I started this blog when I was planning our wedding. Last weekend we celebrated our one year anniversary. At an art show. In Richmond. Where it was 98 degrees. While I was a little unhappy with the chilly temps and overcast sky on our wedding day, I had to admit it was a lot better than the heat and humidity this year.
Here we are posing in our booth on the morning of May 2, 2010 - one year after our lovely wedding.
The traditional gift for a one year anniversary is paper. I made a faux Washington Post cover for Don with the headline ”Virginia Couple Sentenced to 99 to Life,” a nod to the inscriptions on our wedding bands. I also gave him tickets to see Lyle Lovett who wrote the song “She’s No Lady She’s Your Wife” which was the original source of the inscriptions.
Don gave me the beautiful Tina Palmer oil on plaster on canvas painting below. I love it. A lot.
Also, back in April I finally ordered our wedding album. We used a photo book website, Blurb.com, and I am very pleased with the product.
