AH HA! I figured out how to make a slideshow! Sheesh, they don't make it easy do they? They should make a "how to page" with steps of how to do everything.
There aren't a lot of pictures (compared to my over 1,000 pictures taken that day and I'm not even kidding) because it wouldn't let me add any more. Apparently I reached my quota for the month... ???
Kalli Smith was my photographer and she did a GREAT job. These pictures are the originals. When we get everything edited I will probably switch them out. But don't you think they are awesome?! They haven't even been touched by photoshop yet!
I hope to blog about the honeymoon soon with a few pictures (G Rated).

Rules of the Game
What I've learned from my vast experience so far in marriage (2 1/2 months) is that it's the little things that matter. When Eric and I are getting along the best we are very conscious of each other's needs and we are more than happy to do things for each other. If I need a drink and I go to get up, Eric will jump up and tell me to stay and then as fast as he can with out spilling (he's such a little boy and I love it!) he'll bring me the drink I request.
I've come to learn about myself that it's really important for me to feel appreciated. I need Eric to thank me for cleaning up and folding the laundry and doing the dishes. Otherwise, the next time it needs to get done, I'm a lot slower doing it because I don't feel the motivation.
On the flip side, it's also the small things that seem to hurt each other the most. When one of us just gets up and leaves the other we feel abandoned. When one of us chooses to do something different (like put in a different movie than discussed) than we agreed upon, we feel that our opinion doesn't matter.
Today, I was sad that Eric didn't kiss me goodbye but he apologized and said he loved me and we are good again. We are learning to be more careful and think about the other before we act but I suppose we probably won't ever be perfect at it. That's why forgiving and asking for forgiveness are so important.
I know that I haven't been married for more than 3 months but it feels like I've been with Eric forever. We are crazy about each other and maybe it's our passion that makes it hard to get along sometimes but I can't imagine sharing this new experience with anyone else. Love you Eric.
You rock my socks!

Part of the "in" crowd
So it seems that the newest and coolest thing now is having a web page and I hate to feel left out so, of course, I jumped on the band wagon. :) I'm still learning so my page will be lame for a while but I hope to figure it out. Loves.
