our 1st anniversary

Was a great great day!! We slept in, cleaned the house (haha don't worry it gets better than that), exchanged gifts, and went to brunch at Blue Ridge Grill! I would assume anyone reading this knows me, but if not...I am super cheesy, love all the traditional stuff, and am pretty darn creative!!

Traditional Gift 1st Anniversary - PAPER....
How about a card for every week of the next year, yup that's right 52 cards all in one jar to be opened every Sunday until November 6th, 2011. I love you because....

Eric went with the paper theme as well, it's almost as if he knows me, tickets to LION KING on broadway!!!! I am sooooooooooooo excited!!!

We had a driver pick us up at 1:00 for a day of vineyarding and dinner, having a driver is the coolest thing, sooooo VIP!!

Hillsborough Vineyards

Dinner: Tuscarora Mill in Leesburg- a 1st for each of us and it was FANTASTIC!!!!

And then we returned home!!! I told you I was Cheesy :) Although I should have traded out my teal flowers for purple!!!
