Today is our one year anniversary and I just cant believe it. We are headed back now from TN where we stayed in a cabin all weekend. Justin had planned a surprise trip for me and it was soooo much fun. It started Friday when we got off work. We both came home a little early and got on the road and I was still unaware of where we were going. Then justin needed me to navigate so I got out the directions and saw that we were going to Pigeon Forge. It was just the type of vacation I wanted. We stopped half way and ate at Sonny’s, of course, we have to stop at them when we see them since we have none. I think he should open one in Cincinnati. Anyway, we got to Pigeon Forge and drove up to our cabin. It was so beautiful, which you can see all the pictures if you click on the Anniversary link. It was just like a little house, but with a hot tub on the back porch just for us, and a jacuzzi in the bedroom, which justin thought was weird, because why not just put it in the bathroom, to which I replied, you can’t watch Sportscenter in the tub if its in the bathroom. he liked that. we also had our own little old school pac man game in the living room. It really was so cool. We spent Friday night in the hot tub or watching the Xgames and a movie we rented and just relaxing in the cabin. Saturday we woke up and drove into gatlinburg and parked and walked around, its just so beautiful. I forgot how touristy this place was. I guess I just think of other places to go when i think of big vacation spots. Well, after we got back to our cabin from gatlinburg, we got ready and went to the Dixie Stampede dinner and show. I had never been to this before but Justin had. It was a really big awesomely good meal with a fun show to watch with livestock and all. If you havnt seen or heard of it before, its just little competitions of the North versus South. Sorta like a civil war thing. It was a good time. We left there and went to the outlet mall and shopped for a little while before going goofy golf, which justin makes fun of me for calling it goofy golf, but thats what its called!!! he beat me, by two strokes, however i was ahead until hole 17 and then blew it. oh well, i cant always beat him in goofy golf. we then walked over to Atlanta bread company and got some yummy food and there was a really good guitar playing man there and i just loved him. he played all my favorite stuff; johnny cash, james taylor, jimmy buffet, he was really good. We went back to the cabin and made a big ole bubble bath in the jacuzzi and watched some tv. I really loved everything about our anniversary trip. Everything was so fun and relaxing and I just loved spending time with Justin outside of our busy lives. I loved sitting on the back porch every morning and eating my cereal in the rocking chair and looking at the mountains and just thinking about how cool God is. This morning I woke up and Justin was right in my face with a big smile and just said, happy anniversary, and i wanted to cry. I love this boy so much and i am so thankful I have him as my best friend forever. i just cant help but think that Im going to turn around and it will be our 50th anniversary, that would be such a blessing to be there with justin in 49 years. It all goes by so fast.
Well we are headed home and are about to stop for yet some more sonny’s bar b que. I knows its not amazing food people, but justin loves it, and when you dont have one, you have to take advantage of the times when you can get it. anyway, we are going to see Taladega Nights tonight to wrap up our Anniversary Extravaganza and i cant wait!!! Well, have a good week everyone.
