On being a grown-up: We aren't children anymore

{Me and Chris with his cousins, Hannah and Thomas - who were a part of our wedding party, during our rehearsal dinner}

Since our parents have left and we've been "officially" on our own, we've tackled some grown-up responsibilities. Quite frankly, these things shouldn't be so novel to us since people five years younger than we are already doing these things; however, Chris and I aren't the kind to jump hastily into things. We chose to make school our lives for a little longer than what may be deemed normal and we are just now experiencing being a grown-up. 


Some of our first grown-up tasks include:

• grocery shopping together
• paying bills
• opening a joint-account
• opening a joint savings account
• paying rent
• cooking full meals on a regular basis 

Just to name a few (I know some of you are thinking, OMG, shut up!).

Being a grown up is exciting and traumatizing at the same time, but I think I'm kind of liking it.
