Happy Anniversary!!!

Wow I'm having a little trouble with this! There is so much to say! So it's been one year since Aaron and I have been married! It seems like it just happened yesterday but at the same time it seems like it has been forever! They say the first year is the hardest. Well I don't know who "they" are but "they" are right! You learn so much during this time. You learn how to live with each other, learn that is's not all just about yourself, find out each others' habits (good and bad), and basically grow up together. I can honestly say that it has been very hard but I wouldn't change it for the world! I know there are going to be many more rough times to come but we will get through them. It's been exciting, scary and the most wonderful time of my life. I don't know what I would have done without those late night calls to Christina! I save the day calls for mom and mom Kimmel! But what is even better, are all the good times to come. We have so much ahead of us, I can't wait!

Aaron and I spent New Years in Florida and had to leave the day before our anniversary so we decided to combine it all and celebrate both! Aaron picked out the condo and it was so nice! We met so many wonderful people, almost all were retired from the Air Force and had moved to Florida! We heard many interesting stories. We were at the nice outdoor mall and Aaron was giving blood (I know) so I sat out on one of the benches to wait. The man next to me starting talking to me and told me that he was retired from the Air Force and went on to tell me about all the places he lived: Japan, Korea, Italy, Germany, Hawaii. He loved it and so did his family. They got to see so many places and things that most would never have the opportunity to do. He told me it would be rough but to hang in there and support Aaron, because his job is not always easy. Stick it out twenty years and it will all be worth it! And that's what the plan is now anyway. The rest of our trip we spent a lot of time out on the beach. And in the heated pool! And we met another retired guy who talked to us about selling one of his condos to us! Hopefully next year we can do it! We got to hang out at almost all our favorite spots including McGuires and the Crab Trap! I can wait to go back! It was a wonderful trip!
