Nittany LionAh, marriage. It’s a beautiful thing. After our wedding of awesomeness, Andrew and I had a couple days to ourselves so we could get used to living in the apartment together. It was strange for me, moving into an apartment that Andrew had already been living in for a year, because it felt a little bit like I was invading. It was probably more weird for him though, since he had been living the bachelor life and I suddenly was there, with all my stuff. We’re still getting used to the living together thing, actually.

But anyway, a couple days after the wedding we got to go on a road trip to State College to stay at a bed & breakfast. I had never been there before, but Andrew had, so he got to show me his favorite sites like the Creamery (huge delicious ice cream cones and happy fun time workers!) and the University Park campus. I loved our bed & breakfast; the owners were very nice and our room was great with a king-sized bed and a hot tub and a fireplace (even though we never got the fireplace to work!) We had a great time while we were down there, enjoying each other’s company and taking pictures every time we went to eat somewhere, like the State College Diner and the Waffle Shop. Mmm, the Waffle Shop has great orange juice, let me tell you. I highly recommend it.

The drive home was wonderful, we took the scenic route back since we weren’t in any hurry. It was way better than the way we came, which was I-80, and we had to sit at a dead stop on the highway for half an hour behind a semi because of construction. And it rained. But on the way back we drove through Cook’s Forest, and we saw Mount Nittany and it was just very lovely. It actually rained while we were at the bed & breakfast too, but it was a huge thunderstorm that we watched roll in from the garden in the backyard. Very cool. All in all, it was a wonderful start to our marriage and I look forward to more road trips and getaways with Andrew throughout the rest of our life together.

Our Wedding Party stands behind usWe’re married! The wedding was a blast and it was only just the beginning! We’d like to thank everyone who joined us for the wedding and especially for everyone who helped out beforehand. We couldn’t have done it without you!

Married life is spectacular and surprising! It may be tough when you have to fight to reclaim stolen sheets during the night, but it’s worth it in the morning when you get to share breakfast with someone. Plus we can fall asleep watching movies and not have to drive the other home.

Our apartment looks a lot more grown up now that we’ve got some nice presents to fill it.  Thanks to everyone who chipped in to get us started.

We’ve posted some photos of the wedding, but stay tuned because there are lots more coming!

[UPDATE] The photos just keep on coming.  For our entire photo gallery, visit the Wedding of Awesomeness Photo Album on Facebook!  (Anyone can view them, even without a Facebook account.)
