Guess I'm not as much of a blogger as I thought :P
Anyway, here's some updates on my life....
Our Wedding....
It was the most perfect day of my life :) woke up at 6 to have some quick breakfast (I was too nervous to eat so all I had was a hash from mickey ds), my mom started on my hair and makeup while everyone else was loading my dress, make up kit, temple bag and other things into the car so we'd be ready to go, as soon as I was ready, I got a call from my aunt lina and cousins from el salvador, telling me they loved me and how sad they were that they wouldn't be here but I understood, traveling is too expensive :(
After chatting with them, my dad took me into his room and gave me the most special priesthood blessing I have ever gotten in my life, all of us were crying by the end (this would be the first of many tear filled moments of the day)
We got to the temple and Mike and his dad showed up shortly after, he looked nervous but curious as to what the day would hold, we walked in and filled out all the paperwork and headed to get ready...
Now, I can't go into details as to what happened while in the temple, but needless to say, it was the most special, memorable and emotional moment of my life, to sit there and be sealed with my husband for all eternity, to look into his beautiful greenish blue eyes and knowing that I would never be alone and to know that we are one forever, I cried almost the entire ceremony, as did my mom and aunt :P Mike managed to remain composed the entire day! I couldn't believe it! :P
After the ceremony, me, my mom and chary ran back to the dressing rooms to get into my official wedding dress (it was too sparkly and big to wear to the ceremony), it took the 2 of them and 2 sisters that were in the room to get me into my dress, veil and tiara, I was so excited to go outside and see my husband in his handsome white tux, I was so anxious and felt that it took forever to be ready, when in reality it might have been about half an hour....
I was ready, I took a different way out to find my husband...as I walked in the halls of the temple to find him I realized how grown up I felt and that this was the best thing I could've ever done for myself, mistakes of the past didn't matter, people in my past didn't face me anymore, heartaches disappeared, old fears banished, nothing but peace and optimism as well as true love.
Then I saw him....
sitting on this bench, with this look that I had never seen before, a combination of shock, love, surprise, excitement, all rolled into a big smile, later I found out that he couldn't believe how beautiful I looked (I will never say I was beautiful, but for that day, I was beautiful, the most beautiful person I have ever been), he took my hand and we walked to the outside of the temple....with me waddling up the stairs in that huuuge dress!
Walking out and seeing all of our family and friends was such a wonderful experience, you could feel the love and excitement over two families uniting in the air, there was laughter and happiness, as well as me never letting go of my husband
After about an hour or so of photos (and Mike spilling hot cocoa on his white tux!) We headed for the reception hall, I was a nervous wreck, I had a song planned to sing for Mike, granted it was the worst performance of my life due to nerves and emotions, I'm glad I did it, he loves my voice and wanted to do something special for him.
(that's Amanda, one of my bridesmaids and my pianist for the song telling me to calm down, to be a performer and to have a good time, thank you for calming me down!)
Aspen Landing is beautiful for wedding, seriously, if you need a place, just go there! so affordable
We had our line for about an hour and then we proceeded, yeah the song was awful! but Mike loved it :)
I could finally relax and enjoy the rest of the reception, I didn't eat (too nervous, yeah, I was starving for most of the day) but I had a great time, we did out dances respectively, I danced to "My Girl" by The Temptations with my dad, I always wanted to dance to that song with him, it was just perfect and I tried to fight the tears as I realized I was saying goodbye to being daddy's little girl and became a woman of my own and a wife....another memorable moment of the day :)
Then came our first dance as husband and wife...we danced to "Tangled up in you" by Staind, we had decided this was our song back in the beginning of our relationship after we got back together from our stupid break, I cried the entire song as I could not believe that I was dancing with my husband, that he was all mine and I was his, it was the most perfect moment, you know that scene in most movies when it's just the main couple and the room is full but everyone else just dissapears and you're left with just them? Yeah, that's exactly what this moment was...pure peace :)
The rest of the party started after that, SOOOOOOO MUCH DANCING! I actually made myself more comfortable...
And then there was.....CAKE!!! Vanilla with lemon custard in the layers with the yummiest buttercream frosting ever!!! so delicious!!! we saved the top and took it home with us :)
The night was so perfect, though after the cake and some dancing, I was so ready to be done and just go to the hotel and relax and rest after the long day of activities, we walked out and our family and friends said goodbye as we journeed into our new lives together :)
On a scary note!!! Manpod almost got themselves killed...by me! they had strapped a stink bomb to the car and it would've gone off and stunk up my dress and heads would've rolled....thanks to my brother-in-law corey, we realized and a crisis was averted....
Our wedding day was a wednesday, which means....FREE PIE DAY AT VILLAGE INN!
so we decided to go and buy a pie and take it back to our hotel room, the manager was so nice! he gave us a free whole pie!!! can you believe that??? awesome!!!
Then we went to our hotel (crystal inn) and well....the rest is just between Mike and I...but it was a good night ;)
hehehehe :P
And that...ladies and gentlemen, is the story of Mike and Rossy's Wedding :)
