Finally!

Okay, so I'm a slacker. We've been married for over two months now, and I'm just barely getting around to updating on our life. Oh well, better late than never.

The past two months have been... unreal. I can't believe that so much time has past already, it seems like no time has past at all since Gentry and I were sealed. But at the same time, it feels like we've been married forever. I'll try my best to recap everything that's happened.

The week of our wedding was crazy. Nuts. Insane. We had so many last minute details we had to do, we were running around like crazy, and still trying to finish up our last few shifts of work. We left Wednesday for Delta, but not before going down to St. George for Gentry's tux and the flowers. Once in Delta Gentry's family was amazing, they helped out with everything from food to decorations, anything we needed, it was done. Thursday was our first reception in Lehi, it was a long day getting ready and finishing everything before we could enjoy the evening. So many friends and family came to support us, you could feel the love from every single person.

My best friend, Courtni, was our photographer for the next couple days. She was so awesome!

Our cake was incredible. So incredible, in fact, that we didn't eat a piece of it. We decided that we wanted the cake for both receptions, so we asked Gentry's sister-in-law, Jessi, to make the whole things fake, and we just cut a cupcake on the side. I have to say, that was one good cupcake!

While we had decided we didn't want to smash cake in each others faces, Gentry still managed to get some frosting on my dress. At least he was nice enough to clean it up!

Finally, Friday came. The day we were going to be sealed for eternity. We drove up to Manti together early, and it was so wonderful to just get to talk with Gentry about what was going to happen and our life. Because although we practically hadn't separated for the past six months, the term "we" took on a whole new meaning that day. Our sealing was incredible, I can't even describe it. It was hard to not be emotional through the whole thing because of how strong the Spirit felt.

After taking tons of pictures, we started the long drive back to Delta for our luncheon. My mother-in-law did a great job on the food, it tasted amazing! Gentry's dad sang us a song, as is tradition for every one of his sons. And then Gentry gave me a wonderful surprise: he sang for me too! He sang "She Thinks She Needs Me", and he had no idea how much that song meant to me. Needless to say, I got very teary-eyed.

Final task: our last reception. Everyone was pretty tired, but we were able to get through the rest of the festivities. We danced our first dance to our song "This Kind of Love" by Josh Turner.

In short, our wedding was amazing. I couldn't have asked for anything better, and I most certainly couldn't have asked for a better man to be married to. I love him more than I know how to say, and eternity might just be long enough to spend with him!
