Finally, I’m uploading old pictures. My parents gave us a new camera for our anniversary because my old one has a broken screen.
Our one-year anniversary was May 17 and we were home in Rockford. It was also my grandpa’s birthday so we celebrated with family.
That night, Steve picked me up and took me out for dinner at Lino’s–where we had our first date over 6 years ago! We ordered wayyyy too much food (blame it on the baby) and it was soo goood!
Then we came home for our wedding cake that has been in the freezer for a year. No, it wasn’t good, haha. You can clearly see Steve and I both leaning backwards like- “you better not actually put that piece of cake in my mouth!” So the pictures are fakes 🙂
We had plans to do something outdoorsy in Ames for our anniversary, but family things had us in Rockford for the weekend instead. SO… yesterday (Sunday) we went on a canoeing trip down the Des Moines River. It was beautiful outside and we had so much fun!
We even saw two bald eagles–a male and female sitting by their nest! Very cool.
Oooh! Looks like fun! What part of the river were you on?

Umm… we did it through Seven Oaks… so wherever they dropped us off and picked us up 🙂 Haha, I have no idea.

Aww..looks cute and fun 🙂 Our anniversary is Sunday, I’m gonna pretend I’m pregnant too so I can order wayyyy too much food 😉 and then go workout the next day because we all know I’m not really pregnant.
You should name your baby something to signify the importance of your 1yr…Eaglita…or something similar.
