One Month On...


Lynzie & Kyle's Same Day Edit July 12, 2010 from Mark Hiebert on Vimeo.

One Month On...

Its so hard to believe... Its almost been one month since the wedding... One month since we said our blissful 'I DO' (which was actually 'I WILL') and its been such a roller coaster ride since...

Someone asked me whether or not being married is all its cracked up to be. Well, its so different than single life... and yet not that different at the same time. I mean, Kyle and I were celibate before marriage, and honoured eachothers purity in the journey to our wedding day. And honestly, once it was all over, it took until the next day for anything really physical to happen. Its so true when people say that the day goes by and you end up in the hotel room asking the question, "What just happened?! Its it true, did we really do that, are we really married??"

IT IS! WE ARE! YOU ARE MY HUSBAND AND I AM YOUR WIFE! - moment of silence... WOW.

I realize that I have not written as much as I should have, and that the week after the wedding was over, I should have posted something about what the day was like, what happened, photos etc... so here goes. My attempt, or our attempt, to make it right. I sincerely hope that anyone following us, actually gets to know and read further.

The day was amazing. The lead up to was crazy, insane and fun, all at the same time. I seriously don't remember so many things that happened, and I want to remember it all. All the great, all the amazing, and all the ugly... and there is always a little ugly :)

I don't think I need to go into too much detail about the day, because the video that Mark and EPIC Videography produced, contains the detail you will want and need to see... and in the next 2 months, I will detail a little about the day, the walk down the isle, and the companies that helped make is to beautiful.

I have to say one thing though... to all you brides out there, the moment you get with your father, before he walks you down that isle, enjoy it. You will never get it back. It will make you cry... and its beautiful. And then, when that moment is over, you get to look at the man you are walking toward, escorted by the man that raised you to be the stunning bride that you are. Savor ever moment. Every moment. And when you Mum wants extra photos, or starts to cry even before the day begins, just hug her and show her love... its because of both of them that you are where you are, and your entire life has lead up to this moment. There is not a thing that you would ever need to change about what has happened to you in your past, you are you because of the journey you walked your entire life... and as a believer, I know that God never makes a wrong decision. So... that said... remember to remember it all... it goes so fast...

All that said, its been an interesting month... nesting...

Kyle and I have had our moments, and so has our apartment. A leaking shower, a crack in our kitchen sink faucet, a gaping hole into the roof from our kitchen cupboards, a fridge that stops working and a crumbling ceiling... wow. Married life always kicks off with a story, doesn't it? Laugh, take it all in stride and know that it can only get better from here. God has a plan.

We did rather well in our presentation money from the wedding, and I have yet to begin our thank you cards (though I should get on that!), and yet life is still costly. So... I am out to find a job. If you know of something you think I would be good at, let me know. Ill post my Resume, but let me know if you hear of anything... and who knows, I could turn this into a business... Weddings, Events.... Eternally You...

Who knows.

God does. Pray for us if you think of it...

Until next week... and our first company review :)

Love to all...
