The Newlywed Game

Well,
I guess I am starting a blog. I think that is just the thing to do once you get married! Plus we are living in Virginia so this is a good update everyone at home.
I named this post "The Newlywed Game", cause that's what we feel like it is, a game. Learning and growing with each other is awesome, we love every minute of it. We'd have to agree that one of the best parts of being married is not having to drive home at night. We both got real sick of driving to and from the Valley and North Ogden every day. Nick is just amazing and had the best idea ever of how to ask me to marry him, but that is a long story. Maybe for another blog post.

Anyways, long story made short, our wedding was amazing. We had our reception first, and we loved it that was. Our reception was Friday night, then our wedding was Saturday morning. It made it so much less stressful. To me, driving to salt lake early, then to a luncheon, then to the reception is just way to long of a day for me, and for everyone else in the wedding party. So it worked out nicely. Our reception was beautiful, our wedding day was even more beautiful. It was the perfect sunny day outside, and the sealing in the temple was amazing. The perfect beginning to our eternity together. We then had our luncheon and then hopped on a plane for California for then night. The cruise ship was awaiting us the next morning. The honeymoon was a week of heaven, I never wanted it to end.

I do miss my bros...

and our families

bridesmaids. Did I mention my best friend Kassie came out for my wedding? It was great. Loved having her there.

Now we are in Virginia on our first adventure together. We have only been here for a week so far, but it has seemed much longer than that, for me at least. Probably because I went from going from working full-time for the past 9 months, and planning a wedding, to nothing. I guess I should probably enjoy it though while I have it.
I actually just started nannying for a little girl for a few hours a week, just till I find something more permanent. She is the cutest little girl, 4 months old, and easy to take care of.
Other than that Nick works every night from 1-9ish. He is doing good so far, and will only get better at selling as time goes on. I have been hanging out with Mckell and the kids while Nick is at work. They are life savers. I would be going crazy with boredom without them.
