And I have no idea where to start.
I'm just now tacking coherent words onto Saturday. I need some time to gather my thoughts and process all of this, and I am almost afraid to "shake the glitter off." I also have no clue how to do recaps. I'll fill you all in on the wedding, the pictures, etc, but I have to get it all straight in my head first. It was such an intense day!
Also...Ryan and I live in the same town. In the same house! Which leads me to finally tell you all....Ryan got the coaching job he's been working towards for years. He has paid his dues and then some, and I couldn't be happier for him. His first day was yesterday, and I have never felt more humbly blessed in my life. We waited to tell 95% of our family and friends until after the toasts at the wedding, and every single person in that room stood up and applauded Ryan. I don't have any words for how I felt at that moment. We were both speechless.
Since Ryan started his dream job 2 days after the wedding, we are putting off a honeymoon for now. I don't mind nearly as much as I thought I would. Having him in the same house is a honeymoon after being 2 hours apart for over a year.
We're starting off our marriage with everything we have ever dreamed of, and I am sitting back and soaking it all in. I'll keep you all posted as soon as I can string some thoughts together on the wedding. It was all so huge I'm having quite a time with it!
Congratulations on the wedding, on Ryan's job, and on finally living together!! I know how AWESOME that feels!! Can't wait to see pictures and hear more about your day!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! It actually made me tear up when you wrote about Ryan's job. That's truly an amazing wedding present and honeymoon in itself. Wishing you all the happiness in the world.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!!! So exciting...congrats to your hubby! What a great way to start off your marriage!
ReplyDeleteYOU'RE BAAAAACK!!!! I was thinking about you today (creepy?) and wondering when you'd be back (couldn't remember if you were taking a honeymoon or not). First, congratulations, you're MARRIED! Second, congratulations, Ryan's employed!! Third, congratulations, you're living together!! How very, very exciting :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear all about the day and see pictures. I *know* you were a beautiful bride. Take all the time you need to process the day. It's been over 2 months for me and I'm still trying to do it. So happy for you :)
Oh wow, a big congratulations to you both. What wonderful news about Ryan's job, and great timing with telling everyone. You gave me the warm and fuzzies, so I can only imagine what you're feeling. :) I'm sure the glitter won't be shaking off anything anytime soon!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to you both! On both accounts! This is all so exciting! I can't believe I've been following you from the beginning and now its time for recaps! Wow! Congrats again!
