This past weekend James and I celebrated the one year mark in our relationship! I got some beautiful flowers and we went and bought a new TV! We are sharing that till I get my tattoo and/or my cd player for my car! I know I'm spoiled!!
The bad thing was he was out of town helping a friend! I couldn't say no seeing as how the week before this same friend help us with no notice!! But it was a nice weekend all in all! Spent lots of needed time with Kaida, cleaned the house and got us situated at the apartment!
It was our first night apart since we have been together. He left Saturday and came home Sunday night. Although we missed each other like crazy it was a great feeling to miss him so much and know that after a year of seeing each other everyday I still want him there with me!! When I saw him walk through the door last night he's lucky I didn't knock him over with my hugs and kisses!! I know, I know! Not what anyone but us cares about!! LOL! But it was a wonderful feeling to have him home with me again!
I did have time to think alot this weekend about how this year has been for us.
It started slow! After our first date my uncle passed away so I really didn't talk to him for about a month. I needed time to heal. The day I got home from my families I went to Kernville with him for a wedding and we have been dating ever since! We started spending everyday together from that week on! By October we got our apartment together and started to settle into our lives! Then 8 months later we found out all the problems with our apartment were unlivable and had to move with no notice, landing us in his parents house. For the last 6 months we have been looking for a home to buy! We had an offer in (about 4 months waiting by the time we moved in to his parents house) so we didn't want to get another place with a lease and have to pay all that money for a few months. We thought we would all be able to handle living together and slowly found out it was a bad idea. After two months we are now living with Nikki ( my best friend of 5 years).
Talk about a crazy year! In the past I know that I would have high taled it out of the relationship and never looked back. It's because of the past year that I know James and I will spend the rest of our lives together. We have learned to be very honest with each other, to respect each other, to always show our love for one another, to try new things together, and about a million other things that help make our relationship priceless!! I love him with all my heart and soul!! I never saw myself actually getting married until we started talking about marrige!! When we got engaged I knew then like I know now he is the only man in the world that I would ever want to have put up with me!!! :)
He is my everything, my best friend, my soulmate! He gives me courage, strength, will power! He has been my teacher, my student, my adventure buddy! You name it and that is what he is to me!!
James, I love you with my whole heart. You mean the world to me and I can't wait to look back each year and see how much we grow together!!
