1 year Anniversary!

 HAPPY 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY CONNOR!!!!

Connor and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary June 26, 2011.  I can't believe it's already been a year! It FLEW by!  Before I got married I had always heard people say the first year is the hardest year of marriage.  I wondered what it was that was going to make the first year the hardest.  Was it the silly things that your spouse did that maybe you didn't know about? Or was it deciding who was going to cook everday and who was going to work on the car or pay the bills?  Maybe its a collection of all those things.   But goodness gracious! I couldn't have had a more fun year in my entire life!! My family has asked me if there were any surprises that Connor does.  I tell them that there hasn't been any thing surprising, just that he really is THAT patient ALL the time! He's more wonderful every day.  When they ask Connor if there was any surprises he smirks and says, "well I knew Janiece was dramatic, but I didn't know she could carry it on ALL THE TIME!"  Ha ha ha! Alright I AM dramatic! I get very enthusistic about things that I love!  But he'll tell ya that he loves it. :)) He really is the best. 

Connor and I were talking about some of our favorite memories of the year and we were just laughing and laughing.  We've had so many good times and most of our favorite times were when we were just at home being silly together.  

I am so lucky and blessed to have Connor in my life.  He is my very BEST friend and I couldn't ask for anyone better.  Everyday he is sweeter and sweeter.  Not to mention he gets cuter and cuter :) I am the luckiest girl in the world!!

I love you Connor! Happy Anniversary!   

A couple days before our anniversary I had gone home to spend some time with Jenica before she went to Alaska for the summer. And while I was there, there was a lot of sewing going on.  Tyleen sewed a quilt, my mom made Tyleen a dress.  So, I wanted to join the fun and I needed something to give to Connor for our anniversary coming up.  So, I decided to make us cool pillow cases!!! My mom makes these for us for Christmas and I LOVE them!!! I love the idea of having different, bright, fun pillow cases that are completely your own.

I gave Connor the pillow cases and even though they're pretty girly looking he did a good job at acting as excited as I was about them.  I had gotten back from Idaho Friday night and I couldn't wait until Sunday to give them to him so I gave them to him that night!   Connor was better than me and waited to surprise me with a gift on Sunday!! He had folded up a little piece of paper that said "couple massage".  When I first read it I was thinking that we were going to give them to eachother that night or something. But then he quickly informed me that it was for a REAL couples massage!!!!! When I came to that realization I almost started crying!  If anyone has talked to me within the last couple months they would know how badly I wanted to go and get a professional massage!!! The appointment was for a couple days later, and the night before we went I could hardly sleep, I was so excited! :)  And it felt more amazing than I thought it was going to!  I got that picture off of their website.  It had two beds in that same room where Connor and I got them done together. Best hour of my life!   It felt so amazing!! Thank you Connor for being so sweet and giving me such a special present!
