I started my own blog - pretty crazy!!

So I'm not really sure how to do this type of thing. I'm guessing its kind of like a journal, but the kind of journal where you don't write super duper personal things, just things that you wouldn't mind your friends reading, right? Because I doubt you'd like to know my deep down, crazy thoughts...or would you?
Anyways, I guess I could start "blogging," as they call it. Nothing super crazy is going on in my life as of right now. All the craziness for 2009 is pretty much over, thank goodness. It started off with buying our very first home in January, immediately followed by a (much anticipated) marriage proposal. This excitement was enough to keep me going for at least a few months. The spring and summer months were spent updating our home and planning for our wedding. It felt like we literally had plans every day from April - October, but thats the way I like it. Needless to say, once the weekend of October 11th came, I was so ready to experience it AND even more ready for the nerves and anticipation to be over. Looking back at the experience, I can honestly say that our wedding was everything I had imagined it would be (minus the crazy cold weather; seriously - a high of only 40 degress the second weekend of October?? What the hell was that about?! Not to mention that 4 weeks later (today) it reached 60 degrees. Where was this weather when we really could've used it??)!
Side bar: One thing that you'll learn about me as you read my blog posts is this; I like to use parentheses and semi-colons, and I'm not ashamed of it! I tend to throw them in here and there, even when they are not needed. So, if you are weary of this type of thing, read with caution.
Back to the wedding thing...I still tear up (with joy) when I think of certain aspects of our wedding day. The two things that probably make me cry the most are (1) the complete joy I feel when I think about how perfect our ceremony was and (2)hearing the songs that were played during our ceremony. Our officient was absolutely perfect - I don't think we could've found anyone better than Pat. Every thing she said and did was perfect, and we felt so blessed that she was able to be part of our day. Even though it was miserably cold outside, I didn't feel a thing. I was so "in the moment" that I didn't notice anything going on around us; I just stared at Aaron and was so completely happy. I really wish we would've had someone videotape the ceremony. To anyone out there planning a wedding, please make sure to add a videographer to your "must have" list. I'm wishing we had. Additionally, the.music.was.perfect! I am so happy with how Bryan interpreted and played our songs, I can't even describe how amazing it felt to hear the song we loved as we walked down the aisle hand-in-hand.
I've been having a lot of people ask me lately, "how's married life?" I don't know if we're just really lame or if this is how it is for everyone, but married life doesn't really feel much different than "engaged" life or "dating" life; regardless, I'm 110% happy that we got married! Maybe it doesn't feel much different because we dated for 4 1/2 years before we got married or because we lived together for 4 years before saying "I do." The only things that are truly different is that I now have a different last name, I am a "wife," and I have a "husband." I love saying "my husband this..." and "my husband that..." It just feels so wonderful to be able to call Aaron my husband now and not my fiance or boyfriend anymore :)
Okay, this has been a long enough first entry for now. Until next time...
