So we're hitched

And we still feel twitterpated, and I think he's still gonna keep me (despite moving stress and girl emotions). So good news! We're on a roll I think!
The wedding day was surreal (which is normal I assume?) but beautiful! I love temples! I'm so grateful for temples and for the knowledge we have of eternal families. Heavenly Father is a genius.
There was still construction on the temple and I was bummed for a minute, but I think I'm over it now. (Thanks Andrea for the pick me up advice from your sister. :p) The reception was BEAUTIFUL! Seriously, the ladies (and gents) that put it together amid all the chaos are superpeople!
We went to this cute cabin that I have no documentation of because I must have been all cloud 9 ish and left my camera with my family. But it was cute! Not having to plan or work or stress for a few days was pretty much beautiful. I love being a bum! :p There was this really cute pond/lake(/glorified puddle?) right behind our cabin so we went for walks to sit by it, and took lots of movies so we could recoup before the open house! :p
This weekend, everything was beautiful too. I forgot that I picked such beautiful decorations. ;) But seriously, the Callister's did an amazing job on the ceilings and the tables and candy buffet turned out soo cute! I loved it! There have been so many people who have come to support us, and we really have been overwhelmed with how giving and wonderful everyone has been! So thank you!

In other news, married wards are kinda weird but mostly great, and our apartment is finally looking like we live here instead of a natural disaster zone! (Not like we even own enough stuff to make moving in that complicated, but figuring out where to put everything can be interesting :p)
Our kitchen is very cute and very yellow and teal! And ya know that Paula Deen cooking set I've been drooling over for two years? Well we own it! People are my best friends. Our pantry is pretty stocked, JUST from the two bridal showers (Thank you aunts!) so we haven't had to worry about grocery shopping while we move in and get settled. :) Eventually when I find my camera, you will see the cuteness. But until then, I can tell you that I love my closet, and it's been nice to have a second bedroom to store things in! We're spoiled, we even have a dishwasher!

I feel like this post has been a weird informative one... but I'm sure there will be more entertaining things to tell sooner or later! Matt's on an ambassador retreat today until Wednesday and so I'm just being a bum at my parent's house doing our laundry since ours still isn't hooked up. (Oh, adventure four, our washer hose leaked all night our first night in the apartment. The linoleum had a seam in it right where the washer was and so it got up under it, and long story short we still have a little fan on the ugly floor under the ripped up linoleum and our washer and dryer are keeping the middle of the kitchen occupied. :p Hence bumming the laundry room from my mama.) But either way... Summer's basically over and life's just getting started! Kind of exciting, right? Of course right. :)
Now home to fold. (Super excited face.)
Pictures next time! Promise! I hope!
