One Year of Marriage Down...forever to go!

By Stacey -
Jake and I have officially have been married a year! It's been so fun these past few days looking back to where we were a year ago. I was thinking it was so crazy of me to work on thursday, flight out to utah that night and get married the next day. But, it all worked out so beautifully and it was the most amazing day!

It's been such a happy year with Jake.  I'm so glad I made him fall in love with me! haha. We have had so many good firsts... our first place together, our first puppy, our first vacation together, our first cheerleading team (haha) and now our first anniversary. 

We have learned lots, like.... its best to solve all arguments using Google (I'm usually right... poor jake). It is physically impossible for me to keep my clothes off the floor. GPS doesn't prevent Jake from getting lost. No one should ask me questions when I nap! A one bedroom apartment isn't big enough for a NY girl. You should always lock your car at night! Cuddling never gets old! Its ok not to have lots of friends around when you have a spouse that is your best friend!

For our anniversary, We spent a night at the inner harbor in Baltimore. I sent Jake on a mission to find me, and he met me that the hotel. It was really nice to be away even if it was just one night! We walked by the Harbor, and went to a fancy restaurant for dinner! Flemmings!We never treat ourselves, so it was really special to be at such a nice place. Jake counted how many times the waiter made reference to this evening! "Can I get you a drink this night?" "How is your food this evening?" The hostess even brought me a black napkin so it would match my dress! I was like, "the white one is fine!"  But... it was a really special night! Tonight we are going to watch all our home videos back from when we were dating to now, and then eat the "fresh" cake we bought, instead of the fermented smelling one my mom brought down from our wedding reception! haha.

I feel really lucky to be in a marriage with someone like Jake. With him, I know we can make it through anything!

I want you to know how much I admire you. I know that time is short for you and your family to be together and there are lots of things to do. But somehow I feel that you are one of the lucky ones. In these next few weeks, you will love Jeron more than you ever have and you will cherish all your moments together as a family as most of us civilians never do. You are strong. You come from strong stock. Me, my mom, her mom, grandma hett, aunt julie, stacey, kristie. When you were Charly's age, you always loved to be in the wind and rain. I would carry you and try to shield you from the bad weather, but you always poked your little face, loving the rain and wind beating on it. I still have that image of that baby girl as I look as you now. You have challenges and trials and yet are so willing and ready to face them head on. Love each second with your husband! He is a good man. Know that the Lord is mindful of you and keep a record of his many blessings to you and Jeron. You...

A Challenge

By Stacey -
So Jake and I have been watching a lot of tv and decided to take pick at least one day of the week and not turn on the TV at all. We challenge you guys to do the same. We are going to do Mon ( our fam home evening day). So, we challenge you guys to do the same...no TV, no movies, and no excessive internet surfing for one day a week. Go for a walk, a hike, start reading a book together, clean, make dinner together, do random service for people you don't know, go to bed early! Let me know how it all goes!

hi Ya'll (thats what everyone says here in TX) Jeron and I have made great friends with Vanessa And Eder..... (jeron works with him) They are really down to earth and are SO good with charly. They are our age and both mexican.....(jeron fits right in with them... lol kidding) Last night the 4 1/2 of us went to a carnival.... we all took turns riding the rides and watching charly.... then we all stuffed our faces with corn on the cob, cotton candy (which charly loved), and caramel apples YUMM. we watched all the animals in the petting zoo, got fake tattoos (some things never get old) and just sat and talked. It was so fun. It just made me feel so good.....Just in the sense of me and jeron and charly being our own little family in Texas..... 100's of miles from where we were raised..........being on our own... not depending on anyone anymore.... and being so happy together. I feel like we have come so far from where we were 2 years ago... when I didn't eve...
