I just wanted to put up a cute pic from Dan and Jen’s wedding this past weekend.

In the midst of all our craziness, our marriage turned 1 year old on Sunday.

Beau surprised me with a wonderful weekend getaway (that I wished could have lasted forever) and even brought our wedding cake along. He thinks of everything. During the wedding day, the only piece of cake that we had was the one that we fed each other. So I was kinda looking forward to sitting down and actually being able to “taste” our yummy cake. We had three different layers and we saved our favorite for the top, red velvet with cream cheese filling. Well folks…let me tell you how NOT to store your cake if you would like to follow this crazy tradition of eating your cake a year later and actually enjoying it.

In a Ziploc bag, shoved into the back of your freezer, is NOT the way of sealing a piece of moist deliciousness. Not horrible, but not that fabulous. I tried to find a site that seemed to have the answer on how to properly freeze it, but I really didn’t find anything that I thought sounded more secure than our Ziploc route. So I went with word of mouth instead. Niki, our ever fabulous friend and assistant, froze her cake and then using a Food Saver vacuumed sealed it. She said that it was still wonderful a year later. I hope that helps, I really think someone should just create a tradition to eat it the night of the wedding.

I cannot believe how fast the year went by. My heart is so full with love I think it may burst any day now. I got to marry my soul mate and my best friend. And not to mention I think he is the most gorgeous person I have ever laid my eyes on.

I am a very lucky girl.

Always and always.
