2-Month Life Recap

We figured for our very first "Bardi Party" blog post, we'd catch y'all up with what we've been up to the past couple of months. They've sure been busy!


On November 9, we got married! After a year and a half of long-distance dating and engagement, we were so grateful for the day we began the rest of our lives together without Skype call interruptions, 6-hour time zone differences, and not enough date nights. It was a beautiful fall day in Asheville for the wedding of our dreams. We are so blessed by all of our friends and family who supported us that day and who continue to encourage, love, and challenge us.


The day after our wedding, we flew to Jamaica for our honeymoon! We unplugged from all-things technology and soaked up some great R&R together. We ate way too much, swam with horses, got a little bronzer and made friends with the peacocks who lived outside our room. It was pretty great. 


We drove 15 hours to Coppell, TX for Wyatt to finish his Stateside portion of his internship with Family Legacy Missions International. We celebrated Thanksgiving with Amy's family who flew out to enjoy some must-sees with us in the Dallas area.


We bought our first Christmas tree, ordered Chinese takeout and decorated our quaint apartment to begin some good ol' family traditions. We also braved a very unexpected ice storm in Dallas with an intense case of cabin fever. Thank goodness for Netflix and heat, am I right?


After a little over a month of life in Texas, we were overjoyed to head back to our South in the Carolinas. We realized how great it was to be home when we spotted the first Cook Out in Augusta (and obviously had to stop). 


We visited with both of our families which made for a wonderful Christmas. Amy's dog, Milly, even dressed up in her Christmas jammies to celebrate (which can be viewed on our Instagram accounts @wyattgbardi and @amybardi). We made a trip to Columbia, SC to spend time with our best friends after the start of the New Year and it was the perfect "see you later."

And here we are! We're just 4 days away from jumping on a plane to Zambia with two one-way tickets. Y'all would not believe the amount of stuff we're about to try to fit into 6 bags. Photos will follow, don't y'all worry. 

Be sure to sign up to receive these updates via email with the form on the right-hand side of our blog. And we'll be sure to keep y'all updated as the Bardi Party moves to Zambia!

Love,
W&A
