Welcome to our life!

Because we have family and friends all over the place, Jacob and I thought this blog would be a good way to keep up with everyone and let those most important to us know what is happening in our lives. A lot has changed in the last several months...and there are many more changes to come.

Adjusting to married life has not been near the challenge either of us was expecting. Aside from figuring out how to fit all of our clothes in one closet and deciding out how we can both get HOT showers at night, we are loving our life together. There are definitely adjustments to be made, though. Jacob and I both love to cook...but neither of us likes a lot of help in the kitchen. I have decided to enjoy his cooking as much as possible while I can because I will be doing it ALL when he deploys again. The same is true for cleaning the house. We both want to clean, but we don't want help cleaning. We'll get there eventually...

The wedding was beautiful and everything I had always dreamed my wedding would be. While I enjoyed certain parts of the planning process, I am VERY relieved it is over! We are so grateful to all of our close family and friends who took the time to share this special evening with us. We will cherish the memories forever!

While I am sure the news has reached almost everyone by now, I want to "officially" let everyone know that Jacob and I are expecting a baby boy. Noah Thomas Fallin is due March 23, 2009. Jacob and I both know that we have made plenty of mistakes; our lives certainly did not progress in the order we expected. We are both grateful to our Heavenly Father for His unending love and undeserved forgiveness. Jacob and I are also thankful for loving families who have chosen to support and not abandon us during this time in our lives. We know that Noah will be a blessing and we ask that you lift our family up in prayer as we prepare to welcome Noah into a loving, Christ-centered home.
