She's not ready to spill all her secrets about her relationship with Eddie Cibrian in a book, but LeAnn Rimes is happy to dish about the couples' first anniversary via Twitter.

Reflecting back on their April 22, 2011 nuptials, the country singer gushed to her followers: "A year ago this weekend was [so] perfect."

Rimes got emotional even before the duo started celebrating the happy occasion. "OMG crying at anniversary cards, someone slap me!" she tweeted Thursday. And it seemed she couldn't wait to kick off the festivities.

"I gave Eddie his anniversary gift early," Rimes, 29, tweeted the next day. "I can never wait! He was so cute. He loved it so much, he wore it to bed. For you dirty minds, it was a watch. :) I just thought that was super cute. All boys, no matter what age love their toys a lot."
