The first week of marriage

This first week of marriage has been everything and nothing like I thought it would be. The wedding itself was wonderful! I was so nervous the morning of, but it seemed that Weston was too because he got lost on the way to my sisters house where I was staying. The first time in our whole relationship that he got lost and it was on our wedding day. It was crazy! I was so stressed out the morning of the wedding that I had to keep reminding myself that it didn't matter and all that mattered was that we got there and were together. The temple wasn't going anywhere. By the time we got there my nerves really kicked in, but more because I was excited then actually nervous.
The ceremony was beautiful. When we went up into the room to have the sealing, we saw the family. Weston's family was sitting on the left and my family was on the right. I was suprised to see some of the people that I saw. But it was wonderful to see everyone there to support us and love us. What the sealer said was really great. He talked about being commited to eachother and showing that we loved eachother every day. I think it was really great advice. He also talked a little bit about physical intimacy, but I don't think he needed to. Weston and I could hardly keep our hands off each other. Yea, it's crazy. To quote my brother Garrett
" I have never seen any couple with more passion then you two."
Getting ready after the ceremony and dressing in my wedding dress I was so nervous because I didn't know if Weston would react the way I wanted him too. I did my makeup again and Danielle, who was amazing at my hair, fixed my hair and then I was ready. I stopped outside of the hall where Weston was. I did a quick peak around the corner and Weston was looking and jumped up to meet me. I pulled back and took one last quick breath then moved around the corner. He stopped dead in his tracks, did a really fast little dance jumping thing then came half running down the hall. It was so sweet! I loved it!
Our reception came and went in a blur, but I remember loving it. It was wonderful. The band was really good. They played awsome music and also made me sing. Yea . . . like I was excited about that. No. But it was fun. The whole thing was just great.
Our honeymoon was amazing! The Armstrong Mansion was amazing. I never wanted to leave. But truth be told I really liked the June Bride room better then the October Hallow. It was to dark in the October Hallow during the day. It kept me really tired all the time. We ate total junk food and I absolutly loved it! YEA!!!!!!!!!
But since coming home from the B&B I've been really stressed. Money, job, book etc . . . But the best thing about it all is that I get to wake each morning to my Husband/Bestfriend every morning and go to sleep every night in his arms. Having him hold me make me feel as if the world has stopped and nothing bad can touch me becuase he will fight them all off. He also does the cutest things! I think things are cute when they shouldn't be. Like him yawning and making the growling sound. The way he touches me everytime he walks by. It's all so sweet.
I went and used some of our gift certificates from Bed Bath and Beyond to get somethings for the bathroom. We needed a rug and a toothbrush holder and a new back brush. The bristles of our old one were starting to come out. That's a problem.
It's kind of weird to be buying things for our apartment. It feels so natural to me, but at the same time, I feel like I'm living in a foggy cloud right now. Those of you that are married must know how that feels.
