We are Home Owners!

Darick and I are SO thrilled that we have finally gone to settlement on our house! We are in the process of moving in....slowly....we have so much stuff!
This past weekend we had TONS of help from some of our amazing friends. We painted, cleaned, ripped up carpeting, and have started to make it our own. There is much more work to do, but the process is so fun :)

Thank you to all of our friend and family who have supported us throughout this process! WE ARE ECSTATIC!! Having a wedding AND buying a house all in one year has been a challenge, and we couldn't have done it without everyone's support. A HUGE thank you to my Mom, who has let us stay with her for the past 2 years to save the money to make such a big purchase. She's always supported us, and for that, we are forever grateful! Without her, this would NOT have been a possibility. She is the best Marmee in the whole world!!

We plan to have a housewarming party most likely in the spring time. We just need to buy a BBQ!! :)

Honeymoon Preview!

Here are some shots from our FABULOUS honeymoon at Secret's Wild Orchid in Jamaica! We were there for 9 days and we could have stayed forever :)

I'm back! ....again!

Ohhh hello dear friends, it's me! Probably thought I feel off the face of the planet huh?
Well, I kind of did. It's been a crazy few months and we are just now getting settled again after our wedding & honeymoon....JUST in time for the hustle & bustle of the holidays.
A dear friend of mine called me out while we were at a wedding together a couple weeks ago. I believe it was the first thing that she said as we sat down for dinner... "So...what's up with your blog? Hello! Get with it!" Or something to that effect. And she's right! I've been so caught up in this day-to-day life stuff, and even just a few sentences into this, I'm remembering how therapeutic it is to just sit down and type. So, thank you Mads! You're the best :)
I'm going to go through some pictures from the pre-wedding festivities and some honeymoon pictures and get them up here ASAP!
It feels good to be back, even if this was just my intro. xoxo
