Our Honeymoon - Michigan, 2014

Well, since I'm not supposed to get my wedding pictures until next week, I figured I'd go ahead and share some other things with you - specifically our honeymoon! 


My first plane ride! (except as a baby, which doesn't count ;)
Nathan's Grandparents and Aunt, own a cute little "cottage" on the banks of Maston Lake, Michigan - about 40 minutes from Grand Rapids. It was definitely our top pick for honeymoon spots, and it was just perfect! The weather was pretty chilly when we were first there, perfect for night time fires! And then slowly warmed up into the high 70's. 

For most of the time we just hung around the cottage, enjoying being with each other. When you have a chaperone around you all the time, just being alone is pretty amazing! We still talk about how crazy it is just to be riding around in the car without anyone else there! We also enjoyed exploring the area around us. 

We played games, ate pumpkin spice cinnamon rolls (yum!), saw a movie in a little theater, explored cute little towns, Amish country, had dinner with Nathan's cousin, and drove around just to drive around. It was absolutely perfect.








Until next time...

I'm married!!

Last time I posted here, I was still Ms. Jessica Amanda Sowers. It was the beginning of my wedding month. Things were starting to get crazy and real. 

Now, as I write, I am Mrs. Jessica Amanda Frook (For real guys! =O). It has been a month since our wedding. I am now a wife and am in the midst of settling into my new routine and setting up a home for my husband (Yay!!) and I. 


If you would have talked with me a month ago, I would have told you I was worried, stressed, and most of all impatient! But also kind of starting to realize that a time in my life was almost over - a time I would never get back. Now? I almost can't remember when Nathan and I weren't married, funny how that works. Nathan and I were just talking about how it seemed to take forever for our wedding day to come, and now that it's over and we're married, it seems like it happened so fast and we feel like we've been married forever. People assured me that's how it would be - wish I would have believed them ;)



I am hoping to get back into blogging and soon there will definitely be some posts about our wedding (We get all our pictures soon!!), our honeymoon, and how our lives are going in this transition period. But for now, I just wanted to say hi and let you know that Mrs. Frook is still alive ;) and very very happy and blessed!

Until next time...
