3 months later (after i PROMISED myself i'd keep up with this thing) and we got NOTHING. haha. I guess we haven't updated because we have spent the last 3 months adjusting to this newly married life. Every day is interesting because there is NEVER a dull moment in our lives. I guess the best update would be that Jeremy has been in the training class to become a State Prison Guard (or as he would correct me, ACO - Adult Corrections Office). It has been a 10 week class and this Thursday he will finally graduate. I complain about his job every day (except the days I'm paying our bills and actually CAN because he's doing pretty well). I only complain because I can see this job taking up every SECOND of his time. oh well, i should stop complaining. I have a husband who works hard and enjoys it. He is SOOOO excited for this graduation. As for me, I'm still at the same job. I don't LOVE my job, but I am grateful to have one. Lately, it has afforded me the opportunities to travel, so I can't REALLY complain.
All in all, everything with the Ava's is good. Now all we gotta do is find Jeremy a truck....hmmmm. that's the NEXT adventure. :)

MRS. Ava...whoa.
Well it's been forever since I've posted on here. Mostly because i have been INCREDIBLY busy for the last 6 months. The last time i posted in August i was complaining about all the things that could and DID go wrong. I post today refreshed and FINALLY back to real life...
December 30th felt like it would NEVER arrive, but it did and it was a BEAUTIFUL wedding. I am officially married. that is weird to say and even stranger to see in writing! in a matter of a few hours, my entire life changed. I no longer live at home, (for the first time in my LIFE), I no longer live in a full house (it's just the 2 of us) and i REALLY don't get to sit and wait for mom to do everything anymore...I have a new last name and as weird as that is for me, that's not even the BIGGEST of the changes I've experienced.
I am so happy though. In the short week that we've been married, I have learned so much. It's true, the time after the wedding is truly the honeymoon period, but there is another truth that isn't as widely spread...that is that we all eventually have to return to real life. I am so excited to be married to my best friend for time and eternity. While the day (and the millions of days before it) wasn't without it's mishaps or speed bumps, it turned out to be the happiest day of my life (so far). Everything was 10 times more beautiful than I expected and the everyone enjoyed themselves.
As I sit at work on my first day back, I am floored by how quickly even a week has passed. I can't wait to go home to my husband and our little home that's all our own. The time and energy we invested this past week in personalizing our home and making it beautiful to us will pay off when I walk through the door greeted by the spirit that we have worked so hard to welcome into our home.
I wish I had the time to go back and go over every little detail and thought from our wedding day, but that will have to wait...So until then, (since my photographer hasn't EEEEVEN gotten back to us) here's the 2 pictures I have from that day...(thanks Teu & Kawena).
