There's no better time than now...

The years have really flown by, and I assume they are only going to move quicker now that we are 'adults' (I use that term loosely; we maintain all the attributes for what it means to be an adult, but I still don't quite feel like one yet...).

Here are the past few years in a nutshell:
2008: Marc and I meet during a dart league. Marc gets offered a job in Atlanta and moves with Snoop. I finish the school year...

2009: The school year has ended, I move to Atlanta with my new best friend Bowser and start working at a bar while applying for graduate school (an arduous task...) I get into graduate school at Georgia State University!

2010: Marc starts working at Wells Fargo, I am still in school and still slinging tacos, until I get a job teaching at a middle school. The year ends with a fabulous trip to Charleston where Marc pops the question - I cry and say something along the lines of "hell yea" and we celebrate with local beers.


2011: Wedding planning. All day. Every day. And we move into "The Latrine"... and quickly move back to our luxurious little apartment as soon as possible. (If you don't know about the Latrine, don't worry about it. You aren't missing anything other than broken air conditioners and mice.) But, we did throw an epic 4th of July Bacon Style party there. I also graduated from Georgia State!


2012: It's here!! Marc and I get married and have the most amazing and memorable wedding with all of our family and friends. We spend two weeks over the summer traveling to Germany and Croatia, complete with bier and heavy luggage frustrations. Upon our return, we decide it is time to leave our cozy apartment and start looking to buy a house...




2013: Starts off with closing on our beautiful home in Norcross, complete with a fenced in backyard for the beasts! ...and finding out one week later, on my birthday, that we are indeed expecting our first Bacon Bit!



Here we are, November 1st, 2013. Our Bacon Bit, Jack B, turns 1 month old tomorrow. Hence, this blog. I wish I could go back and recount all memories in detail, such as our wedding and honeymoon, but I have recently learned what it means to be a 'new mom' and realized that is never going to happen. It is 9:00 at night and I just brushed my teeth for the first time today. Detailed accounts of the past are not happening anytime soon. Sorry. I haven't even gotten our wedding pictures developed...

But, there is no time like the present! And our present is incredible. I hope to use this blog to update our friends and family on our lives, since they are certainly moving quickly.

Looking forward to sharing all of our fun moments with family and friends!

Love,
Lindsay, Marc, Jack B, Snoop & Bowser
