married Life

Well so far so good...... We are having fun. It has been kinda crazy. The day we got married was the perfect day. The weather was nice. The temple was amazing. I loved walking into the room and seeing all of our loved ones dressed in white. It meant the world to us to have so many people that love us there.
Then we came out took lots and lots of pictures (we don't have them yet) and then we went to Scaldoni's for the wedding luncheon. My brothers both gave a little talk as well as my dad. It was so sweet. Then Danny and Devin sang as song. After the song Devin gave a little talk about Danny and then his sisters gave a cute little talk followed up by his dad, Leland. It was fun to hear what they had to say.
Then we hopped in the car and drove to Vegas. That was one long drive..............
The next morning we left the Trump Hotel and were off to the Las Vegas Airport to catch our plane to Puerto Vallarta Mexico. We actually made it safely to our resort in Nuevo Vallarta called the Grand Mayan. It was beautiful. There were so many restaurants, pools, types of transportation around the resort (i.e. Boats, Gondolas, Train, Buggie Carts). The pool's went on forever and they had the best frozen lemonades. The gym/spa was so nice too. We (Danny) spent a few hours each day in the spa/sauna and steam room relaxing...We ate and ate and then ate some more. One of our favorite classes was an aqua spin class. It was just like Spin class but in the water on modified bikes. We also had a massage out side in a private cabana. It was all so fun. Time just went by way to fast.
Then after a week of fun it was time to come back home :( To bad our canceled flight happened to be in AZ and not in Mexico! Once we made it home it was time to get ready for the open house. We worked non-stop for the next four days getting things ready with the help of our both of our families!!!!!! Cleaning the house, working in the yard, cleaning the pool and so on. Once Saturday came and it was still raining and we could see it was not going to stop so we had to change things up and move the open house inside. Who would have guessed that in late April it would rain, hail, and snow all in the same day? When all was said and done it turned out perfect. We could not have done it with out all of our families helping us. Danny's brothers mowing the lawn (not to mention the next door neighbors lawn too! His lawn was so long and it was bugging me so Greg went ahead and did it too. Thanks!) My brothers were busy washing the windows. My mother, mother-in-law and sister-in-laws were cleaning, planting flowers, tying and making bows and doing so much more.
Thank you to all that came. It was so fun to see you and have a moment to chat with each of you.
Now that the wedding stuff is all over we are now just playing house. Dad, Mom and son. It's amazing. I have what I have wanted and waited for my whole life. I am so lucky. Danny is the best thing in the world and I love him so much. Zack has also done so good with all of the "changes" that have transpired. We didn't know how he would do but it seems like he has also wanted this forever too. He wakes up before Danny goes to work so he can say good bye to his Dad and can't wait for him to get home from work. All in all my life is great...what else could I want? Nothing!!!!!

One night we took a little boat ride out to this neat remote place that had no power or running water to eat dinner and watch a show that was just incredible.

ABOVE: This is why I gained 3lbs...I loved their french toast breakfast buffet!

What a fun honeymoon you had. I am sooo happy for you guys! So fun to see the pics of you guys on your trip. Sad we missed the reception, we were out of town. I bet Zac is loving his new house and Danny. Congrats from us. Have I told you that you guys have the best clothes ever?
