I just found a copy of this...my sisters and I made it for my dad's father's day card in 2007. MY dad is the best!

Going on my honeymoon

So, we are finally leaving for our honeymoon on Tuesday...long awaited vacation. I can't wait to relax, lay on the beach, and do absolutely nothing. Regardless of how simple you try to make it, planning a wedding is exhausting and stressful. Especially when you throw a tornado in the mix. Thank Goodness I had so much help from so many people.

Maybe I'll actually have something to blog about when we get back...I'm sure Tyler will create some type of silly story for me to tell. :-)

Until then...

FIRST BLOG

What in the world am I supposed to write in here??? Does anybody really care what I did today? :-)
