Well I am sure you guessed it, we have been married for 2 weeks and 2 hours!!!!
These past two weeks have gone by so fast and I haven't posted anything for a little while so I will give a little update on the past two weeks. (when I say little I don't necessarily mean little, I mean I will let you know how amazing life has been and I don't care how much space it takes!!!!
Okay so wedding week was totally crazy, My MOH (Maid of Honor) Sheri Sharp, got into Utah on Monday night and she was a total life saver. She has helped with many weddings before and knew exactly what needed to be done so that I wouldn't be a complete wreck all week. I am so very grateful that she was able to come it meant the world to me. Then on Wednesday my other MOH (Matron of Honor) Heather Briggs got in and Things were going great she was amazing as well she went right to work along with Sheri to make sure things got done. I love them both so much they have been such great strengths in my life and I am so thankful for them!!!
I Love these girls!!!!
I Love these girls!!!!
So wedding day went amazing, there were no glitches that I am aware of and that is probably a really good thing!!! The weather had been bad all week so we couldn't have the reception outside (which kinda made me sad) but both John and my families came together on Thursday night and helped us set up everything it looked wonderful when I left at 9:30 to go to sleep. They didn't finish until midnight I believe. So at the Temple it was amazing all of our Families were there and they look so pleased with us. The weather outside of the temple for pictures and such was not horrible. It was a little windy and overcast but not horrible at all. We got all of our family pictures done and then moved on to our individual pictures. it was really nice and relaxing. no matter how much I hate taking serious pictures I really enjoyed taking these ones. Maybe because of all the bliss from getting married and everything or maybe I am just a natural at taking pictures!?!?! ;)
After pictures we headed to the reception, it turned out wonderful. I was so pleased with how well it turned out!!! and I was even more pleased with the Cakes!!!!! So I am assistant coaching volleyball at Grantsville High School, and our head coach does cakes and she is absolutely amazing. We weren't going to have a real cake we were just going to order sheet cakes from Costco. but at the last minute (like a week before) I decided that I wanted to get john a surprise so I thought what he would like and he is always talking about corvettes and how he loves them so I decided to see if Stefanie (head coach) could make a cake corvette. I sent her a picture and she said that she would see what she could do. Then she asked if I wanted her to make me a cake that was for john and I to cut and eat. So she did and they turned out so good :) John was so surprised and so excited that when we went to eat it like a week later he couldn't bare to cut it in half so I had to. :)
So the reception was so amazing and the food was so good, and the company was amazing!!!! I want to thank everyone who was able to make it. You helped make our special day absolutely wonderful!!!!
Well after the reception (I wont go into detail don't worry) we went back to our house (yes we have a house how cool is that) and John had given Mark and Shanna the keys to our house and had told them to make it pretty or something like that. I never asked what he asked them to do but when we got home there were rose petals on the floor into the bedroom and he had gotten our new bed set up and all of the new (used) furniture moved in. it looked absolutely wonderful :) I was so happy!!!
The next morning my parents drove us to the airport and we flew to San Diego. It was real nice we got to stay on the beach and It was a blast!! We were there for a whole week. We went to the beach a few times, watched the sunset, went to a diner at the end of the pier, went to the San Diego Temple, and of course went to Disneyland!!!!
Ruby's Diner!!!
John was super excited if you couldn't tell :)
The view from our condo!!!
There has to be a sunset kissing picture its a law or something!!!!
My first ocean sunset (well that I remember at least)
San Diego Temple (talking to Mom, my bad)
Kara's cousin Strider got us into Disneyland and took this picture for us!!!
Of course the one ride I just had to ride was under some sort of construction or something :(
Look Mom, i'm a big boy now I can ride all the rides!!!!
I have the best husband in the world, he stood in line with me for and hour and a half to meet Rapunzel and Flynn Ryder!!!!
Well that about sums up the past two weeks of my married life. Now it is back to real life!!! :)
Oh and the most exciting news so far......I am an Aunt!!!! Shanna and Mark had Connor Warr
