No I didnt.
Between Christmas, getting married, the honeymoon, starting a nursing assistant program, Rex's crazy work schedule and school, moving into a new house, and oh yeah.. PAYING BILLS.
All I can say is....life got crazy BUSY!
But 3 months after the big day we've settled in and couldn't be happier. :)
ANYWAY.
Since our schedules have officially calmed down...
haha. well not reaally.. but calm enough to fit in some blogging once a month, I'm here to stay and turn this fun hobby into a habit.
Here we go.
The Smith life.
Where do I begin?
Well.. after the big day of tying the knot things have only gotten better!
The night of our honeymoon we stayed at this resort in Phoenix for two days and it was fabulous it basically consisted of laying in bed, watching tv, ordering room service, shopping, seeing movies, and more laying in bed.
The next week we went up to the Mountains in Albuquerque and stayed at a cabin (thanks to Aunt Deb!) and it was so much fun! Our original plan was to snowboard but... do you think that happened?? ha. NO. Rex had a cold and we found ourselves enjoying chilling in the house with an occasional playing in the snow:)The whole trip was a blast and besides spending every second with my hubby my favorite part was coming back and driving through Albuquerque (my hometown!!) We ate at all the hometown restaurants I havent been to for years and seriously gained 20 pounds but it was so worth it.
Once the honeymoon ended it was baby Rex's Birfffday!! Whaaa ohh yeahhh:) I think I was more excited than he was. haha. I shopped all day and found him some presents (which was money that i had been saving up for months) Since his birthday was on a Sunday we celebrated Saturday. I took him to this place called Happy Feet to get full body messages, then we eat dinner at Carrabas, and had Dairy Queen blizzards, to finish off the night we watched a movie on our temporary apartment on the floor. The whole day = SO FUN! On Sunday morning I kept my families tradition alive by making him breakfast in bed! I was proud of myself:)
After such a fun month of January we both started school and back to work full time meaning the "party" was over. Real Life began again. With Rex working all day and going to school at night and Myself going to school all day and working all night we were busy and tired and stressed and hungry(because i barely ever cooked ha). It was a rough first two months. But after a little adjusting things got better.
We got great news that we could sign on our house and once we did we legitamentally moved in withing 3 days.( We were so so SSO ready to get out of the little apartment) ha. My family helped us with TURBO SPEED painting and fixing the minor problems while Rex cut 30 holes installing a security system (that was all his idea which im so glad we ended up doing it... I watch too much Criminal Minds haha)
So now we're moved in and our loving making this little house our home!
Within a week at our new ward we spoke in church and recieved callings. Rex is a boyscout leader and I teach primary. Uhhhh... Crazyyyy??? Yeah it's still so weird for me! Like really?? Me teaching primary, I felt like I was just there (ha. I was 6yrs ago ha). But I love the class I teach and we love our ward.
It's so fun making new friends and establishing our new lives as Rex and Emily Smith.
Well.. That's about it for now our lives our set in a routine and it probably it may seem boring but we're loving it. Loving our house, loving our schedules, loving eachother, and loving our lives together.
P.S. To my husband:
I love you Rex with all my heart. Everyday waking up next to you makes me feel like I can do anything. You are my best friend and forever love. Thankyou for choosing me. I love you babah.:)
ANYWAY.
