My boss called today and due to the extreme boredom all of us were experiencing at work, he let us go home early. I guess he figured we could play solitaire just as good at home. I was so glad....when the parking lot of your apartment complex is basically car less...not much is going to be going on. Zach isn't home from work yet, so I decided to blog before we leave to visit our families for Thanksgiving.

The weekend of our 6 month anniversary we decided to take a little day trip. Zach is a big fan of just "driving around." This time we had a specific destination in mind. We headed to Lake Livingston. As a kid my family had a lake house there and I have such wonderful memories of being there...so I was really excited to go back.

We headed to the old house first and drove in the gates and onto the property. The new owners were not there, so we wandered a little bit. It was great to see it but sad at the same time!! It looked quite different...not as beautiful and well landscaped as we used to keep it. If my mom could have seen it she would have had us out there raking and bagging leaves for old times sake! It really is a beautiful piece of property with great memories for me!!


After looking at the house, we went to the State Park to check it out as a potential future camping site. Let's just say we will be going there sometime soon. It was beautiful and we had a lot of fun wandering around. If anyone would be up for a weekend camping trip...let me know!!

Nice Picture...I know. All of the normal ones we took turned out terrible. This is sadly the best one! It was a great weekend and we had a wonderful little picnic dinner on the actual night of our 6 month anniversary.

I am off to load the car so we can get out of town. After we get back I will blog some pictures from Zachary's ring day last weekend. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend!!

First Entry!

I should start by saying that I had a first post posted in August and then never came back to post again. Reading people's blogs has made me want to really commit to it now...so we will see how diligent I become!!

I am just hoping that we have exciting enough things to blog about! Right now I am working full time as the manager of Sundance Apartments. I really love what I do! Zach is going to school full-time and working at Health For All a free clinic in Bryan. He is enjoying being able to do medical things and having the chance to use his Spanish. Next semester he will be getting his EMT and then paramedic certification. After graduation we will be off to medical school somewhere!! I am really excited for and proud of him.

We have been married for a little over 6 months now and it has been absolutely wonderful. I can't believe it has already been half a year! Zach is a wonderful husband and roomie. Our lifestyles seemed to just blend together. The differences and weird things about each other that we have seen are just funny. Like the way he hates to have the sheets tucked in the mattress and I love them tucked in nice and tight. Our bed is interesting looking with one side tucked and the other just loosely hanging! I guess you really learn to compromise in marriage.

Our Honeymoon Cruise to Jamaica, Grand Cayman, and Cozumel was absolutely wonderful. Zach had never been on a cruise before and we loved every minute of it. We had a wonderful upgraded ocean view cabin with a floor to ceiling window. Some of the best views were right in our room! Zach fell in love with the Caribbean and now we both have travel fever...which is bad when you don't have a disposable income!! We are hoping to make time for vacations often. We could really use on right now!



We are looking forward to our first holiday season as the Stevenson's!!!
