Dan and I were married almost three weeks ago. We've had a whirlwind of an adventure over the last 7 months. We got engaged, changed jobs, moved to a new city (well back home for Dan), bought a house, and got married. In the mix of all the change, many things have remained the same. We continue to keep our faith as a priority. We are surrounded by family (some closer than others) and friends whom we love dearly. We continue to enjoy many of the same hobbies, such as the outdoors and cooking.
It seems that in the midst of chaos and uncertainty, you cling even more to the familiar, the certain. Both of our jobs are very good. He is an attorney and I'm a high school teacher. The new house is great, but we're still adjusting to being homeowners. You can't call the landlord and have him fix everything that breaks! Lafayette, while much smaller than New Orleans, has a charm all its own. There's lots of hunting for Dan, more festivals than we can visit, and new restaurants for us to try!
Married life has started off great! I think one of the beauties of not living together before getting married is that everything is new and therefore exciting! We've enjoyed getting to know the ins and outs of the other. We're learning what makes the other tick or what brings excitement. For example, we recently found mice in our garage and Dan laid traps. He was overjoyed when he found one dead in a trap and had to text me a picture of it! It excited him!
