Since Our Wedding Day

It's hard to believe that a month has already passed since our wedding day. While we were hoping for some calm, tranquil time together, it has been a rather crazy and busy-filled month. But, it has definitely been fun, and we have been so happy to simply be in each others lives rather than experiencing the distance of an ocean apart.

Here are some fun memories from our first month together. First, we enjoyed a honeymoon in Yellowstone. Then, we recently took a short day trip down to Bryce Canyon with Dr. Jerry Jaccard and our Hungarian friend, Zsuzsánna Mindszenty.

We're finding there is never a dull moment in married life!

Together in Yellowstone...






A very interesting couple from France that we met in Yellowstone. These people have left their lives for four years to travel the world. You can see the map of their travels on their camper. What a couple!


Bryce Canyon!


Incredibly tall tree...


I always knew Tarjei was strong, but didn't know he could hold up mountains. I love discovering new things about my man :)


Our new little friend. He's much friendlier than the rattlesnake we found. You'll have to contact Jerry Jaccard for a picture of that "friend."


Tarjei, Jerry, and Zsuza...


Tarjei dubbed this rock formation, E.T.


Looks like those Viking conquered Bryce Canyon as well. Take a careful look to see their ship in this picture...



Enjoying married life together!

Our Wedding Day!

May 14th was definitely a wonderful and long-awaited day for the two of us! Everything was absolutely memorable in every way. There is no way to describe the actual ceremony in the Timpanogos Temple other than to say it was beautiful, and we are so very grateful to be sealed together for eternity. We find that the covenants we made there are a strength to us as we have started to build our relationship on love, commitment, and mutual respect.

It meant so much to have many dear friends attend our reception in Provo at the White Willows. We greatly felt the outpouring of love from all of you. Thank you! It went by way too quickly, and we only wish that we would have had more time to enjoy everyone.

We also enjoyed our celebration in Colorado. Again, seeing all the people who have been such a blessing throughout our lives was definitely a treat!

Here are some pictures from the wedding day. Some of us, and some from "behind the scenes." We'll post more pictures once we get the professional ones finished! Be watching for them!
