Can't believe it's been a Year!

On June 11th, Ben and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary. I can't believe it's been a year. Time really flew by, and we've packed so much into that year! I never would have guessed when we took our vows that we'd be celebrating our first year living in Louisiana, but here we are!

We actually spent our anniversary in Dallas. We originally had a trip to Branson planned, but had to scrap it at the last minute because of Ben's work schedule. We ended up having a fabulous dinner at "III Forks". It's the largest steak house in the country, and the food is amazing. Ben especially enjoyed the Cigar Room! The next day we did some shopping, which is always fun in Dallas, then headed back to Shreveport.

Right now we're working on a few BIG projects. We just put an offer in on a beautiful home and should hear by the end of the day tomorrow whether or not we got it. We're both very anxious to get out of the loft! Downtown living has been fun, but we've had our fill and are ready to get back into a place of our own.

On Sunday I leave for Mobile, Alabama. Next week I'll be judging America's Junior Miss. It's such an honor, and I can't wait to go through the AJM experience again. Hard to believe it's been 12 years since I was Ohio's Junior Miss! I had a wonderful time competing in Mobile, so it should be fun to be on the other side this time
