Fall is arriving... slower over here though

Lately I have been addicted to pintrest. Terrible, I know. My very sweet mother and sister talked me in to giving it another chance. And well, I became addicted on that second chance. But while on there, I have found some cute styles that I can't wait to wear as soon as it cools down a little here. You see, it's still in the upper 70's here. Which is totally ok with me, but I can't wait to wear some things that I haven't worn since last fall. It's like I get new clothes or something!




See? Aren't those going to be so fun!! I think so. I can't wait to mix and match the things that I already have like never before!
This weekend is conference! Adam and I already talked about it. We don't have to go anywhere this weekend, besides tonight. It will be a very nice relaxing weekend! And if we decide to go out, we will have so much fun!

10 things I love about marriage

I always knew marriage would be great, but sometimes I don't realize how great I have it. I am married to a wonderful man who loves me, makes me laugh, and spports me in everything I do. It's funny how the "little things" make the biggest difference in a relationship.

1. Being taught how to dance
2. Dancing in the kitchen
3. Being hugged from behind while I am brushing my teeth
4. Laying in bed remembering our first date, the first time we said "I love you", and our wedding day
5. Being able to roll over and cuddle with him whenever I want
6. Cleaning and cooking together
7. Reading together
8. Finding movies we both love
9. Being almost asleep, opening my eyes to see if he is asleep only to notice that he is watching me sleep
10. Knowing that I get all of this and more for the rest of my life

I am so greatful that I waited for him to come along. I get to be with my best friend forever! Marriage has its hard times, yes. But it is all worth it if I get to spend eternity with this hunk of a man.

Evening Stroll

Adam and I decided to take a walk last night. We live a couple blocks away from a cemetary and for some reason Adam decided he wanted to head in that direction. I wasn't too fond of that decision at first but after we arrived it was really cool to see all of the WW I and WW II vets that were there. We strolled along hand in hand, weaving in and out of grave stones, and reading every sign we came across.

This is the outside of our apartment. The first time I have actually taken a camera on one of our walks!

Moving to North Carolina has been the hardest but best thing that has ever happened to Adam and I. We have grown so much closer since being here. Having to rely only on one another has been amazing. In Rexburg, we always had our friends and family around to have over or to hang out with. Don't get me wrong, I love them all. But being in a city where we don't know anyone has been the best thing ever. Adam and I have found things we like doing together. We take long walks and watch movies (and tons of Prison Break). We laugh about more and we are learning how to let the little things go.

I thought I loved this man the first time I saw him. I thought I loved him when I told him that I loved him for the first time. I thought I loved him when he told me he loved me. I thought I loved him when he asked me to marry him and spend eternity with him. Then, I thought I loved him the day we were sealed in the Portland temple for time and eternity. I didn't realize the day would come that I would love this man even more than our wedding day this soon. Gestting to know each other better more and more each day has made me realize more and more each day how much I love this man. He is the best thing that has ever happened to me.
