . . I had high hopes but, it was gross. I took out my knife we cut it with and everything but it just wasn't the same. Aww shoot. It's alright, it was fun to bring it out and to say we tried it. :)
