Anniversary

It's hard to believe our Anniversary is here! It seems like yesterday we were married in Anderson and were anxious to hear where the army would be sending us. Little did we know we would be heading to Oklahoma and then back to the South on the coast! Sometimes when I think about what all we've done this past year it seems much longer!....we've lived in 3 different states (SC, OK & GA) in 3 different houses- wow! Even though we've had many moves and adjustments in our lives this year, I'm thankful the Lord gave it to us and allowed us to spend it together. Next year he will be gone on our Anniversary, so we wanted to make this year special.

DINNER CRUISE ON THE SAVANNAH RIVER-- Saturday, he made reservations for us to take a dinner cruise on the Savannah River. It was a neat little boat experience! It had excellent food and gave a spectacular view of the city and river.





TRIP TO JEKYLL ISLAND-- He took a pass for Monday so we decided to head down to Jekyll Island for the day! We enjoyed relaxing on the beach. It was very peaceful and there were only a few other people on the beach near us. One time while in the water, I told him I thought I saw something behind him... And sure enough as we were leaving someone in the water yelled- SHARK! We all spotted a shark in the water about 10 yards from the coast. I'm glad he wasn't hungry! Our day ended with swinging by Crystal (his favorite fast food!) to pick up hamburgers. It was a beautiful day with perfect weather.



EATING CAKE-- We ate the rest of our wedding cake later that evening. We didn't realize it was red velvet until we opened it and it sure was delicious!! Can you tell he got a little too much sun at the beach in these pictures?! He said he was hungry and could have eaten the entire cake...
