Back

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I am back and getting adjusted back into the digital world, as well as the new married world I live in. The honeymoon, which was to Jamaica, went quite well. Mainly we read by the ocean, played in the pool, or ... spent quality time together. We did go on a glass-bottomed boat tour and I gave snorkeling another go around. This time I loved it. We also did some kayaking and played some pool sports. Travel to and from the resort were good, though we had some delayed flights on the way home that made life interesting. Coming into Denver, we were delayed for a while by a thunderstorm over the airport. Our pilot put the delay in perspective when he said it was a good thing we had extra fuel, as some planes had to be rerouted to Cheyenne because of the storm. Yikes.

Our wedding was fantastic. God really blessed us with an amazing setting, great weather, and many good friends. Everything was terrific. Our caterer, A Perfect Bite, just did an amazing, outstanding job, and the cake from Das Meyer's Fine Pastry Chalet was phenomenal. Josh did a great job with the ceremony, and I got a lot of good comments about it. My brother Jon did a great job playing the keyboard and my friend Scotty did a great job with the DJing. Big thanks to everyone who was involved! Thanks so much for a great day!

Pictures may be a while in coming as we are getting settled into married life and taking care of the minutiae that living together and being gone for a week have created or left undone. I've got pictures from the rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, honeymoon, and gift opening aftermath to post.

Oh, and a big thank you to Jen's friends who decorated our place while we were gone. They did it up fantastically with a luau theme of umbrellas, flowers, and tableaus of married life using pillows and our clothes. There were haikus for us hidden throughout the house, chocolates on our pillows, and candles all over the place. Thanks! Jen and I feel very loved!

Awesome. Nothing like having video of me blubbering to spread around. ;)
