Huzzah!

Some highlights of my birthday:

-Dear friends taking me out to dinner Friday night
-This handsome man...


-Play hide and seek in the mustard fields
-Letters from my grandpa, mama, and sisters (with a lovely little photo of my nephew!)
-Taking Polaroids with my new camera (my old one broke on our honeymoon)

-And this picture. Can I really be that in love with a picture of ourselves?? Unfortunately, I can.

Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes!

Honey

We were so blessed by Bryan's family to receive two weeks worth of timeshare for our honeymoon in Cabo San Lucas. Here's a little bit of our adventure!

Just arrived in Cabo

The Marina

Parasailing (I thought my life was over)

Somehow every time we signed up for a boat trip or Catamaran cruise, we would be reassigned to go on a pirate ship. We kept ending up on Pirate ships!

Swimming with Dolphins
(they charge obscene amounts for the pictures they take of us with the dolphin, so instead we took a picture of their picture)

Dune Buggies. SO much fun!

Back home ready to start life together.

Polaroid Perfection.

Above is the typewriter that Bryan gave to me as a wedding present
an hour before we were about to get married.
In it is a love letter written by him.
I was in tears; it was so beautiful.

And probably the best Polaroid ever taken...

Love,
Bear & Rose

Wedding Bliss

Bryan and I truly feel that we had the best wedding we could have ever imagined. Every moment of it was pure bliss. So when we received our wedding video from the talented Steven Ormsbee, all the dear sweet memories came flooding back. Watching it brought tears of joy and so much laughter. Thanks Steven!

Below is a preview of the good stuff! Enjoy!

P.S. We almost chose not to have a videographer in order to save money, but we are so so glad we did! Check out Steven's Tumblr here!

Everyone has a blog but not all blogs are good.

Yup. That's me. For four and a half years I kept a journal for Bryan documenting our dating relationship, but somehow I can't keep a blog. I blame technology. Just give me a good ol' fashion pen and paper.

Anyways, let's catch up shall we?

They are here!

Yay wedding pictures! Honestly, Bryan and I could not have asked for a better wedding. It was the best day of our lives and we have so many people to thank (like Denise for the awesome photos!) All the hard work and tons of planning paid off. It's amazing to see something you've worked so hard on come to life. It makes me excited for future dreams that Bryan and I get to work on.

Holy COW!

We're married! It's great! No, it's fantastic! It's possibly the best decision we have ever made! There is so so so much to update you all on! However, with building the loveshack, moving out of our place, no internet in our tent, work starting as well as school, LIFE is CRAZY! But so so good!

I'll do the whole blog thing when life settles a bit, but till then just give me a call ;)
