lvoe, kat.

Today was our first full day back from our honeymoon and it happened to be on a Sunday.

Our first experience at church as a married couple turned out to be interesting.

So we accidentally attended the Spanish ward. We stayed anyway to take the sacrament and pretended we understood every single word that was spoken on that fast and testimony meeting.

After church, we sent off Melissa (my new cousin) back to the amazing state of Utah. She was ecstatic to go back to that exciting place.

Then we watched Harry Potter with our wands we got at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. We pretended we were the characters and casted spells everywhere and anywhere.

It's so great to not have homework or wedding planning to do!

Aaaand of course, ending this blog with a picture.

Hi, we're all family now.

It's the last day of my honeymoon but I SO wanted to blog some wedding/bridal pictures. So the best I can do is some sneak peeks until I'm home from Florida and not tired from 3423432 theme parks.

1. Bridal Shower #1 with close friends and family happened last Saturday. It was Frozen themed. My Bridal Shower #2 is going to happen in 2 days. But #1 was great... although I realized I forgot to invite a few friends that I shouldn't have forgotten. Oops! Pictures? oKaY. Just keep reading and you'll get to see some pictures!

2. Had my last dress fitting a couple days ago and I AM IN LOVE with my dress. I'm sure I mentioned it before but it's custom made which I'm SO glad about! I'm real picky. One of my bridesmaids' mom is a seamstress so she's making my dress + veil!

3. Daniel officially moved in. We're staying in the spare room of my house for now until I'm able to find a stable job. That way, we can save more and move into a nice area (like Yorba Linda, heh) instead of finding a place where we live now (we don't like this area at all). So now I'm sitting on his computer chair at his computer desk (12 days until it'll be mine too!) working on some projects while he sleeps... then I'm off to my bed next door when I get sleepy!

Half of the hostesses of the shower - my cousin and sister!

Snapped a quick picture!

Hi guys.

My graduation was today. You know, the day that I've been waiting for for quite awhile? It honestly baffles me that I will no longer have school in my life anymore. I don't think it has completely hit me. I mean, did I really have a COLLEGE graduation day today? Wasn't it just yesterday when it was my high school graduation? Life, you're weird and you're moving pretty fast.

It started with Nancy and I working on your graduation caps at 10PM the night before. Earlier that day we went to Michael's and spent over an hour debating on what quote to have, what colors, which fonts, flowers, background, etc. For the longest time I was set on having a Peter Pan theme - "Never Grow Up" but out of all the million Disney stickers they had at the store, none of them were Peter Pan. BUT they had the Lion King! Which was the reason why I ended up with Lion King theme instead - "Hakuna Matata". I was pretty happy with how it turned out! We finished at 12:30ish and I showered and picked out a dress and got everything ready... and then finally slept at 3AM. Yeah, I prepared everything at 2 to 3 in the morning.

Graduation started at 9AM but I had to be there at 8AM so I woke up at 6:55AM, left at 7:40AM, and arrived with plenty of time (first time in forever since I'm usually always late to places). The graduation ceremony was exciting, funny, boring, hot, and repetitive but I loved it! I'm getting tired of typing but here's some pictures to sum up my day. Plus, you'll also get to see a picture of my attractive photographer that day ;)

I sometimes get in this mood where I just want to type anything and everything so I'm taking advantage of this moment to blog (at 1:30 in the morning).

This week is my last week of college - EVER. I got 4 finals down - just 1 to go... on a Friday. I haven't had Friday classes in so long and my last class EVER just had to be on a Friday. It's okay though. It gives me more time to study. There's a presentation in my class tomorrow (well technically today since it's past midnight) but I'm skipping it because 1) I'm going to get a B whether I do it or not and 2) I have no idea what I would say since the presentation is based on our 15 page paper which I basically BS-ed. So yeah, skipping it.

Mother's Day was this past Sunday. Daniel and I gave our moms gifts together for the first time! We went to the park to take pictures of us holding the letter "M" and "O" to spell out "MOM". It was really fun! We ended up having a random photoshoot and dance session there.

Got some previews from my engagement shoot Saturday night in Utah!
I want to share the experience with you guys buuuut I just got back from a loooong car ride home and now I have an 8 page paper to write. It's a pretty funny experience though but you'll get to hear it when I get all my pictures from my photographer.

For now, you get one picture. Just one. Feel lucky because I haven't posted ANY of my pictures ANYWHERE yet. Shhh.. (it's actually two pictures so feel even more special)

Daniel's spring break just ended and now it's my turn! I plan on using my spring break doing wedding stuffs. And sleeping in the whole week (which means sleeping until 9 or 9:30). Oh, heavenly. I should work on my two exams and one 10 page paper that's due right after spring break... but nah, WEDDING PLANNING MODE.

We decided to not use a backyard for our reception/ring ceremony anymore. I want to use the Newland Barn SO badly but I honest, honestly doubt June 21st is available. So now it's back to using ze cultural hall... I hate that it looks like a basketball court. I'm going to try to do everything to decorate it so it doesn't look like one. PrAyInG it will work out.

Oh and these earthquakes. It needs to stop. I'm scared of showering. It's dumb. And I'm home alone right now with my puppy. I want to get dressed and go out so I won't be home alone but

1) I hate leaving my puppy alone at home knowing that an earthquake can happen at any moment. She gets so scared!

2) I was downstairs on my laptop and my puppy started barking like crazy so I ran upstairs and she's standing outside my room peering over and barking at the bed. I didn't see anything so I picked her up and put her on the bed to see where she would go and she immediately ran back down and ran back out of the room and started barking at the bed again. So now I don't want to go back in my room until someone comes home.

Fear is a dumb enemy.

OH. And I got my measurements taken yesterday for my wedding dress. She's finally going to start making it. SO SO SO EXCITED.

Here are some random photographs from the past week just because I love photos.

 

Once I get my life back together without all the stress and school work, I'm going to start blogging. And vlogging. And photographing my life again.

When I do start that, it'll be a month before I get married so you'll get to see my engagement life, my wedding, and then my married life.

Let's the adventures of k & d begin!
