Summer Kickball 2009

I have formed an adult kickball team for the summer. What's better than a bunch of adults acting like children? I am so excited to get this started. Our first game will be June 8th. Charlie and I have been on a dodge ball team that was an absolute BLAST. I think kickball is a bit more appropriate for summer! Wish us luck...

GREAT WEBSITES!!

I have to give a quick shout out to a couple of websites that every bride should utilize. http://www.theknot.com/ is an amazing resource for brides with tons of amazing ideas. There is a great Do-it-yourself section with lots of money saving ideas for frugal brides, as well as well as a style guide to help you plan a wedding around your personal style. Check it out! On top of that, they have a website called thenest.com for newlywed couples! I was so excited!! I just took a bunch of recipe ideas from the sight that I am stoked to try out on Charlie. I also got some great DIY decorating ideas for our new place. I will be sure to post some of my projects soon!

Ahoy!

The honeymoon is over and the honey-do list begins. Actually our place is in terrific shape! Charlie worked for the last 2 weeks organizing our garage to make additional room. Not a moment to soon! We decided to adopt...no, not a kid, but a boat. Our first project as a married couple. The boat was given to my Dad about 15 years ago from his dad. It's been outside and uncovered for the past 5 years. It's going to be some work, but I have a feeling it's going to shine up real nice!

Wedding photos!

Here are a few pictures from the wedding. Charlie and I are still going through them trying do decide our favorites! Wendy did an amazing job (unfortunately she's moving so it would be pointless to recommend her). Lot's more to come!

HONEYMOON!

Here are a few pictures of our honeymoon in Mexico. It was amazing! 90 degrees everyday, tons of food, lots of sun and amazing beaches. We flew into Cancun and took a taxi about 20 miles south to a little fishing village called Puerto Morelos. We stayed in an amazing resort called El Cid. Thanks to the swine flu there was no one there! We had a blast. I will get more pictures from Charlies camera this week and be sure to post them!

Here's the groom!

I love this photo because I can just picture Charlie sitting in front of his laptop with the webcam on making faces. Notice the glasses? Those were his wedding gift from me. Want to know what I got? The amazing jewlery I wore for the wedding.

Isn't he cute?

Lets go back...

I'll start from the beginning so you can get an idea of Charlie and I pre-wedding. Here is one of our engagement pictures. Eric did every one of them and did an amazing job. We spent an afternoon in downtown Portland and shot pictures all over the Pearl District. He had a blast and got some great pictures out of it.
