YIPPEE!

Saturday was the happiest, most wonderful day of my life! Ben and I were sealed for time and all eternity in the Oquirrh Mountain Temple! I could not have asked for a more perfect, amazing day! It started out with a bit of a hiccup, but everything turned out!

Instead of waking up at 4:45 am to the sound of my alarm, I woke up at 5:15 am to a text message from my wonderful sister-in-law, Brooke, making sure we were on our way! I was not, but, with the help of my loving twin sister, Amanda, we made it to Brooke's house with everything we needed, and in plenty of time for us to get ready! As we pre-viewed the slideshow Ashley, my super talented cousin-in-law made for us, tears of joy came to my eyes, just thinking that today I would begin my life with my amazing Ben!


The morning was super cold, but the sky was clear and blue! The perfect day to marry my best friend! We arrived at the temple at almost the same time and I could not express the feelings I had. We were really about to do this!

The ceremony was attended by all of the people we love dearly! No one was missing! It passed so quickly! It amazes me how much one half hour can change a person's life, for the better!


After being sealed for time and all eternity to my wonderful husband, the day was a blur. Our luncheon was, to say the least, chaotic, but it was a fun time to be with family.

I am so blessed to have so many family members who were so willing to help out at the reception! It would not have worked without them! Thank you all so much!


Everything turned out perfect! The decorations, the food, the cake!  It all came together perfectly! Dancing was a blast! I could not ask for a more perfect day!

We were slightly impeded in leaving by the decoration of our car! Thank you  my brothers and sisters, cousins, and friends! It made me smile!

It's still hard to fathom that I am married! But I have the bestest (yes, bestest) husband in the world! I cannot imagine being happier with anyone else! Now we are just beginning the Grandest Adventure ever!
