Dear Darrick…
Ever since the calendar changed to May I have been all jittery in the inside, having those same feelings leading up to this day like we are getting married again! But we aren’t, we are celebrating 1 year of being married. This year FLEW by…and with so much going on with our family I hope you can say (like me) that it was still the best year ever and you look forward to many more…
Through all the ups and downs with our daughter, you have been my rock! Holding my hand and wiping away my tears when I’m sure if your tear ducts worked (inside joke) you would’ve been crying too! Those times when you walked through the hospital not saying anything just holding my hand…or coming back to her hospital room with four packs of chuckles two for me and two for you…and we trade colors! Those times make me LOVE you all the more…even in stressful times your goal is to still put a smile on my face!
Those times when we sit and laugh in the dark at the crazy stuff you say! Or how we sit on our tablets at night, and dont get anything done because we are so busy talking about our day and I update you on all the celebrity gossip! LOL! Those times remind me that I truly married my BESTFRIEND!
Those times on Sunday afternoons in the Fall how you make sure Emma and I have Cleveland Browns gear to wear. We must all have on all Orange and Brown together! LOL! You are so serious about your Brownies!!! But you make sure we are still a unit even during football season!
I cant wait to sit and look at the wedding dvd again…and YES at some point we will watch it together again! LOL! I wouldnt have wanted to share these experiences with anyone but you…I love you with all my heart!!!
Here is to MANY MANY MANY more years of marriage!
I Love You!
SUNDAY SOCIAL!!!
Best Summer memory as a kid?
My favorite summertime memory was spending one/two weeks in Huntsville, Alabama with our cousins. Then they would come back to Cleveland with us. Our parents would meet at the halfway point which was across the street from University of Louisville! We would spend a couple of weeks together then we would meet up at our church convention in August before school started. So basically we spent majority of the summer together!

Its an ongoing joke with us now to drop everything going on and meet up in Louisville!

The Housewives of New Jersey is my favorite cast…so I cant wait to watch this summer!!
Best outdoor summer activity?
In Cleveland and Akron there are always festivals going on…from food festivals, arts festivals, concerts in the park (I LOVE them all)!!! I love to be outside walking around, or listening to music…basically just enjoying the city! I love fireworks during the festivals, baseball games…and I love sitting outside in downtown Cleveland having drinks!
