Yay for Pictures!

Well, J and I still feel like we are in a dream. We are loving life together! Today we got an email from Dustin Izatt who was our wedding photographer. He said he had posted some of our pictures that he has finished on his blog. We SO love them! He captured our special day so perfectly! I am so glad that the pictures turned out so well for us to remember our special day. I should be getting a cd of all of them soon, but until then, please look at his website and see them all!!!

Aaahh, the married life...

Well, J and I are now settled into our little "humble" home (studio) back in Laie, HI. We are loving life. School started last Thursday ad we are trying to get back into the swing of things. September is the HOTTEST month here (or so it seems) and we just can't get cool enough! Our cute lil studio has a ceiling fan that runs too slow to make any breeze, but we do have a small fan that is the size of J's palm. hahaha. We thought about getting some popsicles, but our lil fridge won't hold a box! It is so small, and our home is so "humble" but we love it, and we will look back and laugh at our situation....later. :) Everything else is going well! We are back working at the PCC taking photos with tourists, but I'm trying to find more work because hours are short and bills are high! Hopefully I find something soon! Love love love being married to my best friend! He is SO good to me. And we have had SO many blessings since we decided to get married. In fact, last week while we were working we met a couple nice Samoan ladies visiting from New Zealand and Australia. Well, J could relate alot to them because his parents and sister live in NZ and Australia. The ladies were so kind and gave us a good sum of money just because they thought we may need it. We never got their names. They were so kind. It is so true that we are blessed in all sorts of ways by all different people. What a blessing! I am so glad I have a wonderful husband always by my side! Oh how I love him!!!

Gettin' hitched!

Well, it's down to about 2 weeks now! IT is CRAZY! Jay and I have decided to get married before we go back to school. It was just what felt right and everything has been falling into place perfectly! I definitely have TONS to do, but it has been great. Jay's parents and sister are coming over from Australia and New Zealand and some of his family from Alaska is going to make it too! We are so excited! We have found a itsy bitsy little "studio" for this semester that will work until we can move into married housing or someplace better! We are SO excited! We are having a reception here at the house in Blackfoot and it's going to be so fun! Things will work out great. Jay and I are so happy and I think everyone is happy for us. :) I can't wait to start this new part of life! Jay (Jaliz Scanlan) has been such a blessing in my life. He is everything I need! He is so kind and FUN and funny and caring and responsible and a good person. He has given me so much in so many ways and I am so thankful I have him in my life! We have learned to compromise and learn from each other. WE are going to have such a wonderful time going thru life together! I love you, Jay. :)

JOhnSoN JUNGLE

I've been spending some days here in Logan with Stan and Aubs and this evening we went out to a park in Wellsville. Those kids are so fun! Zack and I had a great time playing with the kids and Stan. (Aubs was busy taking care of ladies in labor at work) Gotta love them. As CRAZY as they are.. As you can see from the pics above, Stan obviously gave their kids his good looks...

Sheena

Since I've been home I've gotten to spend some time with Sheena and her darling little boy Dominik. It's so nice to catch up. It is crazy how things change! Always love to chat with her. We have so many great memories together! Love ya Sheena

RASPBERRIES!!

Since I've been home, we've been pickin' raspberries like crazy! The kids love it too!!!
Gotta love coming home to family and yummy food!!

GLUTEN FREE!!!

For our last weekend here Ki and I bought GLUTEN FREE pizza because Ki can't have wheat and she hasn't had pizza for oh, a YEAR! We were SO excited! I was SO happy that she could finally just indulge in it. There's nothing like Pizza. There is a shop near our house that makes all their pizzas with a gluten free crust for a RIDICULOUS amount more, BUT there is nothing like this in Hawaii so we had to do it! I was SO happy for Ki! Thank you Garlic Jims! We had ice cream, movies, pizza, and each other. Gotta love girls night :D
