We're married, now what?

Hey there, Sara here.  I decided to start this blog mostly to take up some time, but also because I love sharing. Sharing is caring.  Any-who, obviously, yes, I am a newlywed.  Previously an Allison and now a Cox.  Brian & I  married on Sept. 10th, 2011.  Ya, 9/10/11.  Aren't I clever?  Hopefully he'll remember our anniversary in the years to come.  
We started dating in February of 2009.  By September, he was living with me because, well, I knew I wanted to marry him and you gotta test out the waters, right?  Two years later on March 24, 2011 (my b-day!) he proposed and I had already picked out a date 6 months away.  

My dream wedding came to life (many thanks to our families) and we were so very excited to start our new life together (even though it felt like we'd been married for a year already).

So the honeymoon is over and we look at each other like, now what?  We need to move that's what.  We had very quickly outgrown our two bedroom apartment (who knew two people could acquire so much junk stuff property).  The rent situation in the Clovis/Portales area is ridiculous.  I'm talking $1,000/month for an apartment ridiculous.  (Thankfully we had a good deal on our previous place)  Brian's grandma owned a two bedroom house in Portales that was currently occupied.  But the lease was up and guess who got to move in!  Whoop!  Cardboard box jungle, here we come!

The extra space was unbelievably amazing.  Hopefully I'll get some pics up soon.  So the unpacking process probably took about 3 months (I literally just got the spare bedroom in order this past weekend).  We love it so far and it really feels like a home we could start a family in. Eeeekkk!!!!
