The First Month of Marriage

Continuing on..... getting married in the Rexburg, Idaho Temple and

Kneeling across the altar from the love of my life

was by far the most meaningful and beautiful moment in my life.

 

After a wonderful luncheon at New Fongs with some of our family and friends and a beautiful reception at The Atrium

 

We headed off to Park City, Utah for a perfect honeymoon week.

 

 

We stayed in a cute little condo with a hot tub and heated pool. We spent the week relaxing making ginger bread houses and ventured out to play in the snow, spend a day in Salt Lake City, and go out to dinner and a movie The Hobbit, (we both fell asleep thirty minutes into it)

 

After that week we were ready to settle into our FIRST HOME!

 

 

It was the best place for us to start our marriage. I didn't even care that the water would freeze if we didn't leave the tub running. I loved having a clean white kitchen that was MINE and just the perfect amont of space for two love birds to nestle in.

 

We weren't home for more than two days when it was time to hit the road again. This time it was to spend Christmas in my neck of the woods, good ol' Ritzville, WA. I hadn't been home for Christmas since 2009 and it was something I dreamed about during those three long years. And some how we only ended up with just a couple pics. While in Ritzville we celebrated Judd's Birthday, cheered on my little sibs, Dalyn and Dallas in their basketball games, enjoyed the Christmas festivities and spend a day with my parents, Drew, Lara, Dustin, Natalie, and little Grace in Spokane for a couple's date.  Thanks Mom and Dad for planning such a fun date for us.

 

It started with Judd and I babysitting Grace at the Mall while the others did a session at the Spokane Temple. Then my dad gave everyone a $50 and we had an hour and a half to spend every dime of that $50 on our spouse. Judd surprised me with a pair of boots and a cute brown coat. I got Judd some sunglasses, massage oil and a button up shirt. It was such a fun game for us!! Then my parents treated us to dinner at Olive Garden and we ended the night with a tour of the Davenport Hotel.

 

 

HAPPY 25TH BIRTHDAY JUDD!!!!!!!
