I still can't believe it's been a whole year since Geoff & I got married in Salt Lake, but at the same time I have a hard time remembering what life was like before I was Mrs. Brown. I do know this, life is a million times better than I ever knew it could be! Well, we celebrated by going to park city all weekend. It was a blast. We stayed at the Carriage House Condiminiums, which is a pretty sweet place to stay. I tooks like six bubble baths (we don't have a tub @ home and taking baths is one of my FAVORITE things to do, so I had to stock up). We did LOTS of shopping, spent too much money, and just enjoyed being together 24/7. We both got each other new watches as gifts to each other. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my new watch. Geoff's is super nice too. It rained a bit on sunday night & monday morning so our Monday morning hike got canceled but thats okay because we went out to breakfast in salt lake & as we were sitting there, I looked over at the door & PRESIDENT MONSON walked in with his wife. I started to freak out. Being from Texas, this is NOT an everyday occurance for a prophet to be in my midst. So I told Geoff that I had to go talk to him. So i walked to over to him, Geoff following, and very timidly said "um, sorry to bother you President Monson, but can I shake your hand?"... and he said with a smile "Oh, you're not bothing me" and shook my hand... then he looked over and Geoff (who was wearing a Utah State hoodie & said something like "Oh, Utah State huh?"... and we explained thats where we go to school & then he said how lovely Logan is. Then a mob of people came and lined up to talk to him as well, so I decided to let them have a turn. I wanted to sit there & talk to him for a long time... but I decided his bodyguards were watching somewhere & they might think I was some kind of freak. But man, can I tell you that was by far the biggest highlight of our trip? It's interesting seeing him at a normal little dinky restaurant & yet it's still the same feeling I have when I see him on the tv screen during conference. Can't deny he is the prophet of God. What a great anniversary we had. I feel like the luckiest woman alive. Geoff is by far the sweetest (& sexiest!) man alive... and treats me like a queen. Two days before our anniversary I had a panic attack about clutter in our house. (which is funny because it wasn't all that much, but I am just a neat freak to the extreme)... well while I was at work, Geoff went through each room and organized it, cleaned it, and made it PERFECT... wrote me the sweetest letter and got me a beautiful boquet of roses. I loved it. Made me so grateful for August 31st, 2007, the day I married my best friend for forever. Marrying him was the greatest decision I have ever made. Here's to the first year and many more to come!!
Isn't Geoff the CUTEST?!?
Our new watches!
Story behind this picture is I am quitting diet Coke. The rule is I can have it when eating out. I am drinking the goodness of Diet Coke after a week of not having it... It was such joy to be reunited with my beloved drink!!
