Wedding & Honeymoon

Okay so I'm a newbie at the blogging world, but I am still going to apologize for the length of time it has taken for me to update this thing!!  After this it's O's turn :)

After our whirlwind of dating Osiris proposed to me and I couldn't imagine my life without him, so of course I said yes!  Our Wedding & Honeymoon was the most amazing and perfect few weeks I could have ever imagined or hoped for.  So below I'm going to post pictures of the actual wedding and honeymoon with commentary.

We got married on July 23rd in the Salt Lake City, Temple.

This is one of my favorite pictures out of them all, we look so small in comparison to the Temple :)

Is he not such a STUD???

We had a dinner that night at The Point (it was perfect).

This is Osiris' speech telling me how much he loved me (of course :)).

My families' moves were out of this world!

 

We danced to Moon River :)

















The very next day we hopped on a short (ha) flight to Barcelona, Spain.  We took the most amazing cruise that went to Spain, Malta, Italy, France and Monaco.  I still really can't believe that is what we did for our honeymoon...I'm one spoiled girl!  Below are a few pictures from some of our stops...I don't have very many pictures on my laptop, so I might post some more later.



We have now been married for just a few months now and we've already seen a lot of changes for us...one really big one in fact.  I'll let Osiris explain it...

Oh, the good old days of dating

Nicole and I met in the single's ward. Well, a singles branch to be more exact. Yes it is stereotypical and not very interesting, but true. The irony is that neither of us should have been there. I was too old, and she didn't live in the branch boundaries. Enough about that.
Once we started dating (and the exact first date is still a topic of discussion) things progressed very naturally. We had a lot of fun together. We went snowboarding, we cooked, we traveled and it was great.
She took me to Blanding to meet the parents. Technically I had met her parents a couple of times before, but spending the WHOLE weekend with them was different. I thought things went remarkably well. I didn't say anything stupid and they didn't seem to mind the crazy Brazilian who could barely drive their 4 wheelers. Plus her brothers are both Red Sox fans, so how bad could they be ?
Nicole and I got engaged shortly after. In retrospect our 3 month engagement went by fast, although at the time it seemed like our wedding day would never come. Not only did that day come, but it was amazing. I could not have asked for a better experience.

Here are a couple of pictures of us while we were dating.

4 Wheeling trip with her family.  Around Jacob's Table I think.
