What a wonderful 3 months it has been! It has been such a joy to be married to your best friend. To be able to come home each day to the man of your dreams! I just LOVE being married! Jon and I have been married for 3 months and 1 day today! Still a bride, someone told me the other day! She said you were considered a bride for one year... great I thought... but what are you considered once you hit that year marker?!?! I don't know if I want to know the answer to that!
My sweet husband was so thoughtful and went out and bought me flowers yesterday so I thought I would put a picture up of them because they are so gorgeous! They are exactly what was in my wedding bouquet. So sweet and thoughtful of him!
Jon and I are doing really well - there is not a whole lot to update on but I did want to share some recent photos of us with the kids (Harrison and Isabelle) and also a few others of a retreat day that we had yesterday for my work. We went to the beautiful countryside and had a very peaceful time. The weather was gorgeous and I was able to play my first game of Cricket, which would be a bit like baseball in America. It was such a laugh, but someone actually told me that I was a natural!
Another update is that I had the honor of watching my husband sing in a "boy band" for our Women's Day that we had for our church the other weekend. It was so great... he did so well, all of them did. And the women of course LOVED it! There was over 1,000 women at this conference and Jon as well as 3 other boys sang to us while we had a break and enjoyed some ice cream. It was such a treat and so funny to see women swaying back and forth to these love songs, and at one point I heard screams after Jon sang a solo bit (which was so funny!). Below is a picture of Jon and the rest of the boys...
We hope that everyone is doing well... we miss all of our family and friends in the US. Looking forward to a visit at the end of August/beginning of September. Love you all and please keep in touch. Would love to hear from you! Will update again soon as we are off to visit friends for the weekend in Brighton which is on the coast... really looking forward to getting away for the weekend! So, check back again soon for some photos and an update on our trip! Bye for now...
