Back from Vacation!
Wow. I need to be back at the station to avoid doing more hard labor. Don't get me wrong, we work here, but not with shovels and hammers. It was hot and humid. I built a "skirting table" for my wife. I'll take some pictures. OH, almost forgot, I saw this too:
Blue Sky! Amazing. Then, in a instant it was gone.

One year later...
Sunday, July 12th, 2009 marked one year of marriage to my husband, Dana. Time flies when you're having fun!! It wasn't necessarily the most romantic of days for us. We have been expecting company from Texas and had a major project of remodeling our master bedroom, and the deadline in getting ourselves out of the guest bedroom and finishing our room in time for guests and new bedroom furniture was quickly approaching. Our anniversary saw us wearing old t-shirts and raggedy shorts while we finished sanding and painting our room. But, we did it together and actually had some fun working on a project by ourselves and playing while we did it.
We also managed to take a break at the end of the day to pull our wedding cake out of the fridge to share a traditional moment of eating a piece of your wedding cake on the one year anniversary of your wedding. My girlfriend had packed it up quite nicely last year, and my sister had it stored in her freezer all this time. We let it thaw in our fridge over the weekend, and carefully unpacked it to see what we would be encountering. It certainly didn't have the beautiful look it had on my wedding day, and despite looking a little messy, it smelled good. We cut into it, and it didn't look bad at all. We sliced a couple of pieces and placed them onto a couple of plates, stuck our forks into our pieces and fed them to each other...Phew! Besides being slightly dry, the cake tasted fine...Yay! Success!
One year down...life to go...and looking forward to every minute of it!!
