It's a charmed life... charmed married life





I am new to this blog thing However now that I live in Iowa with a husband and a sweet place I thought I would give it a try so people can see my fabulous life. I must warn any readers that when I type it becomes a random train of my thoughts, it could be weird.

Yesterday I celebrated my one month anniversary!! I know it seems crazy that I am married. I am so lucky! I married a man who was one of my closest friends for two years before dating. He is the nicest man I have ever know. He can carry me everywhere, he makes me laugh when I am sad, he supports my ideas, and loves my quirks. He is hardworking and driven, but so much fun. I adore him. He had to chase me for months before I could commit but then our dating life was perfect. He proposed to me in Kentucky and we were married four months later.

One month ago was the best day of my life. I planned a wedding without a mom and from 2,000 miles away. It was absolutely the PERFECT wedding. The decor was gorgeous, the food was great, and so many great people came. A
fter that we went to Virginia for a honeymoon. What a great time, a week to do nothing but play! Then we headed back to Iowa. In the month preceding the wedding We drove over 5,000 miles and completely packed my car at least 3 times. It was a month of planning, packing, driving and moving. Leading up to a week of wedding fun then a new life.

We have moved back to Iowa. Young is from Iowa and so we moved here for him to finish school. So yes I live in Iowa now. Iowa City to be exact, it is a fun town, there are tons of record stores, boutiques, and live music. I am getting used to it. It is a little weird moving to a place where I knew no one. However it is way closer to my family than I was and I have Young so it is great!!

We moved into a great place, it is in the perfect location. It is a cute two bedroom, one bath apartment. I have been trying to decorate it with the little skills and money I have. So feel free to come play!!

I am looking for a job here with no luck... ye
t. This seems like a dream before reality because we have tons of time to play together. It feels so far like we are just playing house, but I must say it is way better than living with roommates. It is great to have an entire place to do anything I want!!

This is my life... so far....
