Fun-filled weekend
I've been so out of blogging, I feel a little rusty at this!
So, Andrew and I pretty much had a rockin weekend! On Friday we got some FREE furniture! Oh, yeah! Including an awesome dresser, bookshelf, TV stand, and desk!
Friday night we hung out with Parker and Caden, who are pretty freakin cute! Also, Carolyn, Andrew's sister (which I suppose, makes her my sister-in-law!) is opening her Etsy shop on September 1. Expect only super cute things from her shop. She is creative and a fantastic seamstress (she made my wedding dress - see below post). You should check out her blog and Etsy shop!
On Saturday we hiked up Rock Canyon to find a nice shaded place to rock climb. We tagged along with Andrew's friend, Ryan and his wife, Kristen. They are pretty much awesome. They let us borrow their extra harnesses for climbing and are helping us on our way to becoming more athletic people!
That night Andrew surprised me by taking me to see The Fantasticks at the Sundance Summer Theater. (Don't I have such a great husband?!) I had no idea we were going until we got there. We were a little late due to a flat tire....but we only missed about the first couple minutes. And then, we noticed the front row was empty. Apparently those seats were reserved, but the party didn't show. So we sat front row center for the whole play! woot! (We always talk about how the people who come to the shows late always benefit rather than those who plan ahead. Usually this makes me angry, but somehow when it's you, it feels wonderful!) Anyway, the show was great and the singing was fabulous!
Sundays are our days to sleep in. We don't have church until 2:30PM. So, really, we don't have to get up at all on Sunday. But this Sunday we didn't even have church, so we really got to sleep in. We woke up to the pouring rain, so we sat out on our balcony couch (that is another story) and let the rain pour over us.
Then we began our Lord of the Rings marathon, complete with chocolate chip cookies. I've never seen the movies (I know, right?) so Andrew promised to watch them with me. The Fellowship of the Ring pretty much entranced me. I'm very very excited to watch the second movie tonight!!

Our Lovely Wedding
So, I've recently gotten very into collages. So instead of uploading a billion pictures, I made collages of each photographed section of the wedding. All of these pictures were taken by Rebecca & Chad Hansen. You can check them out here! I hope you enjoy!
Pre-wedding: getting ready
The Ceremony
Group Pictures
Little Details
Reception
Portraits
To sum it all up: It was wonderful.

One of the best things about being married...
... is Cooking!
It has been so long since I've had a kitchen (that was clean enough) to cook in! It has been fun to finally put some recipes to use that I've been wanting to try. Plus my cooking makes him think I'm a good wifey!
Here is a picture of the pretentious looking meal I made the other night.
And one of our scrumptious apple pie (made from our wedding centerpieces!)
