Our First Anniversary...

One year has gone by already....wow! We spent the weekend together reminiscing about our wedding day, and the many things that this past year has brought. Kyle surprised me and took me to The St. Paul Hotel on Saturday night. When we arrived in our room there was another surprise awaiting me.....sparkling cider and chocolate covered strawberries! We walked around St. Paul, and tried to find a Caribou, but no luck! We of COURSE had to stop at the XCel Center and see Herb Brooks.....Herb was excited that we made it through our first year too! :)
After walking through downtown for a while we headed back to the hotel to get ready for dinner. Kyle had gotten us reservations at The St. Paul Grill where we shared a delicious meal, followed by cards and presents we had gotten for one another. We also enjoyed the CABLE in our hotel room and were able to watch part of the Wild game and "John and Kate + 8" :) Sunday morning we ate breakfast at the M St. Cafe--the BEST french toast I have ever had! When we got home we watched our wedding video and looked through our pictures.
It was such a great weekend!!! Life tends to get so busy and we truly enjoyed reflecting on the past year, praying for the year ahead, and just being together. We feel so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends that supported us not only on our wedding day, but also through our first year.
