6 Months Being Married

So on Thursday the 28th, Steve and I celebrated our 6 month Anniversary. It may sound funny that were celebrating on our 1/2 year anniversary, but we're just starting out and it's exciting. We celebrated by going out to eat at Outback Steakhouse and just embracing what we've learned since we have been married.

Some things that I have learned being married:
- The toilet seat being left open and the shower curtain being left open aren't a big deal.
- You don't always have time to be a perfect wife (don't always have time to cook, clean, etc.)
- Spend your money wisely (I learned this before, but especially need to exercise this now)
- You really do get better grades in school (I think it's just the fact that you don't want to spend as much time studying when your dating/engaged so your grades slip/lose focus)
These are just a few of the things I have learned!

Things I Love About Married Life:
- Not dating (seriously it's the best feeling in the world to know you are married to your eternal companion)
- You only have to worry about cleaning up you and your spouses things (no more roommate dishes, clothes everywhere, etc.)
- I just love being with Steve everyday and not having to do long-distance again!
- Have a little bit more money to spend on groceries so I can cook healthy meals!
- Going to the temple with my eternal companion!
These are just a few of the things I love!

Overall, I love married life and all of the perks that come with it. Yes, there are struggles at times but they work out in the long run.
