Happy Anniversary!

So, I'm a little late posting this but Jim and I celebrated our second anniversary on June 23rd. I can't believe we have been married for two years! It really seems like we just got engaged yesterday. Our time together has been wonderful and I'm so happy that we found each other (and that he stuck around while I grew up a little). Our little family has grown and we feel blessed beyond belief. We are looking forward to the years to come.

We celebrated by going to happy hour at Cregan's in North Little Rock and then we walked down to Ristorante Capeo for dinner. It was a fabulous evening...but I was kinda sad that we didn't have another layer of wedding cake to dig into! Next year maybe we'll have Mickey's recreate the top layer of our wedding cake for us...or maybe we'll just get a couple cupcakes. If you know me at all you know I love a good excuse for cake!

Speaking of cake...here are a few of my favorite cake pictures...

I spent countless hours searching for wedding cake ideas. I realize this is silly and that the cake isn't the most important part of the day...but again, if you know me you know I love cake! I was happy with how our's turned out. The cake topper was my grandparent's. I was so excited that my Mama saved it and that we could use it. My Mama and Papa are two of my most favorite people and no other cake topper would have done for our wedding.

Here they are on their wedding day. They will celebrate their 60th anniversary this year!

Jim LOVES cheesecake...so, we had 4 groom's cheesecakes!

I got him good! Okay, so he got me good too. I almost never got the cake out of my nose!


I love tradition! I didn't let Jim see my dress before the wedding, we didn't see each other on our wedding day until just before the ceremony and I had my something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue. So, as I'm sure you've gathered...in keeping with wedding traditions we saved the top layer of our wedding cake and ate it on our first anniversary. Amazingly enough it was just as good a year later even after being frozen!

He really got me good a year later!!


Happy Anniversary Sweetie!

Love you, Boog - yes he calls me Boog...it's short for Booger Bear...and I'm okay with it. :)
