Life at the Lake

I'm just gonna drive up by the lake
And put my ass in a lawn chair, toes in the clay
Not a worry in the world, a PBR on the way
Life is good today, life is good today

- Zac Brown Band


In the words of Lake Oconee native Zac Brown, life is good at the lake.  I thought I would post some pictures of our house and the lake.  We live in a wonderful golf community with lake access that is about 1/4 of a mile from the house.  Lucy has discovered that she likes to swim so we usually end our walks with a quick dip.  I was so happy to see that she finally isn't scared of the water, though I think its the absence of waves that makes her more comfortable.  The beach is our next obstacle....

Going to give this a try...

Well, we've been married for 43 days so I figure we are way late in beginning the quintessential married persons blog.  No, I've been meaning to start one of these for awhile now and since I have some time on my hands while waiting for the NCLEX I figured now is the perfect time.  Jason is busy at work since it is their busy season and I am trying to settle into life at Lake Oconee.  Between NCLEX studying and job searching, Jason and I are truly enjoying married life and it is so wonderful to finally live in the same place.




The wedding was wonderful and it was everything we could have possibly dreamed.  It was so amazing and meant so much to have all our close family and friends in one place.  I know I will probably never have that again and I made a point to soak in the moment every chance I had.  Even with a little rain and a lot of furry people ("Furries") the wedding was a success and ended with me being married to my best friend.

The honeymoon was spectacular.  We would definitely recommend the DR to anyone who desires relaxation, luxury, culture, and the friendliest people you will ever meet.  We absolutely took advantage of our time off and relaxed like pros.  We spent all day, everyday at the beach or the pool, playing ping pong, kayaking, reading, trying different fruity drinks, and eating amazing Dominican food.  I could get used to honeymooning on a yearly basis...

 

So begins our lives together on this oh-so exciting journey.  Jumping in feet first... and loving every minute of it.
