Vacation Blues :(

Oh. My. Gosh.

We had THE MOST AMAZING time in Jamaica. It is so hard to come home from a place as beautiful as that. I could not ask for a better honeymoon. From beginning to end it was an absolute blast. Our room was awesome. Our view was incredible. The first thing I saw every morning was the aqua blue Caribbean Sea. It was perfect.

We did it all...we swam, we snorkeled, we sailed, we climbed waterfalls, we drank delicious Mai Tais, we karaoke'd(sp??). And we took a death defying trip into the mountains on the Zion Bus to visit the final resting place of Bob Marley.

Sandals Grande Ocho Rios Resort was incredible, The food was great, there was always something to do, and the staff was so friendly. The Jamaican people in general are just so friendly. I can't wait to go back. I wish I could go back next week. Seriously. Here's a few pics for you to enjoy. You can see the rest on flickr here or on myspace here.

What Bob Marley called "The Natural Mystic".
This is the parish of Nine Miles where Bob
was born and is buried.

So.....because Chelsea will not leave me alone :)....I am updating my blog. I never ever write in this thing, I am just way too lazy. Plus I don't know what I'm doing most of the time.

Anyway...Gary and I are finally married! We tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony on September 20th. It was the wedding I have always dreamed of. We got married at the beach at Ole Hanson Beach Club. It was so gorgeous, the weather was perfect, I couldn't be happier.

I really could not be happier right now. Being married is incredible. Every time I get to call him my husband I smile. And now tomorrow we leave for Jamaica on our honeymoon. We are headed to Sandals Ocho Rios for a week of all inclusive fun. I'll be sure to post some pictures when we return. Mostly for Chelsea so she stops buggin me about having a blog. :)

Here's some wedding pictures:
