Honeymoon!!

Well the honeymoon was great!! We had a great time. We stayed in Richfield the night of our wedding because we knew we would be exhausted. The next morning/afternoon we began the drive to Barstow California.( Random I know, but we found a good motel for cheap there). The drive wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. We talked about the wedding, read some cards, and then just laughed and listened to music. We got to Barstow at about 8 and ate some good ol' Popeyes and checked into our room! We were a little nervous because for some reason the trailer park was right there with the motel, but luckily everything turned out great! The next day was our 2 hour drive to San Diego!! We got there way early so we relaxed ordered pizza in, watched some baseball. The next day we went down to mission beach and rented some great beach bikes and had a great time! We rode them all the way down the beach.
We ate lots of great Mexican food in old town and enjoyed the some what warmer weather. The next day we were trying to decide the zoo or save money for good seats at the baseball game and of course we decided for the game, so we decided to go to the San Diego temple which was so beautiful! The outside is getting redone so there were ladders and boards all over the temple. We were shocked by how small it was, I don't know if it was just us, but it looks allot bigger in pictures.That night we went to the beach and watched the sunset which was allot of fun! We took tons of pictures and had some great laughs! Nate had never been to the ocean before so it made it even better.The next day we were off to Anaheim to Watch an Angels game! We are huge baseball fans and so any game is good for us! On the way up we stopped and saw Nate's cousin Bryce who is in the Riverside CA mission. ( he was the one that gave Nate my number) and they are best friends so we saw him and was once again on our way! We stayed a few miles from the stadium. Now we were excited for this because we rented a suite for 2 days! We walked into our holiday inn room and were amazed!! The room was HUGE! The jacuzzi was huge and everything was just amazing! Nate and I get along about everything other than our baseball teams we like!! I LOVE the Yankees and he LOVES the Braves!! I like the Braves too, but he won't budge and even cheer for the yanks. So to the game we both wore our teams jerseys! It was a risky move, but totally worth it! The game was hot and fun!! The angels lost, but hey, WE LOOKED GOOD!Well we hung out at our great room! Layed out by the pool, and just relaxed. On the way home we stayed in Vegas for a night, Brock got a suite in the Hilton there and then drove home the next day for our Kanab reception! We had a ball on our honeymoon! There are probably lots of things that I left out, but these were some of my favorite! :)

It's OFFICIAL!

Well I guess since Nate and I are officially married it means I have to have my own blog! I use to always tease Autumn about it, but well now HERE I AM!
Nate and I were married May 7th, 2010 in the Manti Temple and now are living in Kanab for the summer, and then back to SUU for the fall. Nate is working for the Kanab BLM this summer in the recreation department, and as for me...well I am still on the job hunt! We live in Nates grandpa's old house, and wow we had to put some hard work into it, but it's finally home sweet home! I tease Nate that this house was the hotel for all daddy long legs, but after lots of cleaning and lots of bug spray we are all bug proof! We love being married, it's so much fun to spend every day with your best friend. Every day I just look at him and just love him more and more. I am so thankful for Nate and all he does for me! I will post pictures of our new/old house and I am now an OFFICIAL BLOGGER! :)
