The latter is now my force for this blog. Many of my friends & family have begun "bloggin'" here & there. I started reading a few & was instantly intrigued. I love to scrapbook! I have, amazingly, started four scrapbooks ~ one for my loving grandparents, one for my precious niece (whoa! still a little overwhelming to say that), one for my amazing mother, & one for my relationship with my wonderful husband, Adam (very overwhelming to say that). However, if you noticed, I said started four scrapbooks. I have not since completed ONE of them! Scrapbooks are supposed to be "captured memories" of life's experiences. I've only captured a handful of memories with my grandparents, Mattie's FIRST year of life (she is almost five), a few *cute* snapshots with my momma, & the FIRST year of Adam & I's FOUR-year relationship.
So, through all of that & after reading a few others, I decided to be a bandwagon blogger. I must say after typing for about a minute or so, it's very therapeautic & will capture memories a lot cheaper than scrapbooking. :P As the titles states, I'll be sharing the BLisSFul (oh, I know, you're laughing because I think it's all going to be peachy...I'm not naive) ;) Beginnings of married life...
and today couldn't have been a more perfect day...to begin.
Adam & I were married one month ago today. February 23, 2008 was the most precious, chaotic day of my life. I'm so thankful for cameras or I would've missed most of it. Wish I could have started bloggin' that day so I could "capture more memories." As I sit here surrounded by Pottery Barn, Bed Bath & Beyond, & Target boxes, ribbons, cards, & a few of our wedding programs, invitations, and save-the-dates...I can't believe it's over. Adam looked amazing. As I walked down the aisle, everything & everyone was a blur except for him. Da, my only & most precious grandfather, let go of my hand & placed it in Adam's. It made me flashback for a moment of our first date. We went to a matinee movie to see Shrek II. We were the only people in the entire theatre. We sat & watched the entire DreamWorks film without even making eye contact. :) I wanted so badly to hold his hand. I remember both of us had our arms crossed hoping one of us would "make the move." He did. He got down on one knee & asked for my hand in marriage on February 23, 2007. A year later, we were married. So that brings me back to one month ago, when we said "I do" & joined our lives together. I'm looking forward to each day as Carrie Boyett. I plan to capture as much as I can through these day to day "blogs" of life. I hope you share in our Blissful Beginnings...
