Today marks exactly 9 months since Jeremy and I have been married! To say this year has flown by is an understatement. This time last year we were a few months away from saying I Do all while multiple other major life events were simultaneously happening. We were settling into our new home, I transitioned not only to a new position, but a completely different company, Jeremy dove back into entrepreneurship and started a business and his corporate company was going through a huge merger and re-org (reorganization). We spent so much time in and out of airports, traveling for trainings, coordinating appointments for contractors and vendors, not to mention planning a destination wedding thousands of miles away.

As stressful as it may sound, it actually was. Life was happening so fast with no sign of slowing down. Fast forward to today, we made it through and so much more life has happened since then. Blessings on blessings. So far we’ve spent the day knocking out a boxing session (him), I’ve been painting and organizing and now we’re watching old episodes of “The Office”. Quite the chill and not so fast paced Saturday for an old, newlywed couple. Happy 9 months bae! This is Where Life Meets Living
