A year already?

It has gone by so quickly. August 1st, 2009 was our big day. One year ago. Now we’re just an old married couple. Who says the first year is the hardest? We’ve loved every minute of it. Now, we’re not naive, but it really has been a good year. God has greatly blessed us with one another.

So, how did we spend it? In style, of course. At least for us. We went up to Brevard, NC and stayed in a Bed & Breakfast: The Red House Inn. Our time included a nice dinner on the town, a great, relaxing evening, and a hike and a milkshake on Monday to wrap up the trip.

I am truly blessed to have Kristen as my wife. The Lord is good. I know this more and more everyday. What I have learned the past year!

I noticed our blog posts are beginning to coincide with major holidays. It seems these are the only times we get to do anything remotely interesting. Okay, so that’s not completely true. But it is about the only time we have to actually write a blog post about what we got to do.

We hung around Greenville for the actual 4th of July. No big plans. We drove downtown and watched the fireworks display from the car. It was pretty impressive. Fireworks, I think, always make you think of childhood. They conjure up countless memories of almost blowing your hand off playing with those things. Oh but how much fun they are.

We drove up to DuPont State Forest, as we both had Monday off work, to do a little hiking. It was a great day for a trip to the mountains. Actually, any day that involves the mountains is a good day. It was nice walking the trails in the coolness of the shade with one another. Talking and holding hands as walked in the quiet. From one waterfall to the next we strolled. Here are a few more of the things we saw: DuPont State Forest

I hope your 4th weekend was filled with as beauty. We’ll try to post before the next major holiday. But if not, be sure to check back on Labor Day!
