Aruba!

We did it!

We are now sealed for time and all eternity! The sealing was perfect, along with the luncheon and reception.. (if I can call it that, it was more of a party). The honeymoon was so fun, but we would probably not recommend Aruba to anyone wanting a non-stop excitement vacation. The beach is beautiful, but step foot across the street from the hotel and you are in a desert land. Iguanas that are not fun to look at while they are under your lay out chair are everywhere. And not to mention ugly cactus and flying dust particles constantly blowing in the hot wind. And I hate to say that the cab drivers, hotel staff, and locals were not the friendliest of islanders. But, we were lucky to have such an experience and to get away from real life for a week. And we brought back great tans. We are happy to be home to our little yellow house in Provo. We've had a wonderful start to a very wonderful life to come together.

Oh Hyrum.

So Hyrum told me maybe I shouldn't post the pictures because then no one will be excited when they get our pictures with the announcements...so, I'm not going to. But....visit photographybymckenzie.com then click on her blog to see some of them...

Engagement Pictures!

We finally got our engagement pictures taken! I will post a few later. Let me know which one you think is "the one". Wedding plans are coming along great...all we have officially offically planned is our honeymoon. Aruba here we come! I guess that's the most important part anyways. We'll be flying out the morning after our wedding and staying for a week in Aruba in a Marriot hotel right on the beach! We couldn't be more excited.
Oh, and Judy is so kind to make all the nieces matching skirts for the reception. They are adorable!
And Kathi is making our video! (Sorry I need to get you some pictures)
I'm so lucky and grateful to be marrying into such a great family!

Tons of makeup and two hours later...

Hyrum and Judy came by to watch me get my pictures taken. We don't believe in superstitions so him seeing me in my dress was just fine.
