Something big has happened in my life... I think you all are aware but I feel like I should give it a recap.
Ready???
Yes. Harry Potter is done. It is finished. The deed is completed. (this is a warning to those not wishing to read a spoiler-- please skip this paragraph. You're welcome.) who could have guessed that Harry would have survived the curse of death TWICE!!!!! Ya I know, nuts right?? And honestly, disregarding how cheesy the very ending was, there was no other way to end the dynasty other than watching little Albus Severus Potter run off on the choo choo to school. Could it have been a lead up to an entire next series? I doubt it. I don't think JK is up for another run. Nor do I think the emotional tank of the children of america can handle that again. I think I speak for all of the kids that read Harry Potter in elementary that are now my age... There will never be another Harry Potter. And for that matter, the Weasley family is irreplaceable. It's time to move on. Our parents had the Star Wars series and we have now seen the cap stone of our child hood series placed. Lets just hope that the famed series of our younger siblings and our future kids isn't transformers or anything up that alley. At least wizards and witches keep their clothes on right? The only thing that could have made it better would have been a rockin outfit like Kristin Gardener's. I seriously want one, I am on the hunt.
Let's be honest. A lot has happened in the last long while. Chase and I had our one month anniversary spent at Harry Potter of course, and we are loving every second!!! We are in Canada working. Yep, summer security sales! Chase is really good at this ish. However I am not. I think my first sell might go through tomorrow. Thanks for the pity party on my behalf. Anyway, this is some hard work I tell ya. But it's super fun!!!!! Oh wait. No. No it isn't. Whelp, I get to work with Chase everyday, and I like him a bushel and a peck so I am still having fun. I will be sure to let you know when I am not having fun anymore.... And if you have ever met my hub you know that having fun is not something we lack :)
Did I mention we spent our honeymoon in Park City and Hawaii?? Yes we did and whoo doggy I tell you what it was a good good time. I really want to do an anniversary up in PC, our hotel was a ton of fun. I would go into details but let's be honest, yall don't care where we went to dinner and how much time we spent at the beach huh??? Ya I know.
And since we are working backwards on the timeline, this leads us to the wedding. The glorious wedding. I can say it was perfect for two reasons- firstly it was my wedding, I can say what I want right? Secondly- it was, indeed, perfect!! The morning was calm and stress free. Walking into the sealing room in the salt lake temple hand in hand with chase was so overwhelming. Seeing our family and a couple best friends in the beautiful room was so sweet. Our sealing was blissful and moving. I nearly squeezed my moms hand off for 5 straight minutes and I could not get my heart rate to slow down! Our sealer was a very sweet man and the words he said haven't left us. That moment when we came out of the temple that I had pictured a million times was magical. The luncheon at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building was gorgeous thanks to Connie Momma. Lunch was a delicious and intimate experience with most of our family and close friends. I hadn't planned at all what to say, and I ended up gushing all over about how much I love my husband. The truly beautiful words were spoken by our four parents and my well spoken husband. Our pictures were so fun to take and to see. Go ahead, creep on my fb. Between the lunch and the evening festivities, I said, "Where is my husband?" then i gasped at the sound of those glorious words!! The ring ceremony was perfect too. My sweet daddy got to walk me down the 'aisle' to my husband. Brother Allen Mueller who spoke at the ceremony was wonderful. The reception was stunning and everything I had ever imagined and more. I love every man and woman that gave of his or her time and talent for this special day. Especially my florist, Samantha Olsen of Paris In June flowers, her sweet mother, and my relief society. But mostly my mother. She put the design concept i had and basically took it out of this world and beyond. The cakes were gorgeous and the cake cutting was really fun! Chase didn't smash cake into my face, two brownie points for the man in black!! I surprised chase with a golf bag grooms cake :) The music and MC were classy, way to go Kyle! My last dance with my dad and my first danc with my husband were very sweet. The three of us shared a moment there on the dance floor that is precious to me. Seeing my new sister gush in the corner was cute as can be. Dancing with my father in law was too fun, and the words "in law" are gross to us. I am just thinking of this now, but if i could change one thing about the whole day, i would have asked my baby brother to dance. Z man, make it up to me at your own wedding in like ten years :) The bouquet toss was perfect too. I had a perfect view of the yard and our wonderful and generous guests, so I took a quick second to take it all in. Sarah Diamond caught the bouquet, and who else but the girl I have been best friends with since second grade? And the garter toss was cute, Chase blushed ;) that is after Avery ran to get my garter from the house, I forgot to put it on!!! But once it was off, so were we. Our exit hadn't really been planned the way it ended up, but it was great!! We had a funnel of guests and I got to tear up with Mugs and my parents before running off (literally) up the hill with my husband to our car that was appropriately and beautifully decorated!!! Yay! We had specifically asked for no nastiness and smooshed oreos. I believe it was Lauren and Sean and company, well done. And finally I attribute my sanity through the whole thing to, aside from knowing that in the end I would be with chase, my two gorgeous sisters. My three siblings and I are best friends. Always and forever. I miss them. Anyway, I truly could not have pictured a more perfect day. But let's get real....
The most perfect thing about the day was Chase. What a man, I tell you what. The absolute crowning moment of the day is seared into my memory, and i replay it often. When our sealer announced us sealed, Chase's eyes welled up, so did mine, and we both smiled through tears. It is the happiest and most tender moment I think two people can experience.
It has been 34 days since the deed was done.
