"So...how's married life?"

I have never been asked a single question so many times in my life. Danny and I usually just look at eachother. Smile. And reply. "It's great- we love it!" And that's the truth.

We've made a lot of fun memories the past three weeks. Like returning our repeat gifts. And using our giftcards to get the leftovers on our registries. We've had our first kitchen fire. (Don't worry mom, everything is okay...And yes, I am going to buy a fire extinguisher for next time.) And three dinner parties. Pratically blown through this month's grocery budget, yet our fridge stays stocked for only a couple days. (Where does all our food go, Husband?) Ordered internet for the house. Got me on his health insurance. Took our students to the beach. Jumped on our bed. The toothpaste has ran out twice as fast. And there is double the hair on the bathroom floor. (Gross.) And our laundry basket gets full really quick. And all the yogurts have disappeared. And I don't really sleep straight through the night anymore.

But at the same time the little house noises don't scare me anymore. And instead of a morning text I get a morning kiss. And he helps me pick out what to wear for the day. And he folds laundry with me. And I make his lunch. And we listen to music when we get ready in the morning. And my feet stay warm when I sleep. And we take one car places instead of two. And the house smells of coffee and breakfast every morning. And our love keeps growing! It's simply wonderful. I hope you know what I mean. Or at least that one day you'll know.

So that is that. Our wedding day, honeymoon, and the past three weeks. Now there are new things to look forward to. Like starting my second year in seminary. And growing new and old friendships. And getting creative with cooking meals. And getting into the swing of things with our youth group. And developing teams of student leaders. And having my fourth niece enter the world. And, and, and!

We're glad you're here to journey with us. :)
