Jill Duggar (Dillard) and husband Derick have returned from their honeymoon and are now setting up their home in Arkansas. The couple shared photos and gave information about what they did during their honeymoon and how life has changed since saying, "I do."

"I have the most amazing guy," Jill told People. "Everything about being married is awesome."

After their wedding, which took place in front of more than 1,000 people and will be aired on TLC at a later date, the couple took off for Kill Devil Hills in North Carolina, where they rented a house on the beach.

"Every morning, we would wake up and go out and sit on the deck and listen to the waves," Jill said. "It was beautiful. It was very private without a lot of people there yet for the season. It was so relaxing. It was really pretty there," she said of their visit to Cape Hatteras Island. "It was wonderful. We were able to be away for almost a full week."

During their honeymoon, they spent time touring the Wright Brothers National Memorial and enjoyed a picnic lunch on the island. Jill shared a photo on the beach with fans and again said how in love she was with her new husband. Now that the traditional honeymoon is over, Jill is busy adjusting to married life, which means cutting back on quite a few things. No longer does she have to cook or clean for her huge family – it's just her and Derick.

"I love to cook and have been able to do a lot of cooking," she explained. "Cooking for two people is a learning experience in and of itself. Our house is really close to Derick's work," she added. "I have been able to drop him off in the morning and meet him for lunch, so we can spend more time together. It has really been a lot of fun."

The couple is truly happy and glad they waited to save their first kiss for their wedding day, which made it all the more special. Fans will get to see the first kiss and the entire wedding during a TLC special airing sometime later this year.
