It's been 2 1/2 weeks since fiance Thom officially became my husband, and in the whirlwind since, time has flown by. I'll begin with the wedding day itself. Thom and I couldn't have asked for better weather. Rainy and stormy days leading up to June 20th had us a little concerned, but on our wedding day, the sun was shining and the weather was beautiful. While people warned me that there's no such thing as a perfect wedding, I would say ours was about as close as it could be. I kept trying to "be in the moment" and remember every little aspect of it. But I still look back on it in a dream-like way. There were lots of smiles, a few happy tears and so many beautiful memories.

The day after our wedding, Thom and I boarded a plane for Europe. We spent the next week in Copenhagen, Denmark, but also visited nearby Sweden. We had a great time, saw lots of attractions, and walked until we thought we couldn't walk anymore. I have lots of stories from our trip and am anxious to share them with you. For now, we are settling into our new, married, life and enjoying every minute of it.
