And now, at the end of our newliwededness, I find myself in awe of our first year as man and wife. I am 8 months pregnant! We live in a beautiful apartment in Pompano of all places. I finally got the bedroom furniture I'd been talking about for our entire year and a half of engagement. We are both gainfully employed, we live on a budget but are finally NOT broke, we have a lot of fun just sitting in our apartment going back and forth and he still manages to make me laugh, feel beautiful, smart and appreciated each and every day. It is not your traditional fairytale but definitely my fairy tale.
This weekend, we spent a night at the Hyatt Bonaventure Resort & Spa....a last hurrah if you will, a weekend "away" for just the two of us before we begin the awesome stage ahead. We slept in a kind size bed with no less than 20 pillows (yes, I know it is hard to believe but Mike and I don't have a king bed! despite our obvious mass). We ate out the whole weekend, spent hours lounging by the pool and yes, I had pancakes! My husband also treated me to a much needed foot treatment at the Red Door Spa at the hotel, my first spa experience and unfortunately for him, I think I'm addicted. We came back home and topped off the day with a shopping spree for baby! I could have bought out the store, it was all just so cute. Mike didn't give me the chance, he pulled the cart into the check-out and started scanning items before I could scoop everything up. Probably for the best as despite his best efforts, our tab was definitely higher than expected.
Today, as I reflect on the year we had, I am grateful. I am happy. And I am optimistic about our future. I know this is the first year of many.
