Pics from our trip to Texas

So I'm really behind on posts. This may take a while, but!!! Here are pics of as at Multnomah Falls on our way to Texas after the wedding. Edwin really liked it! There is no place as beautiful as Oregon and this proves it! Although pictures can't really grasp the perfect beauty of it. It was so pretty in person and when we took pictures and then looked at them... it was a little disappointing. But I hope it gives some sort of an idea for all those who have not been to Oregon... (cough, mother and father in law). The trip was hilarious and fun for the both of us! We really enjoy being around each other. I hope it never gets old :D




The Fall in all it's glory

A tinier fall






One of many posts tonight.........

Silly Doggy

Edwin has a dog named Sadie, which I guess now is our dog. As Edwin would like to put it she's been very "cheeky" lately. Ever since he heard that word out of my Nana's mouth, whom he loves, he has used it frequently. It's actually quite hilarious. :D Yesterday Edwin made Luke, his son who is visiting us with his other son Bryce, a sandwich. Peanut butter and jelly. It has been quite a battle trying to get Luke to eat anything and when he does to keep him eating until having devoured a decent amount. After eating the first quarter of the sandwich he announced that he needed to go poo. Being newly potty trained it can't wait when he says he needs to go. Now this sandwich was actually wanted by Luke and he ate it willingly. A rare treat for us as his current guardians. :) Luke said something hilarious in the process of going "poo", of which I will not repeat, so I called Edwin to share in the laughter. (Prior to yesterday, Sadie had spent a good deal of time in her kennel due to potty issues. Edwin had decided to be nice and let her out for a day.) Edwin was in the bathroom sharing in his son's humor for about ten seconds total before he went out to the living room again where Luke's sandwich was supposed to be waiting his arrival. Luke and I followed a few seconds later. I sat on the couch next to Edwin and literally as I was sitting down Luke says, "hey! Where's my sammich!" Edwin and I both looked at each other, looked at the plate, and it was empty. The only conclusion we could come to was the Sadie once again was being cheeky. So into the backyard she went and Edwin made Luke a half sandwich to make up for the three quarters that were stolen from his plate. To no avail. Luke was no longer interested and we could have cussed at poor little Sadie. I am thoroughly enjoying the adventures of step motherhood for the next four days while we have the little rugrats! :D I am missing my friends and family dearly, but not too much or Edwin feels bad for "taking me away" as he puts it. I put it as giving me the chance to start my own family and being with the man of my dreams. Here are more photos of the wedding and happenings! Until next time!

The beginning of blogging...

Since being married and moving across the country to NC, I have been sucked in to blogging in an effort to keep my family and friends informed on the happenings in my life. So for starters! Here are some pictures of mine and Edwin's before the wedding.
