525,600 minutes, 525,000 moments so dear. 365 days of laughter. 52 weeks of fun. 12 months of love. 2 nights spent apart. 0 regrets. On December 30, 2009 Nate and I celebrated our FIRST wedding anniversary. In some ways it feels like the time has just flown by, and in others it seems like the years we were apart were so long ago.
For our anniversary we skipped gifts and spent two nights at the Pointe Hilton Tapatio Cliffs resort in North Phoenix, taking advantage of their dining package which gave us $100 in dining certificates to spend during our time there. We ate some delectable food including flat iron steak, creamy sundried tomato and artichoke risotto, warm lava brownie, and a heavenly creme brulee the size of a salad plate topped with fresh berries. After the business and stress of the holidays it was a gift just to get away from everything and spend some time together. Over the next year we will have changes and challenges as I hope to start a new job and Nate will begin his residency. It is often said that the first year of marriage can be the hardest, if this is true then I can only imagine the years of happiness that are before us. As the card on my flowers stated, "one down, 79 more to go."

Has it really been a year already? Wow! It still feels like yesterday when we were decorating your car! :) Congratulations!
Funny...the Tapatio Cliffs is where Ryan and I spent our first two nights after we got married, before we left for our Honeymoon to Disney World :) Good times...
Isn't it so nice to know that the supposed "hardest" year wasn't so hard after all? I was the same way, in thinking that if THIS was hard, then we have nothing but smooth sailing from here! So glad we BOTH ended up with nice guys :) Congrats, Jenny!!
