1 1/2 weeks!

Well, its been a week and a half already since we've been married! And we are doing great so far.

We're still arranging things in our apartment so that it'll eventually look like we live there and not just moving in. My original plan was to be all moved in and organized before we got married so that we wouldn't have anything to worry about after the honeymoon. So we moved most of our stuff a couple of weeks before the wedding, but now 3-4 weeks later, about half of our stuff are still in boxes. But I'm really liking our apartment and I think we're pretty much set, except for kitchen utensils and a couch. So if any of you guys know of anyone selling a couch in a decent shape for a decent price, let me know!

Once I have the apartment a little more cleaned up, I'll get pictures up.

Sunday was our first day in our new ward and Ben & I really like it, everyone has been very friendly and welcoming so far! And there's also a good mixture of older families to younger families and I'm really looking forward to getting a calling and getting to know the ward.

Walking out of the temple...


Posing for everyone :-)

Everyone cheering for us kissing!

Ben's side of the family...


And all the kids with us!

Pics of Ben and I (taken by my family)






These are only a few of MANY that my family took of Ben and I at the temple. We did the "couple" pictures before we got married. This turned out good because there weren't as many people in the morning and it was cooler.

Guess what?!

Hey everyone! I just wanted to start out my blog with...

I'm married!

I just got married to Benjamin Packard this past Saturday, October 20th, in the LDS Mesa Arizona Temple. We took an awesome short honeymoon trip (since I had to get back to school and Ben back to work). We plan on going on a extended honeymoon on springbreak or something.

We moved to an apartment in Chandler and we got pretty much everything in there, now we just need to organize :-[]! Not really looking forward to that...

I don't have any pictures yet, but I'll try to post soon with pictures from the temple and from the Mesa reception. Also, we having another reception this Friday in Flagstaff, so I'll get pictures after that too.
