Our First Year of Marriage!

Durbin & I can't believe it's already been a year! We've had the most wonderful time just trying to get used to being married....it's actually fun! Although we haven't even picked out our pictures for the album yet, we have some from our friends to just remember our special day. We wanted to thank my parents for the most amazing wedding....and stressfree! We couldn't have asked for more. Oh, as many of you know, our wedding was in The Ladue News a while back. Well, as of tomorrow, it will be in Season's Magazine. You can always log onto www.seasonsmagazine.com and click on "in this issue" at the top. Then click on "26 St. Louis Weddings" on the left hand side. To make it easier, you can always just scroll to page 45!
Thanks again Mom & Dad....we love you!

DIAMONDS for our 1 year!

I was totally surprised when Durbin gave me more diamonds for our 1 year anniversary. I thought Vegas was going to be so wonderful and before we left he gave me the most beautiful 3 diamond necklace to wear while we were there. There's not much more of me left to cover:) He's covered by ears, neck, wrist, and hands! It's hard to see but it's three 1 ct diamonds standing for the past, future, and present! Thank you Durbin!




VEGAS Anniversary Weekend

For our 1 year anniversary, I surprised Durbin with a weekend in Vegas at the Bellagio. This is part one of our celebration since next month we're going to Antigua for 2 weeks to continue the celebration! Well, Vegas was amazing! We had an absolute blast. Although we spent most of our time gamling, we did find some time to visit Old Vegas down on Freemont street as well as The Little White Wedding Chapel to attempt to renew our vows:) Elvis was sleeping at 4am so we didn't get to see him:) We had such a great time meeting everyone from Canada to North Carolina to LA! It's definitely a great thing to leave Vegas a winner! We only took about 50 pictures, but here's a few of our favorites! Happy Anniversary Durbin!

1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY....VEGAS THAN ANTIGUA

We can't believe we've been married for almost a year! Time has flown by so quickly! Although we're going to Antigua for two weeks next month, I wanted to surprise Durbin with a little quick getaway on our actual anniversary weekend! So....I thought the Bellagio in Vegas would be a nice last minute trip. We're leaving next friday and will hopefully return with lots of money:) We're hoping for great luck and a nice stroll through that Elvis Wedding Chapel. There's nothing better than renewing your wedding vows in a Vegas Chapel, right?
It should all be quite entertaining!

Dr. Durbin....Stayin' in St. Louis

Well, Durbin and I would just like to thank all of our friends and family for their continued support through the waiting period for Durbin's Residency!!! We are so happy to say that we will be STAYING in St. Louis!!
As a 2nd part of our 1 year and a "last vacation" for a while we are headed to Anitgua for 2 weeks coming up in May. It should be a blast!
So, before we have to grow up, he's to one last "adventure!!":)
