A month and then some

I have now been married for 39 days.

Does it feel like five and a half weeks? I don't really know. It sure has been jam-packed.

Our duplex is finally looking so nice with a little help from friends and parents, along with a few early mornings/late evenings/working on the weekends. It's hard working full time out of town and still being a good housekeeper and such, but I think I'm getting the hang of it! Christopher is really good about helping out, and that is huge.

One of my favorite things about having our own place is having company. So far we've had the college kids over to hang out a couple times, two of our friends over for burgers and three friends for Hamburger Helper and corn muffins. Tomorrow we're having a dear family over for hotdogs on the grill. I'm just so excited to be able to host people! That can also be hard, when I rarely get home before 8 p.m. But again, we're getting the hang of it.

Christopher and I will have our first "adventure" this weekend as a married couple (grocery shopping, bill paying and dishwashing have been their own kind of adventure, sure, but let's not count that). Auburn's first game is Saturday, so we're headed to Atlanta for the Clemson game! It's our first away game, and we're both pretty excited. Let's just hope Auburn starts the season off with a victory. War Eagle!

Well, if any of you ever want to come down to see us in Auburn, please do! As I've said, I love having company, and we even have a guest bedroom! Come see us!
