Life has been going great! Summer is here and we both are ready to welcome it back. We have a busy summer ahead of us and then our first vacation with just the 2 of us since our honeymoon. I can't believe that we will have been married for 1 year in just 2 short weeks. This past year has been so amazing but feels like it has gone by so fast. Not only do we have our anniversary coming up next month but we also will be celebrating both of our birthdays as well. Brandon will be 25 and I will be 23. Right now I don't really have any complaints about life. God has been speaking some amazing things to both of us and we have been truly blessed through this past year. I am so excited to see all the things He has spoken to us fulfilled. It's going to be amazing!

Just Wait...

"Oh your still in the honeymoon stage, just wait" These words have been haunting me for that past week. Every week since our wedding people have asked us, "How is married life?" and every week our answer has been the same. Its great! And every week the response we receive is this, " Oh, you are still in the honeymoon stage. Just give it a few years." This never bothered me at first but recently a few of our married friends have struggled with their marriages and many of them are ending in divorce. For those of you who still don't know why this all has bothered me so much I will tell you. Not only did my parent's marriage end in divorce but 90% of the marriages in my family have all ended the same way. With the attack that all marriages are going through right now I started to become afraid. What if this is the way my marriage ends up? I then started to feel guilty for not being miserable in my marriage and then it hit me. Couples always tell us just wait, your happy now but just wait. Well, what are we waiting for? It that really God's will for us. To get married and then just sit and wait for it to get bad. We do argue and fight but this I believe is healthy for a marriage if done correctly. I know that God does not want me to be miserable in my marriage. He wants me to live harmoniously with my husband and as we continue to on our journey we would trust in Him more and we would learn to work as one. So for all of you who are thinking just wait well, I am waiting. I am waiting for this journey to just get better! We will go through trials and we aren't perfect my I am taking a stand and proclaiming that I am choosing to live our my marriage the way that God intended it. I know it's not going to be easy but I know that He is a great God and He is in control. As long as we keep our eyes on Him, He will not fail us.

BURRITOS!!!!!

Tonight we decided to make bean burritos for dinner. They turned out really tasty. I made homemade tortillas and then we filled them with beans, rice, cheese and Brandon's favorite, Chalula. They were super filling and super easy to make. I did have one accident today. I burned my arm on the oven door while making a pizza for lunch today. The burn is really bad and I tried to get a picture of it but the lighting made it look like nothing was there, but trust me, its bad.

New Home

We just moved into our new place last weekend and we just absolutely love it! Here are some pictures of our new place.

Our life has been a little crazy recently. We are in the process of moving to our new home and everything feels scattered everywhere. Brandon and his best friend Jon spent all day today moving boxes and our couches to the new place. Only 2 more weeks until we officially move! Through all the chaos we did find time to go to a Nuggets game and spend time with each other.

Moving to Castle Rock

I am happy to announce that we are moving to Castle Rock. We found a really nice townhome in Cutter's Rigde @ Sapphire Point. Our lease at our apartment ends on Feruary 26th and we have been looking for a place to rent in Castle Rock. The search was not doing so well and we were thinking we were going to have to sign another lease with our apartment but God heard our prayers and we will now be renting an amazing townhome in Sapphire Point. The way it worked out was pretty cool. I can't wait to post pictures and invite everyone over. It's going to be a blast.

It's Official...... like a Ref with a Whistle

As of today Brandon is officially a licensed pastor at The Rock. I am so proud of my man and I just wanted every one else to know. Congratulations baby! I love you!!!!
