We dont have a lot to say, but I thought this would be a good way to journal what's going on in our lives as we have started out our married life together.
I would love to "follow" all of you and keep up with your life. As I get older, I realize how important it is to keep the ties strong between us and not forget about friends. Even though we have scattered and moved on to different cities and different places in our journey, we still have that connection, whether it is childhood, church, high school, etc.
Ok, so here's my first post! I thought I'd start this since it's the beginning of a new year, and 2010 is going to be great. Personally, I dont know how it will top 2009, but I am a bit biased ;)
However, God always has great ways of surprising and blessing us.
A little overview... The year 2009 was surreal: Matt (my husband) graduated from Texas A&M with his degree in Civil Engineering. We bought our first house, which led to packing and moving. I celebrated my one year anniversary at my "real world" job. We were busy wedding planning, going to showers with wonderful friends, researching honeymoon spots, traveling a LOT, and looking forward to the BIG day. We got married! We went to Jamaica. Matt started graduate school in Civil Engineering. We got a sweet, loving, red heeler puppy named Wiley. Then, we got to play the fun newlywed holidays game where you go see everyone in both of your families for each major holiday. Whew!!
We were so blessed last year. But, needless to say, we are KIND OF excited about this year being slower and simpler. More time at home, more sleep, less craziness. Below is 2009 in pictures...

Yea!!! I'm so glad to see your blog! I had noticed that Ashley G was following me but that she didn't have one. Now she does.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to show Lindy in the morning. She loves seeing all her faves' blogs.
I hope you and Matt (and Wiley) are doing well. Today I was going through some keepsakes and read a couple notes from you and I got to missing your sweet self!
Love you girl~
