This is a major milestone for all newlyweds, because it is first year of so many adjustments and changes. I have to say that we made it through the year with a solid A+. Seriously people I don't lie.
In our first year we:
- Got married
- Moved into our first place together
- Successfully survived our first big purchase ( his ginormous tv)
- Found out we were pregnant
- Mr. G got his first D1 football coaching job
- Mr. G's new job having us move across the country (California to North Carolina) *I was 3 months pregnant
- 3 months pregnant sleeping on an air mattress together for 2 weeks! All because our moving truck was late
- 4 flat tires
- A car accident 29 weeks pregnant *Mr. G was driving (it wasn't his fault)
- Mr. G's football staff getting fired.
- Me being 39 weeks and 3 days pregnant.
Here are some eye stimulation for those who enjoy it :) Before and After our one year!

Because of our job uncertainty we decided to forgo anniversary gifts and keep it sweet and simple ( a night of dinner and a movie) We both promised each other when the time is right we will celebrate big and lavishly for the years we need to remain modest. BUT Mr. G had a different plan and decided to buy me a gift that I had my eye on.
Yup that is right, it is a diaper bag. A lot has changed in a year hasn't it?
If you would have asked me a few years ago if I would be happy to get a diaper bag as a gift for my one year anniversary, I would tell you I think you lost your mind. But in all honesty, I couldn't be happier!!
Anyways, Happy Anniversary and CHEERS to many many more!!!
great post! we are so excited for you that I am stalking your site waiting for you to go into labor! I think it is going to be tonight! I'm going to place a $1.00 bet on it with Cos!
