Last day at sea..
One night at dinner!
honeymooners!
Love this man.. :)
About to head to COZUMEL! We had so much fun shopping and walking around downtown.
Progreso! We were tired.. but enjoyed never-ending Coronas and the beach!

Enjoying the windy deck. 
About to head to our first dinner on the big boat! So happy to be away...Well, I know that I have a daily reader, or at least someone who checks to see if I have updated daily.. so Daddy, I am going to be more motivated to update! Not that we don't talk every day anyway... After all, I am so blessed to have parents who are also my best friends.
Blogging really helps me to process life's events and gives me a place to look back on to see all that has changed.
Matthew and I had a great honeymoon. Time seemed to move at a different pace than it does at home where we have bills, jobs, a dog and chores. My incredible parents took care of Vegas while we were gone. My daddy stayed with her and kept her company and we didn't worry about her one second while we were gone!
The week we got home, PaPa was not doing very well. He was ready to go and be with his Jesus. I am so thankful that Matt and I were able to be with the family during his final hours. I couldn't help but put my self in B's position and think about how I would feel if it were my father. I am certainly not ready for that day, however, my husband already prays for my heart. When you lose someone you love, it is an ache that you really can't explain. It is so final and irreversible.
But when you know where they will spend eternity, it is easier to say goodbye, see you soon.
I am really enjoying teaching at the Chinese school. I love teaching elementary-aged students. I am thankful to be working because I think if I wasn't I would spend too much of my day waiting for Matt to get home. This month we will be hunting for a house to rent. We have plans in place that should allow us to buy our first home late next year.
Life is so good and I am so thankful for where we are in life. I am enjoying being Matt's wife and learning so much about myself and him. I often catch glimpses of the woman I want to be, and I know that surrendering to Christ in every way is the only way I will get there. It really does take three. I say that truly believing it, but I'm not sure that my life always reflects that. One day at a time, Lord please use me even in my weakness and immaturity.
Side note: My little brother is playing the World Series of Poker Main Event in Vegas!! I am so impressed by the man that he is becoming. I would not be the woman I am without my brother and I am so thankful for his friendship and the inspiration he brings to so many.
How sweet it is to be Lindsi Norris. the people in my life are amazing..
OH!!!!! and I am 25 now. Cait treated me to a fabulous birthday lunch at Gloria's! So fun! We shopped a little and then Vegas and I enjoyed a birthday nap while we waited for Matthew to get home. Then, so many of our wonderful friends came over and celebrated with me! Today I have birthday enchiladas with my mom & dad, Matty and my Grams.
Okay, if I sit here any longer I will think of more things to update about... So, off to sleep. Chinese school in the morning!
Love,
L. Norris
