So I guess it's finally about time to give this blog thing a try! ;) Kyle and I just celebrated our one-month-a-versary of being married yesterday, and I have to say- it has been the best month of my life. We had such a great time at our wedding and were so blessed to be surrounded by so many loved ones supporting us and cheering us on. Everyone's love and kindness did not go unnoticed, and we just wish that we could have spent more time with everyone there! My favorite highlights: the father/son dance, Grandma Alice's speech, Kyle and my "first look", spending time with my bridesmaids, catching up with friends & family, FINALLY marrying the man of my dreams!!!
Also- our honeymoon was amazing!!! We went to Mazatlan where we stayed at El Cid El Moro. Our room was the corner room on the 23rd floor overlooking the ocean, beach, and sunset. It was so amazing to have breakfast on our balcony every morning and watch the sunset together every night!! That was probably my favorite part of the trip! Kyle also got to try parasailing for the first time-- which he absolutely loved!! He loved it so much actually, that he forgot to pull down on the chute to land and they had to take him for another lap around so that he could land on the beach where he was supposed to. The guy was cool with it though and said I guess today you get the two-for-one deal! We also got to go on a catamaran to Deer Island with free food and drinks all day! There we went snorkling, went on a banana boat and hung out with our new friends Kyle & Erin that we met on the trip. They were also from the Seattle area, got married on the same day as us, and were staying in the same hotel as us. Small world! We also went with Kyle & Erin to explore downtown Mazatlan and have dinner in Moschato Square where we tried the local food and enjoyed the amazing atmosphere which included live music playing from the park. Soo much fun!! Another night we decided to try out one of the fancy restaurants at our time share and ordered Filet Mignon, Lobster, Shrimp, Mahi Mahi, veggies, baked potatoes and wine... MMMMmmmmmm.... it was SO delicious! Hey, go big or go home right?!? We had such a great time in Mazatlan and felt that a week was the perfect amount of time!
Since we got back we have been setting up house, working, going for walks, exploring the town, and just having fun spending time with friends!! It has been an amazing first month of marriage and we are looking forward to many many more to come!! :)
