So my (our) fairy tale has finally begun, after what seems like a lifetime of waiting we are finally married! And let me tell you it is exactly that, a fairy tale. The wedding, for us anyways, was a complete blast- but a wirl wind.  I honestly don't remember much, just the really important parts that stand out here and there in my mind! It feels GREAT not to have to come home and plan or make something for the wedding. All I have left is to write my much needed thank you notes to all those who came and helped us get our house looking like a home,and then the wedding will just be a perfect memory.

So, I'm sure everyone remembers their first time going to the temple... you remember the fact that you don't really remember anything at all except that you were just trying to keep up with everything that was going on- if this is not how you feel... then you my friend are just a complete  genius with a ridiculously good memory.... but for all the rest of us that's all we remember. So unfortunately  for me, the sealing was just the same. Being that it was my second time in the temple, and a completely different ordinance... i remember pretty much nothing- except again, trying to keep up. I remember walking in with Shane and seeing everyones faces.... and sitting down. Now I know the sealer talked to us and told us lots of things... but i remember nothing that he said... haha... It's sad cause it was my wedding but I just have to laugh, because all I remember is sitting across from Shane, looking at him (thinking how sweet it was that he was tearing up) completely not able to listen to what was going on because, I too was tearing up and for some reason that day my nose was like WATER. So again, I'm sitting there, across from shane, holding his hand trying my best to remember this moment.....and remember not to let go of this hand cause while trying to keep my nose from literally dripping all over my face, and then my SLEEVE starts falling off. So one handed  I'm pulling up my sleeve... repeatedly while repeatedly wiping my nose... sleeve, nose, sleeve, nose, sleeve, nose... and then we kissed...and yes... i got snot all over his face. hot huh... perfect first kiss.... and thats all i remember...  haha... but even with that.... it was still perfect and Shane didn't even mind. :) Shane, fortunately, remembers more... so I say to him "Shane, tell me about our wedding"... and he does haha!

The reception I remember much better. and It was great. We enjoyed it at least...but of course, people didn't dance. lame. It was perfect though, I wish I could re live that day over and over...Months of planning, and the days gone in a split second!

Now, the honeymoon was a different story! haha we had a wonderful time, but... I have horrible luck, so now that we are married, the luck i am so blessed with, is now a blessing to shane ...He's so happy about it too.
So besides the fact that we got stranded in the ocean because of fog, and the fact that we missed a wedding and our couch people coming because of this... and besides the fact that Shane backed into a HUGE ACE CEMENT pole and made cute additions to the visual aesthetics of our car... He got a HORRIBLE rash all over his stomach  and arms from something he touched in Mexico...on our HONEYMOON!!!... so from wednesday night until saturday when we got off the boat we spent a lot of time sleeping to help him feel better.... haha. Sounds like my luck huh? But finally after we got off the boat we went to a doctor and he got a shot and WOW what a difference, in two days it's almost gone and he is back to being his HOT self ;)

We haven't uploaded pictures yet, or got the wedding day photos back from our photographer but when we will add on and post a few... more updates to come soon!
