Honeymoon!!!

So for our honeymoon we went to Disneyland. This was the 3rd time we've gone together, but the first time by ourselves. I wondered how it was going to be going by ourselves and not having little children to entertain us but it ended up being really fun. It was nice to just take our time and relax and not rush around. We went to Disneyland for 4 days and Knottsberry Farm for 1 day. I had never been to Knottsberry before and it was pretty fun, I would go again. Disneyland was fun too and our friends Kelli and Colby were there too so we hung out with them a bit. Here are some fun pics from the trip.
 
 Disney at Halloween is so fun!
 Just Married buttons. We got a lot of congratulations
 This photo describes both of our feelings perfectly about the robot show we saw
 Autopia
 Colton
Winnie the Pooh 
No go for me... 
 No go for him too
 Popcorn! I seriously had at least one a day. Disneyland has the best popcorn! Don't believe me, try some
 Castle
Slurpee at Knottsberry
 
 This ride was crazy, I was a little nervous to go on it. The restraint goes on your back and you literally ride it like a horse. Ended up being one of my favorite rides at Knottsberry. It's called The Pony Express

 Cars land is awesome!
 
 
 
 Riding the Omnibus
 Ariel!
I was so wet after Splash Mountain 
 Cars Land at Night is even better. Oh and I don't have a picture, but this night we went and saw World of Color. If you haven't seen it you need to. It really is so awesome and personally I think it's the night show most worth seeing at either park.
 Waiting in line does get boring...
 Colton told me to get close...so I did
 They had lots of cool pumpkins for Halloween
 Red!
 
It was a great Honeymoon! I wish I could live in Disneyland, it would make me very happy :)

The Wedding Day Part 4: The Reception

The reception was a little crazy. Crazy but good. My mom and I got a little stressed because we got very behind schedule and there were a few mix-ups, but it all turned out well. The decorations were perfect and everything turned out exactly the way I had wanted. Thank you to all our friends and family who helped out and also those who came to see us. It really was a perfect day!
 
 Our Beautiful and Delicious Cake! Made by Steph's Cake Creations. She was awesome to work with and her cakes are delicious and reasonably priced. If you are interested you should totally look her up!

Wedding Day Part 3: The Luncheon (sorry I'm slow)

For our luncheon Colton's parents wanted us to go out somewhere so someone else could do the cooking and the cleaning up after. I foud it to be a great idea. We went to Olive Garden, my favorite! It was a very nice lunch for our two families and some close friends to get together and enjoy a little down time before the craziness of the reception. Here is a few photos from the afternoon:
