Ok....so I know my last post was announcing my engagement, but since, we have gotten married and made it through 6 months of marriage! I can't believe it's been that long! Time flies by way too fast, yet we still feel like it was just yesterday that we got married!
It sure has been an interesting 6 months. My wonderful husband has had a couple serious health issues in the last few months. In November he got the swine flu and was forced to miss over a week of work. Then just over a month ago, he got MRSA staph infection in his elbow and was admitted into the hospital for 4 days. After that it was 3 weeks of constant home health care nurses, iv antibiotics, and lots and lots of blood work. Our house looked like a hospital for month!
Thankfully he has recovered but the day he went back to work, he (and 40 others) were told they would be laid off in one week. That was definitely and unexpected surprise! Now he is trying to find a new job. Unfortunately with the economy the way it is, jobs are not easy to come by. But, we are trusting God and we know this happened for reason. He has always been faithful to provide for our needs and we know He will bring Andy the right job at the right time.
As for me...well...just 2 day after we got back from our honeymoon, my car just suddenly stopped as I was pulling into the Walmart parking lot. It took 3 hours to get a tow truck to take me and my car home and unfortunately it was the transmission and we haven't been able to get it fixed. Being left without a car definitely made life quite a bit more difficult. I had to drop my classes for the semester since I had no way to get to school. So since I had to quit school for the time being, I have had the privilege of being a full time wife! I have come to find that there is no better job in the world!
We have definitely had a lot of ups and downs over the last 6 months but over all it has been wonderful!!! I am married to the best man in the world and I couldn't imagine my life without him. We've learned to rely on God and each other through the trials life has thrown at us, but His strength is perfect in all things and He is faithful to see us through anything!
HAPPY 6 MONTH ANNIVERSARY SWEETHEART!!!!!
