Hello World!

Being new to this whole blogging thing I couldn't decide what I wanted to write about. So many of my dear friends have blogs and it seemed like such a good way to vent and share with the world just what I'm feeling. After all, I feel like I have pretty good thoughts sometimes so, why not?

My sweet husband and I honeymooning in Charleston, SC!

Our four-legged and furry son, Job!

Just recently I married my very best friend, and for the past couple of months we have been adjusting to being married. The idea of spending the rest of my life with Cain Eric gives me butterflies! I love my husband : ) My husband was also 2 1/2 hours away this past year so being together from here on out is so comforting and exciting! Of course with being married comes those wifely duties. I must admit, I had been looking forward to being a wife the entire year we were engaged! I love cooking, and the idea of cleaning and organizing and maintaining a home is so very appealing to me. A couple of months in, I am loving it!  Some days are not as good as others, but hey, I'm still adjusting so I give myself a little room to leave a few dishes in the sink every now and again. I want to support my hubby and love him and his love language is one that appreciates coming home to a clean orderly house. Fingers crossed that I can maintain a new teaching job and well kept home while keeping my sanity! Being married is a ton of fun! I am completely aware that some days will be hard, but I love and appreciate every minute of time with my awesome husband! We are complete and total kids together and we love laughing at each other's corny jokes! Currently, the olympics has inspired the inner athlete in Cain Eric and we have been playing soccer. He assures me that I'm good, even though I have never touched a soccer ball in my life. He on the other hand, played for years when he was younger and can maneuver the ball with ease making me look completely silly! He does let me score, and entertain the idea that I'm not so bad after all! Sweet right!?

Just a few weeks ago I was hired as a kindergarten teacher! God taught me so much through the way he provided the job and I learned a lot in the process. I'm going to see my room and start organizing a blank space tomorrow! I'm a tad  bit nervous about being a first year teacher and new wife of a pharmacy school student (which is an extremely stressful job in itself for my husband). I can't wait to dive in and organize my new classroom and home-away-from-home for me and my students as soon as I can! This is going to be an adventure and I'm so so SO excited!

So here we go! A 22-year-old's attempt at balancing being a Proverbs 31 wife to a wonderful husband and the best  first year kindergarten teacher I can be, all while most importantly, serving the one who created me! If anyone decides to read, be prepared for the unexpected and funny-now-but-not-at-the-time-it-occured stories!
