The first 100 years are the hardest...

I've heard my grandpa say that for as long as I can remember.

First off, getting married was the best decision I've made, ever.
I love my life and my sweet husband.
Its just that sometimes Life has things planned differently than you do.
I'm learning alot about sacrifices. A lot.
Gabe has 18 credits this semester and isnt working nearly as much as last semester so our monthly income has been cut in half.
but, we're happy and more in love than ever :)

So here we go.... our apartment is now HOME (it has been for a month or so I'm just not good at updating!) It is painted and decorated and mostly the way I wanted it. We spent a good couple hundred dollars on re-painting the entire place and fixing things up here and there. We got a notice from the University at the beginning of December kindly letting us know that they were plannin on tearing down our new home and we had until May to find somewhere else to live. Just what you want to hear when you've been married for 2 months. So we decided to wait until after Christmas to start looking around and deciding what we wanted to do. The funny thing is, when Gabe first suggested we move into our apartment I was a little hesitant... but now, I have come to love it. Its our home. Anyways, we have looked at a few houses so far but havent loved any of them. We're going to look at another one tomorrow so wish us luck, we need it. haha and for all those friends who have yet come to visit... we would love to have any of you! anytime :)
