so...I'm married now

and you can see the pictures here. I am so happy I picked Duston Todd as the photographer.
The film images are timeless,
rich with color,
full of personality,
and seeping with artistic quality.

One excellent part of us hiring Duston is that he gives his clients a physical print of each photo that he takes--engagements, bridals, and wedding day. I am so excited to get these!

marriage...yeah, it's wonderful! It's an adventure, and I love it. I am grateful for the routine we have now, and for the little time we get to spend together (which is, of late, becoming more and more a study time).

we have an apartment.
it is very beige.
and very much still full of stuff that we don't know what to do with.
We bought a couch! and some curtains! and we got a dining table from my parents. We had to take two legs off of it to get it in our apartment, but it's in there now.
We may get it put together someday.

I am still in school.
I love the bus ride to and from school every day
approx. 1 hr 15 mins.
usually I sleep, but sometimes I call an old friend, read, listen to music, or chat with the random person sitting next to me. My favorite so far is the German gentleman who met his wife from being pen pals. He's pretty cool.

Alexander also is a bus rider.
He loves saving the economy from petroleum use
I love saving the environment from pollution.
We don't talk about politics very often.

I think that's all for now.
Oh yeah. We're not having kids yet,
thanks for asking :)

How I picked

This is for you, Kamille.

I was agonizing over this decision, and finally decided to let it go, since I had already come to terms with the fact that I'd have to decide last minute. And that is exactly what happened.

One night, I woke up with a splitting headache. I could not sleep, nor could Alexander. I asked him to give me a blessing. It was 3:30 am, and he said, "well, you're going to have to decide what your full name is right now." I did not hesitate. "Katherine Sadler Lovett".

So, I guess I was right, it was last minute, in the middle of the night, and while I was clearly in pain. Brilliant.
