1 Year Anniversary

I can't believe that it has been a year since we tied the knot in Savannah, GA on April 29th.

It was one of the most amazing years, and I am looking forward to many more. Love you Todd!

Savannah Adventures: Part III

That evening, Daniil, mom and I toured downtown Savannah. We ended up going down to River Street. We walked along the river, listened to Daniil's remarkable comments, and window shopped which was great because we avoided many broken items {Daniil is a 4 year old}.

The next morning, we met with Todd's family at B. Matthew's which is a wonderful place for a breakfast and brunch. Daniil said that he was not hungry but five minutes did not go by, and he was demanding a waffle "with a LOT of syrup" he emphasized! Not to mention that he had his first waffle about an hour ago. 

So to summarize our vacation, it was wonderful! 

Good times :)

Savannah Adventures: Part II

As we were getting deeper into the park, we saw tons of people mostly teenage girls. I was curious what was going on since the big festival was suppose to take place next weekend, St. Patrick's Day. After I saw the banner that said "Girl Scouts celebrated 100 years!", it was obvious to me why at the hotel during our breakfast we were accompanied by hundreds of Girl Scouts.

Meeting my husband's family was great as always. Daniil got to play with Hill, Todd's newphew, as we set in the shade chatting, people watching, and enjoying the concert happening near by.

Unfortunately, all the pictures I took at the playground turned out blurry. Why do you ask? The answer is Daniil loves to run around. Even when he was little, he enjoyed hiking/running with me and he was not so interested in a playground.

The time flew by. "Well, it's time to head back to the hotel" I said. Daniil was exceptionally fine with that. I think walking, running, and playing did it for him.

On our way back, Daniil once again played on every bench. This time he was really selective about his benches. He decided to exclude me from the bench scouting process. That did not upset me because I got to window shop and take pictures of beautiful architecture and trees covered in moss.

After meandering through the charming streets of Savannah and hearing over and over "THIS IS SOOO AMAZING!", "Are we in Savannah?", "Savannah is AWESOOOME" from Daniil, we finally made it to our hotel room. 

What happened later that evening is another story! Savannah Adventures part 3 will complete the sequel shortly.

Have you had any adventures lately? I would love to hear :)

Savannah Adventures: Part I

The day began at 6:30. Daniil was up and ready to go. "I am hungry, I want a waffle and a lot of syrup, I want to go to a playground, I want to see Savannah!" he kept saying over and over. This was my first time traveling with him by myself {we came with my mom but she was working all day}. After a hearty breakfast and careful packing of my tote bag with all the necessities for a long day, we were finally outside. The weather was gorgeous. We only walked for a couple of minutes when Daniil saw a store vitrine full of cars. A few minutes later, he was a happy owner of a red fire dept. car. During our more than 1 mile walk, his new car touched every bench that we passed by. While he was busy playing, I was taking photos left and right. I don't think I can ever get enough of Savannah's historic architecture!

We were having so much fun that the time and distance did not matter, and luckily we had plenty of time to get to Forsyth park for Daniil's play date with his cousin. I was really excited to see my husband's family. 

To be continued ...

I hope everyone is enjoying this spring weather!
