More pics from Mexico... Tyler said he looked drunk in all the other ones I put on!!!




Okay, I know I am in big trouble from so many people. No posts since December 21??? I know I am terrible, but I guess I do have a legitimate excuse. Things were really busy, and still are, with planning all the wedding stuff and having nursing school on top of that. But I was feeling really guilty and was having major withdrawals from not blogging, so I am sitting here now when I should be studying or in bed and I am going to give everybody a little update.

The wedding went perfect. I keep wanting to relive that day but there is nothing about it that I would change. It was so much fun and neat, it just went too fast and we were so busy that it just felt like a big rush. Thank goodness we decided to do a video. We sit and watch it at least once a week. Thank you so much for everybody and their support with the wedding. It was so neat to look at the crowd at the reception while standing in line and seeing all our friends and family coming and supporting us. Family and friends are very important and I am starting to realize more and more now that I am getting older.

The honeymoon was amazing of course!! And no, not just because of what you are all thinking, but it was warm, on the beach, in a swim suit all day, and doing nothing but relaxing. We went to Puerto Vallarta and stayed on a very nice resort with a room that had a balcony that was on the beach. One of my favorite parts was leaving the balcony door open at night and listening to the ocean. I LOVE the ocean!!

I haven't quite figured out what people mean when they say "now the honeymoon's over" because married life is so much FUN!!! There is nothing better than getting to hang out with your best friend and love of your life every day. Plus we are already making lots of memories. We have a sweet, cozy basement apartment in South Jordan and we love it. It is called "Big Red" since the carpet in the family room is bright Utah red :) But we love it. It is so much fun having a place of your own that you can call home and knowing that it is just the beginning of a wonderful life together.

If you ask Tyler, out of respect (or fear) he will tell you that I am the best cook ever!!! He tries to hint around nicely that I need some practice like when he tells me I should watch my mom cook more often or go over to his aunts house and have her show me how to make things. But I keep telling him if I had more time I could prepare big gourmet meals. I am getting better though. We haven't had grilled cheese sandwiches and waffles yet for dinner this week :)
It has been an adjustment living with eachother though. Just mention alarm clocks and snooze buttons to Tyler and he will freak out!! Lets just say I always set the alarm about an hour earlier than I really intend to wake up, because I feel good just knowing that I made the effort to try and wake up early and work out! :) I almost got an alarm clock broke and thrown at the wall a couple weeks ago. But now its something to laugh about. Tyler is also adjusting my crazy sleep talking. Every morning he wakes up and has a new story for me about something crazy and funny I said in my sleep. Poor Tyler, I don't think he has really slept since we have been married.

Sorry for the novel, but I just wanted to update everyone and make up for the 3 months of not blogging at all. Plus I was going through withdrawals. The next time may not be until school is over so enjoy this one for as long as you can!!
