So I feel like that now I'm married it's finally socially acceptable for me to really have a blog. Yeah I had one before, and yeah I wouldn't have changed anything about it had I been married when I started it, but I feel like starting a blog when you're married is more acceptable and for some reason people will be more inclined to read it...I don't know, call me weird, but that's what it seems like.
The wedding went well, no big snags to mess things up. Still stressful and a lot going on, but it turned out great. Jan was AMAZING at organizing and executing the whole thing. The reception was beautiful, I really loved it and from what I hear people had a good time.
Honeymoon in Disneyland was fantastic...of course. It was so much fun to be there for New Year's Eve. The place was totally packed, I've never seen it that busy, and believe you me I've been there when it's been pretty busy. It rained the first day we were there, if you can even call it rain. It was more like a mist, but it was constant and all day so by the end we were pretty wet. Day 2 was absolutely perfect, sunny, warm and not a cloud in the sky. We really did not want to come home.
Last night we opened all our presents. You know, now that I think of it, we didn't really even get a weird, crazy, useless, or completely ugly gift that we can laugh about and tell our kids about. I guess the popularity of gift cards sort of reduces the chances of getting something like that. The people who are crappy at giving gifts are probably the ones who end up getting the gift cards. We got some pretty good stuff I'd say. For some reason we got lots of Scentsy warmers and diffusers. Do we really smell that bad?
Cherie was amazing and did the photography. What a sport, she was with me pretty much the whole entire day! I cannot wait to see the shots she took. Check out her blog for a sneak peak

I'll post some pics once I get a chance, and if I can get my computer to work, I want to post a video of the New Year countdown from Mainstreet, it was so fun!
You can't really tell, but Erik wore his tie made out of duct tape. Hey, I was okay with it because at least it was solid. He originally picked a Dilbert tie. So I see this as an up
Heather had clear converse as her wedding shoes. They are totally her perfect version of Cinderella's glass slippers. Although she got pretty sick of showing people, but what do you expect?
I told you it was so cute! Her colors were green, blue, orange and yellow. The story on how we ended up with those is a bit long, and people were afraid when I told them what the colors were, but it turned out so cute. It was really windy up until about the last hour of the reception which drove me nuts because the linens wouldn't stay in place.
This is Amy and her posse. Seriously, the funniest thing I've ever seen. Those girls were following her around like stink on a skunk. Seen Mean Girls? Then you get it. My sister was totally Regina George.
We obviously had professional cotton candy people putting these together. :) Regardless of how they looked, that cotton candy was a hit!
