I was getting my make up done and marveling about the incredible luck, not only to have beautiful weather in Pittsburgh in October, not only to be surrounded by so many wonderful and supportive loved ones, but to be partnered in life with such an amazing person. I'm very excited to celebrate one year of marriage today.
Not long ago, Chris and I were featured in the Celebrations section of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette (which spotlit our nuptials from October 2010) and I decided (with some trepidation) that I would share it on this date. We had no idea that we were going to be featured so prominently until we woke up to emails and tweets from friends and family, cluing us in. But it was thrilling to see! As we meet the quiet milestone of one year of spouse-hood we feel both relieved and nostalgic. It's great to relax and enjoy another fall season together. It is great to be able to reminisce about such a fantastic series of memories. And it is great to sit back while we attend our friends' and families' nuptials (we just went to another last Friday!), with thorough empathy and appreciation for the labor of love that is planning a wedding.
