Oh the Honeymoon!

Good Evening! It has been along time since I have been able to get on here and blog. I've been itching to get pictures put up of our honeymoon and some of the pictures we got from our wedding. I hope you enjoy the awesome pictures above...We went to Cancun and stayed at the RIU Caribe Hotel and resort. It was the most amazing and romantic trip Nick and i have ever taken...We learned in a short period of time that early mornings and long flight can cause bicker amongst each other...But were married now and that is part of life...As we flew into Cancun it was like a dream. The ocean was extremely blue and the sand on the beach was white. I tried taking lots of pictures from the airplane of the coast line. It was hard but I was able to capture them. Once we finally landed be deboarded the plane and proceeded to pick up our luggage and head for the transportation gate...We spotted our transportation agent right off the bat.We waited for approximately 5 minutes before leaving the airport with several other couple who were on there honeymoon. We actually talked several times to different couples throughout our stay. Once arriving at our resort we checked in and headed to have lunch. It was an outdoor beach bar. We enjoy lunch while listening to the waves splashing on the shore. We swam several times in the ocean, swam in the pool and laid in hammocks. We meet a very nice couple from Wales named Denise and Mark Quarrington. We had drinks with them in the evening and meet them for dinner a couple of times. We exchanged information so we can keep in touch on facebook. One day we went Jet skiing on the bayside of the ocean for 2 hours. They took us to a deserted island and picked up sea shells and pieces of coral. Another little mission that we did was to take a romantic ride on the Columbus Lobster dinner trip. We visited with other couples on the cruise. We danced and listened to the saxophone player aboard the cruise. We then had a few drinks and we below deck to have a steak and lobster dinner. It was one of the most romantic times on the honeymoon. We couldn't believe the amount of alcohol that was being consumed by people around us at the resort. My fair skin was easily burned on the second day of the trip. My legs swelled a little and got really tight. It was like I had retained lots of water. Overall we had such an amazing time that we plan to take another trip again soon. Hopefully next time we will visit Puerta Vallatra. Please continue to check back as we will be adding pictures from the wedding. God Bless you all

2 days and wow..Time has flown!

Good Evening!
Today was a long day! Lacey and I got up and did a few household chores. Mom left for Sam's in the morning. We got all the vacuuming and dishes completed in time to get showered and off to Shenandoah. We had tons of errand to get done in before the wedding rehearsal tomorrow. While in town we stopped by the emporium gift shop and picked up wedding presents that had been purchased and wrapped. We had to meet with the DJ at 1pm to finalize all the plans for the wedding night. At around 4pm Nick and Robert made it to mom and Dad's house. So far we have just been sitting around talking and getting all the final preparations done for the wedding reception decorating tomorrow. Wow, I can't believe tomorrow is the rehearsal. Fun time...

3 days and things are getting crazy!

Girls day out!!!
Above are pictures from today. TODAY was a girls day out the bride, the mother of the bride, grandmother of the bride, sister of the bride and the matron of honor all went to Omaha to get nails done. The pictures were taken after we had our pedicures and it was time for us to move over and get our nails fixed. I really enjoyed myself today as I was able to spend some quality time with the girls. After we all finished getting nails we drove over to DSW. The picture of feet is a picture that was taken of Holly, Lacey and my foot. We all love shoes and had to get a fun picture. The week is flying by quickly and I feel as if things are getting more exciting each day. We did a little shopping and then I was able to take the girls out for lunch to Old Chicago. we sat around a giggled while munching on some Italian nachos. We had a few more stops before heading back to Southwest Iowa. My Grandmother from Salt Lake city is back in town and it is a great blessing. I look forward to seeing her. Tonight I've been working on the canvas for the rehearsal dinner and Holly stopped down to have dinner with us. We fiddled with the make-up and then worked on some things for the DJ. We are all getting excited about our little surprise at the wedding reception. I'm now sitting down to rest for a little while before I crash into my bed for the night. Tomorrow will be a busy day. I have to run a vase to the floral shop, get candle lighting sticks from the church, meet the DJ at 1pm and finish odds and ends for the wedding. A major thing that i need to accomplish is nick gift...Look forward to talking again soon... God Bless

4 days and counting...Holy Cow

Good Evening! Today was a very crazy day. had so many different errand to run that I felt like my head was spinning around. I ran an errand to Sidney to meet with the Photographer. We went over the picture list. Then after I left there i had to stop by the Fremont county courthouse and pick up the marriage license. Finally I was on my way to Shenandoah. Here I had to drop off my wedding dress at the cleaners, stop a wal-mart and pick up a few disposable cameras for the florist and the cake decorator. I dropped off the cameras and then headed back to Farragut. I stopped by Pami's to say Hi. I wanted to give her a picture and let her know that I love her... I miss seeing and talking to her. She is a special person in my life. I then had to run to Linda Holman's to get my eyebrows waxed. No one wants me to look like a monkey with thick eyebrows. Back on the road again....I was off to meet with my neighbor and make paper flowers for the dance reception. We did that for about 2.5 hours. I was starting to feel tired and had a headache so i decided to head home. where I was delayed by my favorite neighbors. I got on the ranger with my neighbor boy Logan and rode to his Grandpa's pond.....What a story teller he is.... I was in heaven out in the 78 degree weather.... Back at home I had dinner with Tom, Mom, and Dad... We are patiently awaiting the arrival of Grandma Paula and Uncle Tim. They are flying into Omaha tonight at 11:00pm.. Have a great day....God Bless

5 days to go...Oh NO!

Good Evening! No pictures today. I ran lot of errands this morning. I went and applied for the marriage license and then headed to omaha to hangout with Aunt Kimmy. We worked on pictures for the reception and then I headed to lacey's apartment. We sat around and visited and then I headed home. This week is beginning to go a little quicker than I was expecting. I look forward to a full day tomorrow. God Bless

6 days and counting!

Good Evening! Today was a busy day again filled with lots of fun. From the pictures above you can see that I went to pick my Great grandparents up and My grandpa helped me filled sand in jars. Grandma helped mom with the programs. When we finished Aunt Kimmy showed up and brought a basket for cards, made buttons for us to wear on Friday. she showed me a jar that she decorated and then brought the black and white pictures to us. I was totally impressed. they turned out awesome. Later in the evening a friend of my mothers came down and helped me to figure out a look with makeup. We had a great time and I feel very confident about things on my wedding day. This coming week will be an amazing time. i will be going up to Aunt Kimmy's to finish doing pictures with her and getting the rest of the napkins and mints. This has been a super exciting time. I am so glad to be home and enjoying the time spent with family. tomorrow I plan to get the marriage license, take grandma Newman to do a few errands, and then head to Omaha. Otherwise low key day. I can't wait until grandma Paula gets here. She will be flying in Tuesday. All things will soon becoming together a little better. By the way last night Nick texted me from his bachelor party and told me that he had won 263 dollars. He was super excited....Have a fantastic week
