I Do

Thats true! We are married. It was all so amazing. For those of you who couldn't be there here is how our week went: during the week before the wedding there was a lot of finalizing plans and driving people around. Finally on Friday we got married at 1 in the afternoon. Afterwards we had a few pictures on the temple grounds. We were really lucky because it said it was going to rain all day then when we got out of the wedding it wasn't raining! After pictures with family and friends we were able to go with our photographer (Stacy) downtown and just take pictures of me and Felipe. We went to the jewel box and to art hill in downtown st. louis. I haven't seen the pictures yet but I know they are going to be amazing! That night we had a reception in the hotel ballroom at the Marriott. It was so beautiful. We left the next day to go to Cancun where we had quite the adventure. We got lost, sunburnt in downtown cancun, met an engaged italian who owned a sandwich shop, took a lot of busses, went to see some ruins, stepped on a few white sand crabs at night on the beach, and finally relaxed and had a great time. Now we are back in Provo, UT trying to unpack our box-full apartment while looking for furniture. It was all amazing and lets be honest here - I married the most amazing man in the world!

In St. Louis

Well, here we are. Krys and I made it to St. Louis. Things are going well. This is how it's been this past week. Packing all of our stuff. I was homeless from April 25th until May 1st where most of my stuff was at Krys' for the time being. I had a pile packed almost to the ceiling. Not that I don't enjoy being a hobo it was nice to finally move into our new place. Which we moved all our stuff in on Thursday. We even got our kitchen and bathroom organized. Sweet! We then flew out to St. Louis that night with a stop over in the Atlanta. And my stummy has been wiggle-tastic the past few days. Don't worry, I'm all better now [at least as far as I know]. We're now just hanging out and running errands and getting stuff ready for the wedding on Friday. So all is good and I'm totally stoked.

The Beginnings

It all started when me, my roommate and my brother wanted to play a game of basketball but our ball was flat. We decided to go over to Felipe's apartment (not knowing he even existed - but we did know his roommate had a basketball we could use). It ended up that Felipe's roommate invited himself and Felipe to come play with us.

During the game we both tried to flirt with each other (I say "tried" for a reason here...). After the game, sadly enough, we didn't end up seeing much of each other for a few months. Here and there we would see each other at church and say hi and eventually we decided that we needed to hang out. We ended up going to a movie and having the theater to ourselves. About a week later we went to another movie and flirted a lot more over this week or so. Finally on Feb 16th we became a couple and have been happy ever since!
