“A year ago today, you and I were on our way back from our first visit to your family’s,” I told my husband this morning at breakfast. That’s the kind of comments he’s had to live with for the entire last month! 
And though he teases me, I can tell he likes the fact that I’ve not forgotten. What a year it’s been!!
For the anniversary of our engagement, Jarod and I spent the day at Stone Mountain. After a slow hike up, and a light picnic lunch at the top, Jarod, who was resting in the shade of a pine, asked me to guess what surprise he might have for me. I’m such a dim whit… He was wearing the same pair of cargo pants as last year and sure enough, had another surprise for me hidden in one of the multiple pockets (though this time I was even more surprised, as I was hoping for a certain ring anyday last year and not expecting anything this year).
Isn’t it beautiful? (The bottom one is still my favorite, though.) 
The spot where Jarod asked me to marry him! And the small tree under which we ate this year and he gave me the emerald ring.
