Down The Road...A Step and A Half

I haven't posted anything since we got married because I was waiting to have pictures to post as well but its almost 5 months later and still no pictures so I figured I better just post anyways without any, and now I am sitting up unable to sleep and its 3am so what better to do then to blog right?

It's so crazy how fast time flies! I feel like we've been married forever but at the same time that we were engaged just a week ago, and so far being married is way better then being single :). I think sometimes it's good for everyone to scare you about getting married because then you expect the worse and are pleasantly surprised when its completely amazing ha ha. Ok I know 5 months isn't enough time to really say that but honestly its one of those things that it's everything you hope for but at the same time nothing you had expected.

Being in St. George without family or friends near by has been a learning experience. I think it was something I definitely needed. I have learned to rely so much more on him then I think I ever would have otherwise. Not to say there aren't times I just want to force him to move back up north, but I'm glad I have the opportunity, and 60 degrees in January/February isn't so bad either :)

October was spent with him working and me mostly looking for work. I loved doing the stay at home wife thing and loved being able to have that month to just be in charge of  taking care of the apartment and making dinner but without kids it gets a little boring. The end of October I got a job that honestly was an amazing blessing for both of us. Considering St. George isn't the easiest place to find work. It started the end of November, the very week after his work ended for the season and came with day one benefits and full time work and couldn't have come at a better time. Every worry I had when we got married was taken care of in a matter of weeks its crazy how sometimes you really do just have to trust that things will work out.

We have started looking into buying a home and are hoping to be into one by the end of the year if everything goes accordingly (lol which it never does but we will see!) We have talked with a few realitors but no one we are extremely interested in working with but we will continue to look. So right now we are just focused on saving as much as possible and enjoying still being newly married :)
