Together

Wes and I have now lived in South Bend for 16 days. Married for 35. We were in California and Mexico for our honeymoon. Drove through Wyoming, Nebraska, Iowa, and Illinois before arriving in Indiana. On the two day drive we saw a lot of nothing, corn fields, rolling hills, farms, and lots of green - match the description to the state in the sentence before ;)

But we made it! we love having a place to call our own. And it is our own - full of our furniture, pictures, and belongings. Not to mention our books. It didn't feel like our home until our books were in their places on our two book shelves. What really makes it home though, is that we're together. Knowing that when we go to sleep at night, we'll wake up right next to each other. together.

I wanted to start a blog as a way to stay in touch with all of our friends and family back home in Utah. So many of you want to hear about our adventures, well this is going to be the place to find them. No promises on how frequently I'll write - may depend on my job situation, which right now is still trying to be found - but hopefully posts will come often. Leaving home was hard - it's still hard to be in a place where Everything is different. But it is also good. and I want to share all the good things, and maybe the not so good things, with the people that I love and miss most.

So here's to reading and writing about Wes and I, together.
