Right now we are trying to write all of our thank you cards from the wedding :) Whew! It is alot of work! We have one unknown gift. It had no name written on the box, no card, no means of identification. It is plaid multicolor wrapping paper. If you gave us this gift we would personally like to thank you so please get in contact with either me or Seth please!

1 month!

We have been married almost one month!! EKS! haha. I would give married life an A+ during our first month. I know that's probably normal but I think it's because I didn't expect it to be this good. Everyone is like...welcome to misery blah blah blah. But it's what you make it. And so far it has been great! Working together and communication is the key. Seth has been helping me alot around the house and yes we are still setting everything up! Taking forever right. haha. I think everyone that knows me would be very impressed to know that I have been cooking! :D woohoo! Yes I have! I'm not so creative yet. I am still going through my cookbooks. Man! They have some good looking stuff in there! And the best part is Seth is loving it! lol. I honestly thought he would hate my food. Spit it out on the floor. But he has been enjoying it and eating my portions too! yeah for me! Today my dad came over for a little bit to hang out. I made him lunch! Can you believe it. AND...drum roll.... I officially baked! haha. My dad loved it! He said it was very good! We set up our computer desk in our spare room. Looks great! Can't wait to get everything set up! haha. All we have are boxes and boxes. We cleaned out a little so atleast you can walk in the room but it's a mess! The last room to set up. I'm excited! Our little 'home' is starting to look nice. :)

If you don't know me and Seth got married!! July 18, 2009 I married my best friend and my lover! The wedding was absolutely fabulous! It was so pretty. Everything was perfect! O yes...hehe...except the cake fell. But it was no biggie. It just scared me but I was able to move out of the way quick enough that not one drop got on me or the dress. We were testing out gravity...and it works! hehe. Everyone had a blast! And it was so beautiful. It was perfect. More than what I ever imagined my wedding to be. And all thanks to my wedding planner...my momma! :D When we get pics I will post them up.


Today is our 2 week anniversary! I would say that married life has been GREAT! I mean der...Seth is the best man ever! I could not ask for more and I know that I am very lucky to have in my life and now as my husband. OOO Weird! I'm not use to that! We left to go on our honeymoon on Monday (July 20) to St. Lucia. One problemo...we got stuck in Puerto Rico for 2 days! We absolutely hated it and will probably never go back! I will not go into details on why we didn't like it. Good news is that we did finally make it to St. Lucia! And we got our stay extended a couple more days so the time that we expected to stay we did get to fulfill all that. We stayed for 6 nights :D And had an absolute blast! It is so beautiful! Geezzzzz!! I loved it! I would totally recommend everyone to go there! It's so pretty! We went to The Pitons, botanical gardens (although all of St. Lucia looked like the botanical gardens to me) and waterfall, the walk-in volcano, went snorkeling, kayaking, and our favorite the zipline! Seth reserved us our very own special candlelight dinner but first suprised me with flowers and chocolates on the bed with some champagne. (See best hub-hub ever!) We had an amazing time! It was very relaxing and very much needed. I absolutely loved it! But now it's back to reality. As soon as we got back we started moving into our apartment! It's such a mess but we are slowly putting things together. I can see that it will take awhile. haha. I think that this has been the hardest part for me...moving out. I'm not like most kids who can't wait to go off to college or get married so they can get away from their parents. That has never been a perogative of mine. As you can tell I've always lived with my dad and that has been by choice. I never left home to go to school and I was very blessed and graduated from a great university! I have a great relationship with my parents...both my mom and dad. I have a very very close bond with my dad. It's nothing that I am ashamed of. It's something I am very proud of because most kids will never be able to experience that kind of love. So leaving home has been a bit rough on me. That's the home that I have lived in since I was 6 years old. Alot of memories there. But the best part is that Seth has been very understanding. He left home a week after he graduated high school for bootcamp. hehe. When he talks about his story it makes me feel a little bit better :) Atleast he understands. It's just hard leaving home. All the changes you have to go through. But I am very excited about the new chapter in my life and I will definately keep you guys updated. Here are a few pics from our honeymoon...
