What? You thought the honeymoon stage meant everything was just peachy? Well, it has been wonderful. However, this only-child has learned on this journey from me to we...
1. "My side" of the sink does not really exist. Just because you put it on the side where you think your stuff is, your spouse can still use your bar soap and yes, even your face towel. :)
2. I have always considered myself to be very independent, but I love having a partner and roomie.
3. Now that I have a king size bed, I can still twirl and kick and Scott barely feels the wrath of my erratic sleep patterns; however, he is still not used to my sleep-talking, for which we would need a sound-proof divider to avoid.
4. Cleanliness is completely subjective.
5. Always go to bed at the same time. It makes for better communication and stuff...

Wedding Upheaval...
Scott and I faced every obstacle we could think of to get to the "I Do's." Even up to the hours before we were to leave to come to Texas, trials continued to challenge us. As we sat in our seats on the airplane, taking in a deep breath, Scott says, "Don't worry Nik, we're on our way now. We should just be thankful because I know from these experiences that we can handle whatever comes our way." He was so right...God has been faithful my entire life, and as I thought back over four parents' illness, financial strife, transferring schools, falls and all--I couldn't think of one human catastrophe that didn't have divine interventions to save us. Time and again, Christ is our Savior.
Once we arrived in Texas, we were overwhelmed with love, support and details! It was an incredible opportunity to have so many people we love in one space, mingling together. Powerful camaraderie was made between different groups and families, connections were made and even new friendships. Eight different states were represented by friends traveling from afar, grade school to grad school and family abundant.
Once we shut the door to the limousine, I remember turning to Scott and feeling warmth and connection. Leaving and cleaving wasn't what I had initially imagined it to be. Instead, it was a new chapter in a book that made me feel deeper connection to the creation story, my family and my future.
