To celebrate this momentous occasion, we spent the whole day together. The romance started Sunday night. Vegas doesn't get rain a lot but every now and then we get dumped on, especially on this night. Once our backyard started to look like a lake, we decided we should check on our chickens to make sure they were dry and our coop was doing its job. Without an umbrella we ran into the rain and immediately got drenched. After discovering our chickens were dry as a bone and passed out we ran back to the door. Like in a movie, Karsten grabs me, dips me, and gives me that romantic kiss in the rain that I never got and always wanted. It was the perfect reminder that even though we've settled down into everyday life together, there is still magic in our relationship.
This was the aftermath of our clothes. I've never been soaked like this in a Vegas storm!
Our anniversary started with gifts. I'm very impatient; good thing he loves me. My gift to Karsten was a custom made stetson cowboy hat and Karsten gave me the most beautiful rose gold diamond heart necklace.
We spent the afternoon swimming and sun bathing by the pool. It was so relaxing and probably my favorite day since Karsten was able to take off work to just spend time with me.
After a romantic dinner, we concluded our awesome day with a fairly dated tradition.
This is the top of our wedding cake that my mom froze and saved.
We were told on our 1 year anniversary we had to eat it. For the sake of tradition, we had a bite. I'm sort of glad my mom wasn't there to make us eat more than that.
It was an amazing day to end an amazing year! For the rest of my blog, I won't be in a newlywed cloud. I am still wildly in young love with Karsten, but this marks the end of the first year of giggles and glitches. I can't wait for many, many more years with this guy and hitting more landmarks and growth.
