LOTS of updates

Wow I haven't posted in here since JUNE!! So much has happened. I'll break it up into categories.

Townhouse
We spent about 2 weeks fixing the townhouse. Painting it, putting down new carpet and linoleum, putting in new light fixtures and toilet seats, pulling down wallpaper, OH YEAH and patching the walls from all the termite holes!! Luckily the termites were gone and all of that was old. But it was a lot of work! It was so much fun moving in though, and finally having a place of our own. It looks so much better now. It looks brand new. I'll post before and after pictures whenever I get the after pictures taken. Its a great neighborhood, McKayla is outside riding bikes with the little girls that live around us every night! I'm gonna be sad to leave it.


Wedding
Well I was still working on things the morning of the wedding!!! I took on way too many projects. But I don't see what I would have done different either because I loved how everything turned out. If I were to do anything different, I would have done MORE because I didn't get to do everything I wanted.


Honeymoon
OMG I LOVED our cruise. That was the best vacation I've ever been on. We had a blast!! Parker and I have decided we will be "cruisers." We want to go on cruises all over the world. I can't say enough good things about it. It was just so much fun!! Here are some pictures from the cruise.

This is what we saw when we first stepped on the ship.

Every night we ate dinner and watched a movie on the top deck. The Princess Cruise ships are the only ships with a movie screen on the decks.

Here is our ship, I circled about where our room was. And the next picture shows how much bigger our ship was compared to the other ships. We really made the right choice with the picking the Princess. (Thank you Travel channel!!!)

Then the last picture was from the formal night we had. It was fun getting all dressed up and eating really nice food....for free! That was my favorite thing, eating in a restaurant and not having to pay a bill afterwards.
