1 year

our first anniversary...we hope to take a weekend away sometime soon, but our lives are a bit too hectic now. we went out to a lovely dinner, though not the dinner we planned. unbeknownst to us, it was oktoberfest in camarillo, and the restaurant, california grill, which i have been longing to eat at for a year, was only serving german food. damn germans!!!

i got:

from jake,

and he got:

(note: not jake's actual truck, but the same model/color) from both of us!

anyway, i can't believe it's been a whole year! we had a lot of changes--2 new jobs, a new car, a new puppy, a trip to europe, a garage makeover, our first joint family holiday celebration, 2 new eyes (for me)...we've learned a lot and look forward to more travels and new hobbies--biking, which the truck will help us to do--and even more home makeovers!
