First Anniversary Weekend

This past weekend John and I celebrated our 1-year anniversary. To keep with tradition, we saved the top tier from our wedding cake to eat on our first anniversary. Last Friday night we had both sets of our parents over for a little get-together and to break open the cake.

First John had to take the tape off of the ice cream pail.


Off goes the cover...


"It looks edible..."

Aww...


Cutting the cake!


"Ummmm, cake.....Can't Wait!"


"Oh yeah, it's still good!"


So as you can see, we were successful at keeping the top tier of the cake for an entire year. Thanks mom for packaging the cake up so well and thanks Bertha for the good step-by-step instructions.

On Sunday, which was our anniversary, we slept and took it easy in the morning. In the afternoon we went to a matinee movie at the EP theater and saw I Love you, Man. Then it was off to Red Lobster for a nice dinner.

As a wedding gift to us, our friend Rachel gave us a puzzle. What a great gift! We had fun putting this together to wrap up the weekend. It only took an hour or so to do but all of the white made it a little challenging.
