The truth is
I am blessed, and I am happy.
Today I'm celebrating one hell of a first year being married to Jody Michael Powell.
I love that name. I love that guy. I'm a little emotional.
A year ago today, Jody and I walked hand in hand into a courthouse, giggled our way (ok, mostly just I giggled) through our vows, and then ran out the door as a married couple, completely worry-free, in love, and headed to the beach. Heck yes.
Papers were signed, id's were issued, and we were well on our way to being real-life grown-ups. Whatever that meant.
Well, it means a lot more than I expected. When I took the big leap from Montana to the East Coast, I had no idea what was in store for me. I had no idea what it meant to make a marriage work. Being married to Jody has taught me so much about myself, and I've gotten to truly know the incredible man that I married, and today I am 100 percent sure that I love him 100 times more than I did the day I married him; which was about 100 percent even then.
Today, I'm praising God for his love for us and for the hand that he's laid on our marriage. I could not/would not have survived any part of my life without his grace, and I'm ever thankful and always aware of his workings in my life. He is good.

You guys are adorable :) So happy that you're happy together!
That leap from Montana to the East Coast was a big leap. I am glad that you guys are so happy together and will always be. Happy 1st anniversary, I will not forget that summer that you spent here as a married woman without your husband, planning a wedding:) Seriously, who has ever done that before? Love you both.
I'm so proud of you, Kay. Seriously almost got choked up reading this. You are an amazing girl and I'm praising the Lord for you and Jody and your marriage even as I write this :)
