I promise promise promise I WILL blog about the wedding and the following activities, I'm waiting to get my pictures back. But then I'll get a move on, I promise.
For now, I'll just talk a little bit about life as a wife(yes, I rhymed on purpose).
First of all, Jacob is an amazing husband(I didn't doubt that would be the case). He takes such good care of me, and does little things for me, like grabbing all the things I need before I go to sleep. He's patient with my crazy work/sleep schedule, and never complains when my alarm clock wakes him up at 4:20. It's annoying to have such a different sleep schedule, but we're making it work.
Second, it's really weird not being constantly busy with school. And we love it. Although I get bored really easily, it's still nice to just sit at home all day. Sometimes I feel really bad for not getting anything accomplished, but usually I feel like I deserve the break. :)
One thing I really want to be better at is cooking. We've been trying to find some good recipes we want to try or get better at making, and tonight we found a great one. (It helps that I was given about 6 or 7 cookbooks) You may have heard of cabbage rolls...these were kind of like that. Except they were Cabbage Crescent Rolls. So instead of trying to wrap the meat in the cabbage, we cooked both together and then wrapped them in the crescent rolls you can buy. The recipe is BIG. At least for two people. I halved it and we are both super full, and there is enough for dinner another night. Anyway, the reason I'm telling you this at all is because I'm just happy that it was such a success.
Also, my family(the Doug
Hirschi family) had our first reunion this summer. I guess you would call it that at least. My parents paid for us all to stay at a cabin at a
Camperworld up by
Heber City. It was smaller than we all expected, and that was a little annoying, but we still had fun and I'm glad we've started that tradition. I can hardly believe that the family has gone from 5 to 8 already, but I'm certainly glad for Matt, Evelyn, and Jacob. And we were also happy to have David's friend Sheridan spend some time up there with us as well.
We also enjoyed Memorial Day this last Monday. Our day included breakfast and cemetery visit in
Herriman at 9, lunch at a park in the Draper area at 12 along with a shower for Jacob's sister Sarah, and then making it back to Provo in time for Jacob to work at 4. It was a busy but fun day.
Anyway, over all, being married is an adjustment, but for the most part it's been easy, and we're both pretty happy.
