Wedding Pictures

I just haven't even thought about writing for months, Layton and I have been married for just over 8.  They have been filled with tons of learning and I kind of like it when Layton laughs at something I do without even really thinking about it and I ask what's so funny and he just says "Oh just still learning about you :)"  We laugh pretty much every day which I like and are really learning so much.  We have a routine down for doing the dishes (after a few arguments and me despairingly saying how much I hate doing them) that we have been able to agree on and it works out well.  I still do them and I still don't like them, but with this routine, there's structure and we are able to count on each other to show up because we have talked about it and decided.

It feels like we have been married for a very long time, and 8 months is kind of a long time, but not really... We'll be coming up on a year before we know it and sometimes I look at us like, we seem so young and I can hardly believe we're doing this!! It will be even crazier when children come along... I don't know if I'll ever actually feel like, "okay, I'm old enough to be doing this, I'm at the right age." Now I get what people saying when they start getting older is that it just doesn't seem like it, they still feel like they're 20 or something.  I can see how much I've matured, especially within the past year.  I have learned an intense, intense amount of things.  Not just from being married.  But I don't know if I will bring it out to the public just yet.  I have come to a very heightened sense of awareness of many things and can no longer live the way I used to.  I choose differently now because I am awake and conscious.  It's hard and can be exhausting sometimes, and I know it's the Truth.  I am grateful for it.  

I wanted to post some pictures from the wedding just because I was going to look at them and thought, "why not?"  I'm also going to post a few from our Bridals.  I got my dress from The Perfect Dress, and I mean really, it was perfect to me.  It was exactly what I was looking for and I actually started looking for it waaaay too late, as in, it would have been nearly impossible to order anything, but luckily, the sample dress wasn't ridiculously not my size and they have amazing seamstresses that they set you up with.  I decided (after much Pinterest-ing) that I wanted to go for the flower crown.  Looking back I realize that honestly, it doesn't really matter what you wear or what you look like really.  I can see now things that I wish I had worn or hadn't worn, etc.  But that would have been the case no matter what I wore.  What's important is that we chose each other, we chose to be committed to each other for eternity and to marry and be sealed in the Temple of the God we believe in.  To find out more about temples, click here.  

Without further ado...
