Busy First Two Months of Marriage

Wow, things have really been hectic for us since the wedding. We figured that in the nearly two and a half months that we have been married, Maggie has been in town for only four weeks. Gotta love a job that travels. School is starting pick up for me as well, especially since we are at midterm. And it only gets busier for us the next few months. Maggie travels this coming week and is in town for about a month and a half before going back out of town for about four weeks. During this time period, I will be finishing this trimester with regular tests and then finals, then on into studying and taking Part I of the National Boards for Chiropractic. Yeah, fun times all around. And then, after all that, Maggie will be studying and taking the last of her big commissioning tests for her work. All the while, we are working in our backyard when we can, re-landscaping, killling, and reseeding the lawn. I think we will be glad when Novemeber comes around...heck, for that matter, we probably won't get a break until Chirstmas.

On the upside, we were able to get away for a weekend to Connecticut. I was a groomsman in my friend Ben's wedding. He and his wife Sarah, had their ceremony at her parents house, which, I must say was absolutely beautiful. It was definitely a wedding that will always stick out in our minds as one of the most lavish and amazing weddings that we will ever attend. We congratulate Ben and Sarah for their nuptials and hope they had an outstanding honeymoon and we thank Sarah's family for opening up their homes to all of us and being outstanding hosts and Ben's family for being just as hospitable all these years.
