Our First Year of Marriage

Let's take a quicksy look back!

The first day we met (in person) we knew there was no way we could be without each other. It would be a tough long distance relationship from California to Japan but it was worth it!

When Daniel moved from Japan to Arizona it wasn't easy at first. He took long 3 hour drives just to visit me almost every weekend before I could move in with him. That drive is harsh but we were just happy we weren't a whole ocean apart anymore!

We never wanted to be apart ever again so we got married! Here's us happy goobs at our wedding shower.

Good things come to those who wait! I finally graduated school and moved into our little apartment. This is our first place to call OUR home.

Our first pet! A ferret we named Sosuke. We only had him for a short period of time because a month after we got married I found out I was pregnant and wanted nothing to do with the furry fella. Don't ask what happened to him... R.I.P. Sosuke the Ferret.

Oops.

Aaah here's a picture from the day Daniel bought that STUPID floppy hat.

He even goes swimming with the hat. Damn that hat. Anyway...

Here's to the good times!

And the bad times too. Boy that day was miserable. This is what our feet looked like after walking in the hot Yuma heat for what felt like days but was only a couple of hours.


Embarrassing drunken nights!
:)

Why Daniel wanted to document my first pap smear is beyond me but here I am getting ready for it...
Oh Hastings. Probably the only good thing about Yuma. Almost every day is a movie night.
Or a game night. Obviously Daniel won... and picked my name.

Here's us at Disneyland.


Getting in some daddy practice before our own lil' munchkin arrives.

Florida trip!

We listened to this whole audio book. It's pretty informative actually.

There's nothing to do here where we live so if we want to do anything fun it's a long drive away.

She's finally here!

Her first bath we gave her together. Team work!

Such an amazing daddy.

And finally our trip to the zoo just last weekend. Look how far we've come! I can't wait for more fun times to come! I love our little family.
The End.
