Hello world! Yesterday marked the one month mark from Adam and I’s wedding and I cannot believe how fast it went by! To be honest a large part of this month has been spent coming to terms with the fact that 2012 did not end on September 22nd! So much of the past year was spent focusing on the wedding that it’s been a bit of a shock to suddenly not be working on it anymore.
While there will eventually be many many back entries on how the day itself went, right now I’d like to talk about everything that has happened since then. Let’s start with a list shall we:
• Two of my very dear friends both had babies… on the same day!!! September 25th 2012 will be forever remembered as the day of the baby! There was a worry that one or both girls wouldn’t make through Adam and I’s ceremony (1 of them and her husband were both in the wedding party and their due date was our wedding day, we like to cram all of our life events into a weekend if possible!), but there were no issues and both babies and mommies came out just fine.
• One of my best friends from High School had her US wedding reception the Saturday after our wedding. It was a blast! Not only was if great for Adam and I because we got to talk to a lot of our friends that we’d missed at our wedding, but I also got to finally meet a lot if Irene’s friends from college. It was odd in the sense that there were a lot of people there who I recognized and knew a lot about, but had never actually met. A few people actually came up and introduced themselves because they were in a similar situation with me.
• We got a puppy!!! Ok, this was not planned, at all! Adam and I had decided to take a day trip up to Ellijay to go apple picking and, on our way up there, we saw a sign for pet adoptions. We decided that we could use some pet therapy and pulled over. An hour and a half later, we left the store with this little guy.
We named him Orville after Orville Wright ( Adam thought he looked like a vintage aviator). He has been an absolute dream dog! We’ve had him for two weeks and he’s already almost house broken and beginning to pick up a few tricks. He’s got the perfect amount of energy and yet poses no threat to our rabbit, Bruno (though the two of them aren’t exactly best friends yet I think it will come with time). In the short time he’s been around he definitely feels like a member of our new little family. I can’t wait to start dog school with him next week.
That’s all I got for now!
