India

In case any of you didn't already know, I'm GOING TO INDIA! I hate to seem like I'm bragging, but I'm just so effing excited I can barely stand it.

The other day I woke up and realized that all of my dreams are coming true, and its all so surreal. I married the love of my life, I have an amazing family, I have the best friends in the whole world and I'm getting to do the thing I love most: travel.

I'll have plenty of posts updating you on all the lovely details of the trip, but for now I just want to say that there are not words to explain how grateful I am for AJ in my life. I know it sounds so cheesy, but he just lights up my day. And for those of you who are fortunate enough to know him, I'm sure you'll agree. Its just like this energy follows him around where ever he goes and gets everyone in a great mood. Its like magic, really.

I suppose some people may think its odd that I'm going to India for a month without my husband. But for us its not really odd at all. I mean, OF COURSE we're going to miss each other, we're best friends. But its stuff like this that convinces me that I was always meant to be with AJ, because when I told him I wanted to take this trip he was SO supportive. I think its because he knows me and knows how important it is to me to see the world. Its my passion and as my husband he is encouraging me to follow it. He is so amazing. I don't think a lot of husbands would react the way he did. I love our marriage. We are in such a good place right now and I honestly believe its because we both encourage the other to be themselves. I think a lot of marriages are full of unrealistic expectations and ideas of what love is supposed to be like. I guess what I'm trying to say is that the reason I love what AJ and I have is because if feels REAL.

Ahhhh...life is so good.

Oh yeah, did I mention we also signed papers for our house today??!! We should have keys by Monday! Seriously, could it get any better than this?
