Halloween is Near


October 17th, 2007

Lola's Birthday party was today. It was packed with the cutest creatures you'll ever see.

Our Honeymoon Adventure (censored)

I must say that the week of our wedding could not have gone any better. The weather the day before was rainy. Our wedding day, Friday, was perfect and all the flowers at Red Butte Gardens were in full bloom. Saturday morning was back to overcast and cold. Someone we met in Ireland said "the beautiful day was gods wedding present to you". I would agree.

Laura still didn't know where we were going. I gave her some info about the weather and told her to pack some items I thought she might need. Other than that it was kept a total secret. I guess she never really fell for it when I said we were going to Tijuana.

When we arrived in Ireland the weather was pretty wet and cold. We jumped on a bus and headed to downtown Dublin in search of our hotel. It didn't take us long to find our headquarters in Ireland, The Shelbourne Hotel. It was Grandma Lou and Grandpa Dicks wedding present to us. It was beautiful. From that day forward the weather was incredible. A local mentioned that the summer was terrible and that the current weather was the best they have had all year - again we lucked out.

After spending a week in Ireland we jumped on a plane to Edinburgh, Scotland.
