Marry Me Monday: One Month of Married Life!

Today marks one month of marriage.  In ways, it does not seem possible for our wedding day to have been a month ago because the memories seem so fresh.  But more so, life has happened in such full throttle that it feels like a year!  A month ago today was an absolutely beautiful wedding day.  We loved every moment of it and truly enjoyed ourselves. I would not change a thing and when I look at the pictures, I am filled with a warm feeling of joy and love.  I will be sharing the details and pictures of our special day in the posts to come.

Since our wedding day, we jumped right into the "in sickness" part of our vows when I developed an eye condition that caused us to have to leave our honeymoon to rush back to an eye specialist. One month without eye makeup or contacts along with about seven eye doctor visits later, I am on my way to getting better!  Also, in our first week, my grandmother had to have emergency surgery and is now slowly recovering.  So yes, we jumped right into life.  I expect the second month of marriage to go into the "in health" part of our vows.  I apologize for being a week late for my blogging return but life has literally been a blur this past month.

In the midst of sickness, we have had fun in our first month.  We have started the process of unpacking wedding gifts and organizing my stuff that I  moved in. I have a feeling that process will take all summer!  We take advantage of any nice spring day to go on our patio to eat dinner and have a glass of wine.  Friends have dropped by and we hosted our first impromptu dinner party.  We are just enjoying daily life as newlyweds and it is wonderful! Tonight we are going to celebrate by cooking a special dinner of salmon, asparagus and rosemary roasted potatoes. We will be eating this delicious meal on our gorgeous Blue Heron plates and sipping champagne from new toasting flutes. Cheers to starting month two!
