And So It Begins...

Steven left for his first rotation today. And guess what? I already hate it. I've pretty much been dreading this day since before we got married. He'll basically be gone all summer, so for me today is just the start of a horribly long summer. Although I'm sad and hate not having him here, I am excited and proud of him for working so hard to get to this point. I've made a goal to stay positive and am trying to remember we're on the downward slope now. I have a list of things to get done and keep me busy while he's gone, so wish me luck! This month he's doing a rotation with the Wyoming Pharmacy Association. He'll be helping get ready for the Pharmacy Convention 2-3 days a week, and working in Powell at the hospital also. The office is based out of Byron, so he'll be in Lovell staying with his parents, getting Mom-cooked meals and laundry service, golfing and playing baseball; and getting to play with the niece and nephews. It's also a good excuse for me to be home almost every weekend :)

We also celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary yesterday! I can't believe how fast time flies! We had a very relaxing and enjoyable day together. We headed down to Fort Collins yesterday morning and went shopping for some new coffee and end tables. (Thanks for the birthday money, Mom & Dad!) We found some we liked and were able to get a great deal on them. We then went and had an hour long couple's massage at a day spa. It was WONDERFUL! Definitely something we both needed and enjoyed. After eating and shopping around a bit, we headed home. There was some assembly required on our new furniture but luckily it was minimal and very simple, so we were able to do it without any frustration or arguing :) To end the evening, we ate the top of our wedding cake and watched our wedding video. Without getting too mushy, I just have to say how lucky I am to have such a wonderful husband. The past year has been amazing and more than I could have ever imagined. Steven, thank you for being the man that you are and making me feel like a princess. I love that we can talk for hours, laugh together, cry together, and get through anything together. I look forward to the rest of eternity with you! I Love You!




I also realize I haven't posted anything since February. We aren't that exciting, but believe it or not a few things have happened since then. I've started a post about it all, but have yet to finish it. It's one of the things on my list to get done, so hopefully soon!
