So, the wedding is done and over with! It feels nice to be able to say that! I loved my princess day. It was more than I could have asked for. My
HUSBAND wow that feels weird to type! :) Anyways, my husband and I are doing well. We are right where we want to be. Maybe not physically, but emotionally yes!
The day started out early in the morning. The girls and I got our hair done and then rushed home to do make-up as well. We all turned out AMAZING!
We were supposed to start at 1400(2pm). I was ready and waiting, but the 1st Sgt had arrived 5mins prior to the wedding and he was the one escorting my mom down the aisle. Not to mention we need out 6 Marines for the sword ceremony. After 2 make-up touch ups due to tears of putting on the dress and then seeing mom...goodness no wonder pregos don't get married! To emotional! lol It was time to get married. 1410 the ceremony began. As I approached the aisle the glass doors opened and there was my handsome husband to be! The tears started to flow again! :)

Finally I made it up to the alter and from there the Pastor took over. It was short and sweet and to the point. During our ring ceremony(when I was giving Jerrod his) I was crying all the way though it. At one point he took his right hand and wiped away my tears. Kaitlyn,

Well after that it was time for pictures, hellos, thank-you for comings, cake and party time! Finally around 2300(11pm) We went back to the hotel and passed out! There was no wedding nite nookie! ;) We just went to bed! The next morning we went to breakfast with his brother Justin and my parents. It was nice to be able to relax. My parents put on a great show! Now it is time to wait about 17 weeks and the next best day of my life will be here! :-)
