Fun things...

I haven't posted in a week or two and thought that I would add some things that Shawn and I have been able to do in the past couple of weeks. We have had some time to enjoy each others company and I wanted to post some things that we have done and taken some pics of... I love being married and right now I love that things are carefree and we don't have a bajillion things that ties us down to one spot... we can kind of pick up and leave when we want to. Its wonderful. We have gone to a Braves game with our niece and nephew and we went to Stone Mountain to watch the laser show while Shawn was working and it was way fun.




The Braves game we were blessed to get amazing tickets for free and then while walking around a family of four had gotten tuckered out and we were given even better seats behind the dugout about 10 rows back... we had a blast.



We enjoyed going to the game and had so much fun with T and Britney.



This was our location after the family of four gave us their high priced tickets and the kids finally could really see the players which made the game much more interesting for them.



This is one of the pics from going to Stone Mountain Park... If you have ever seen Stomp the Yard there is a seen with the Generals in the Mountain... the date on the pic was wrong and I couldnt figure out how to change it so I promise it was this year.

Anyway we are keeping busy and are going to go to Stone Mountain Park tomorrow with some friends from church and I am definitely taking more pictures soon. We are having fun... and I love my little married life.

I am going to be posting some pics of the changes that we are making at the house... I got a little wallpaper pulling happy and started tearing it down... slowly but surely we will be getting things done... I cant wait for this house to start looking better and fixed up. We try to get it all done one room at a time.

Bum Back

So I was in bed waking up late on Saturday... and all of sudden I had this back spasm, like a charlie horse in the center of my back. Anyway...so Sunday it happened again and I just thought that I was weird... then I woke up on Monday and once again I was having these spasms except they were 600 times worse and more frequent. So I then called out of work to schedule an apointment with the doctor and she said that i cant go back to work until thursday... so its been me at home with no tv that works watching redbox movies on really powerful drugs. really powerful drugs. so if you want to give me call it would be really funny for you. home til thursday

Journal

I know that a blog is like a public journal for everybody. One that everyone can click and meander around and read in order to find out what is going on in your life... I have been an avid journaler since I was oh goodness 10 years old... I dont know where they all are. They might be in a box or in my old room or packed away in Utah in my storage space that I still have there... yes I know it has been almost 2 years since I left... but I know what is in there so it isnt a waste of money... anyway back to journals... I wish that my mom and my grandparents had one or five... I wish I could read their thoughts on married life and what its like to have kids... I have had some serious life changes and even though I have the journals that talk about my dating life in high school and my I hate life days... I started one off for my kids... or my grandkids... I decided that I want them to know what I have learned so far in my measly twenty-three years on this earth. I want them to know how I met Shawn and the feelings and impressions I felt along that path... the most incredible thing about it is that I didnt want to stop writing... I want to tell this story as it happens while it is fresh... I want to go to my Grandmothers and my Grandfathers and find out their stories about love while they all are here... and write down the way they felt... I wrote in my journal to say the things that I couldnt say out loud and now well I am fine saying them because whenever I hear others stories they warm my heart and I just wish that I could just pick them up at anytime so I can feel that way over and over again... Maybe I am being corny but its just the way I feel. So if you call me and I don't pick up... I am probably busy with this new old hobby I have... you should try it.

It's the little things

I don't mind cleaning... not even a little bit... but I do hate how it seems to never end... one minute you have done all of you dirty clothes to only a few days later to have to do the chore over again... And when you get married you have to do more laundry faster... but I guess it all evens out. Sometimes I even manage to get Shawn to do it... without even having to ask. That makes me happy. Its the little things...
Do you other married people have moments where its like I LOVE MY HUSBAND/WIFE because they did stuff like put an extra coke in the fridge so its cold when you are running out the door to go to work? Or putting gas in your tank and then you get in the car so you have 5 extra minutes to do your makeup in the car cuz you dont have to stop at the gas station....Oh man I love it... its the little things and I find that I say that phrase a lot. I love it... making someone else happy is great:) What are some things that you have noticed?

Two Peas in a Pod



We're hitched!!! And it's really great thus far... We have been adjusting to married life by getting settled in the house and starting our jobs. We had no hiccups or anything on our wedding day... it really was just a beautiful and spirit filled day... I wish it could have lasted forever. We went on an amazing cruise to Cozumel Mexico and the Cayman Islands... and for my first cruise experience it was fantastic... the food was amazing... the scenery was amazing... it was amazing.
It took us a while to get situated into the house... so far we have dealt with no AC for about a week and I think that if it weren't for the fact that we are Newlyweds we could have had serious problems( Just kidding honey):) Shawn is working construction and becoming the tannest person I know. I am still white as snow. Shawn will also be working at Stone Mountain Park as a Ranger part-time... I am still working at the bank and like my new branch... everything is so different... its fun... We have some projects at the house that we are looking forward to doing... PAINTING... yay... I cant wait... but the house is coming along little by little... We are two peas in a pod happy to be together... yay for weddings and marriage and all that fun stuff.
Look forward to keeping everyone updated on our new little blog.
