Forever and Ever Babe


Sorry it's taken me so long to update this. We have been married just over a month now, and LOVING it! It's so wonderful to be sealed together, to have each other to lean on, learn from, and love. The wedding was amazing, filled with many wonderful memories. Here are some of the best moments (at least we think so now, maybe not then on a few).




5. Losing the handkerchief Granny made for me when I was born. She made it as part of my baby blessing outfit, it was initally worn on my head. It was made so you could take out a couple stitches and it became a handkerchief to use on my wedding day. My mom had been saving it all these years, and gave it to me at our rehersal dinner. It was mistaken for a napkin while cleaning up thrown in the garbage. Thanks to Rob's cousin for diving in the garbage bag and finding it!


4. Rob thinking that he would get to spend the morning with me on our wedding day. He didn't really get it that I needed the whole morning to get my hair done and makeup. He was quite frustrated when I wasn't ready until about 20 minutes before we needed to leave for the temple. He watched Bride Wars that morning. Then of course we forgot our recommends in my car as we were rushing off to the temple. Then we forgot something in his car once we parked and had walked half way from the parking lot to the temple. It was nice to step inside and just breathe.








3. Tow trucks at our reception! So fun. A lot of people were parked in the AT&T parking lot, which isn't Studio 600 parking until 8 pm. So AT&T called the tow trucks and put a bit of a damper on things. At one point I was standing in the receiving line watching our brothers run back and forth across the room with keys, and just thinking, really?? Anyway, nothing a couple hundred bucks couldn't fix. AT&T lost my business forever.


2. Dancing the night away! I loved dancing together to "Lucky" by Jason Miraz and Colbie Callait as our first dance. It was the perfect song for us. Then dancing with my Dad, who is the best Dad in the whole world. I couldn't have been raised by a better man. It was great to celebrate with so many family members and friends. I wore these awesome red heels, and only tripped in them once when Royce (Rob's brother) grabbed me and starting swinging me and dancing... he's not as smooth as Rob. :) Rob and I met dancing at Studio 600, and it was pretty great dancing with him as my husband at the same place we met.


1. Being sealed to the love of my life for all time and eternity. That was a moment I'll never forget. Rob is the man I never thought I'd find, who loves me like I've always wanted to be loved, and who I love more than I ever thought possible. Life, although stressful and crazy at times, is a joy with him. No till death do us part for us... we're in this thing forever and ever. Thank goodness, because it wouldn't be Heaven without him by my side.
