A New Beginning

As of yesterday January 16th Joe and I have been married for two weeks. It has been the slowest, fastest two week period I have ever experienced. Our honeymoon to Palmetto Bluff in South Carolina and Washington D.C. was just spectacular. Palmetto Bluff is a resort and it was amazing. When I say amazing, I mean amazing! We got there late on Sunday night and were greeted by a driver with a sign reading M/M Weinberger. Eeeh so fun! We checked in at the main inn, were driven to cottage #18 and welcomed by a lit fire. I love my husband. Our time there was very special and relaxing and I know that it will always hold a special place in our hearts. Washington is one of my all time favorite cities. I'm not sure why, but being there makes me all giddy to be an American and I love the history. It was so great to just get away and enjoy each other. Moving back to College Station that Sunday was quite an experience. I don't know how we did it, but we managed to stuff all of our stuff into three cars with the help of our sweet parents. Unfortunately Joe's job has him out of town 50% of the time, so of course he was in Abilene this week. I spent a lot of my time unpacking, cleaning etc, but it also gave me time to think. This is a good and bad thing I've decided. It was surprisingly easy for me to obsess about the wedding. It was like I'm so used to thinking/stressing that it was natural. Is this normal? You know the feeling after you come home from a vacation or mission trip that you have planned and planned for? That is what a part of me feels like, except on a much larger scale. On the other hand, I had excellent mornings with Jesus. Anywho, my sweets is back and will hopefully be home for this whole week. This whole being a wife thing hasn't seemed to sink in yet, I feel like I'm playing house. I'll let you know when it does.

On a completely different note, today is my grandmother's birthday. I love you mimi. You introduced me to a beautiful thing called a musical and I miss our sweet times of watching Shirley Temple movies, dancing in the living room and eating ham sandwiches at the kitchen table. I wish I could be there to sing you Happy Birthday.
