5 of 30

In a world were Marriage is taken so lightly I find it so refreshing that I have found several bloggers are married! Not to mention married but seriously showing their husbands some love in their posts! I love it. 

Marriage has been on my mind lately because this week we are headed to Orlando for a wedding in Disney World. I CAN NOT WAIT! Getting married in the "Happiest Place on the Earth"? Yes please.  I am so excited for our friends and I'm super excited we get to take a part in their day.
 Me and my husband Ryan have been married for little over a year and the question that everyone seems to ask newly married couples (besides "when are you having a baby" question) is "How do you like the married life?" or "How is being married?" When we first got married I didn't know how to answer this- marriage was great but I didn't think that I was really qualified to answer their questions after being married for less than 6 months. Ok so obviously being married for a year doesn't make me a expert on marriage but I love answering this question now. Especially if its from a close friend.
I tell them I love it, I really love being married. I love waking up to him, I love coming home after a long day at work and not having to say a thing and just curl up on the couch and take a nap, I love that he gets my stupid jokes and I love when I catch him checking me out from across the room, I love that we have the same goals in life but I mainly just love him. 
Most people think that I'm kidding, like I should have answered them another way, I guess tell them that Ryan never picks up his socks or doesn't take out the trash. I'm not really sure what they want me to say. All I know is that I am still after 6 years of dating Ryan crazy about this man. I never thought that my feelings could ever be this strong.Don't get me wrong everyone has their ups and downs, we fight and bicker just like everyone else. (Maybe even more because I am extremely stubborn) But at the end of the day I get to lay down by my absolute best friend and the love of my life. I wouldn't trade it for a single thing! 
Whew that was a longer post then I intended. I guess all this wedding excitement and that Thanksgiving being right around the corner had me thinking how lucky I am! 
Have a great week everyone!

  2. I've been married for over 5 years, and it just keeps getting better. In today's world of weak marriages and quickie divorces, we feel very blessed to have found one another. Have fun in Orlando, and I wish nothing but the best for you and your husband!
