It's OFFICIAL - We're Mr. & Mrs.!

That's right! We finally got married! It all happened on June 25th in the Portland, OR temple, and it was a perfect day! All except for one minor detail involving these two...

These are my twin nephews - Grant and Collin. Now, I know what you are thinking...they fell in the water, and took me with them (or maybe you were not thinking that at all) - well I must say that is highly unlikely considering they are not even two years old. Mind you this all happened while Nathan and were in the temple, waiting for our wedding party to arrive...so unbeknownst to us, these little munchkins got a hold of some car keys and managed to lock themselves in the car. Pretty funny now, but I'm sure that Amber and Zach (in-laws) were freaking out about it. Apparently they called the fire station and everything in the temple parking lot. I'm not sure how, but those little guys managed to get out of there safe and sound. So, the only thing that happened was that it delayed the wedding a little bit, which was totally not a big deal.

Anyway, now that I told the funny story of the day, I can give you some details about the wedding. We got married at 11am, more like 11:30 because of the "problem," and then we came out...



so happy, SO MARRIED! It was a crazy feeling, let me tell you, and I know that Nathan would agree with me. Our colors were yellow, black, and white - as you can see. I loved them! I had so much fun with them. We took pictures for awhile, three hours to be exact.

The photographer was Deyla Huss, HIGHLY recommended. She was so fun, and is from the Portland area. She even made Nathan like taking pictures, how sweet is that!?? So, when I get the photos, I will post some of those - I just know they are going to be awesome, well, I hope so anyway. Then we had a luncheon at the hotel we stayed at which was the Century Hotel in Tualatin, OR - which had an accompanying resturant called Hayden's Lakefront Grill - seriously some of THE best food I have ever had. Here's some pictures from the luncheon.

It was a beautiful day, and I can't wait to see all the pictures from it. I think I will have to blog about the reception another time, I'm getting too lazy to keep trying to drag all the pictures down from the top of the post. You just wait until you see the reception...it was basically a huge garden of flowers - ha! that will make you come back for more! Anyway, I will get those pictures up as soon as I have the motiviation to do so.

Oh, and I wanted to say congrats to David and Leighanne on their new baby Maggie! She is SOOO cute! That's all.
