Anniversaries!

Happy Anniversary to us!! We celebrated 4 years on the 25th! We had a lovely evening at home...after work, we made dinner together and really celebrated the fact that we had shared four years of marriage together. Then we did no other than watch the season premier of Grey's!! :) I also "celebrated" my 2 year post-op mark. Two years ago on the 20th, I was in a heck of a lot of pain in a strange hospital room in New York City, in and out of consciousness only getting to see Jay and my parents for about 5 minutes twice a day while I was in ICU. I was so scared and in so much pain but once I was moved to my room, every time I opened my eyes, I saw my precious husbands smiling face right over mine and felt my mommas warm hand on mine and my daddys big hands on my feet and saw my sweet mother in law at the end of my bed. At the time I wasnt sure what the outcome was going to be. We were all so hopeful that that was going to be it and after the scars had healed, the pain would be gone but I always knew that no matter what the outcome was, God had His hand in this. I still believe that His hand is in this and although my scar may be healed, my healing is FAR from over!! :)

But back to being married. In my last post, I mentioned that we were going to see a counselor to take the Myers Briggs tests, so I'll fill ya in on that. I can't even tell you how excited I am about the timing of it! Jay took his Personality test and we both took what is called the Enrich evaluation, which is for couples who have been married for a while, that lets you know your strengths and weaknesses. Our counselor will send them off, and in a couple of weeks when she gets them back, we will meet again and over 2, two hour sessions we will go over the results. It will basically see how we can better serve eachother in our marriage. We feel so blessed that we are able to do this NOW, long before there is a "need" for counseling because of a problem and we're also pretty proud of ourselves for taking the initiative to go ahead and do this! I'll keep ya filled in along the way.

Tomorrow evening Amy B. and I are going to a plastic surgeons office for a little PR. Dr. Cole is having an open house with all the reps from Botox, Juvaderm, Restalin, etc there to answer questions and actually do some "work" and we will be there representing Amy Head answering questions and showing makeup techniques. It should be fun!

MOST exciting though is that my SEESTER AND NEPHEWS ARE COMING!!!!!!!!! Sooooo spur of the moment, she decided to drive all the way from Ft Myers!! I am going to ride back with them in a couple of weeks and then fly back a few days later. I am soooo excited to see them!!! PLEASE be praying for their safety tomorrow and Wednesday as they are driving and also for her hands...she has sjograns disease which causes terrible pain in her hands (arthritis) when she drives for long periods of time!

I got Jays Bday present. I'm keeping it at my parents house because it's so big. He's going to be so surprised. It makes me laugh to think about it because it's such a grandpa gift. I'll have to post pics when I give it to him, he'll be so excited though. haha. What can I say, I aim to please :)

I think I'm caught up for now. Hope everyones had a great September!!
