For Time and All Eternity

On April 19th, 2012 I received my endowment in the Idaho Falls Temple at 8:00am. Afterwards my parents and Peter and I went to Denny's for breakfast. But we couldn't do much because we still had a few last minute wedding details to figure out and also Peter had to work later that evening. Around noon Peter got a call from his grandparents that they were in town and wanted to stop by so he gave them directions and they headed over. We hear the doorbell and so Peter walks up the stairs to open the door from them and all the sudden he screams "ASHLEE ... Its my mom!" haha it was such a shock! I wish I had my camera! Peter's parents surprised us and showed up for the wedding! It was so unexpected and we were both shocked and so happy!

Later that night Peter's sister's invited me over to their hotel room to hang out a little and Peter's brothers took him out. We had a fun night and I just want to thank Marcy, Blair and Shelbie for making me feel special and just hanging out and having a good time. I know a few pictures were taken and as I get more picture I will add them(:

April 20th, 2012 (Our Wedding Day)

I woke up early and started getting ready. First we had to go and pick up the cupcakes and flowers, then I had my hair appointment. It took a while, but I was really happy with how it turned out! Then a friend came over to do my make up and she did a fantastic job. I was getting really excited and kind of nervous. So I headed over to Peter's to pick him up and headed to the Temple. There was a little craziness and running around because at first I left my recommend in the car and then we got in a realized we left the Marriage license at home so Peter had to run back and get it real quick (luckily we only live a few blocks from the Temple). But once we got everything settled, the spirit took over and it was an amazing experience. I will never forget the feelings I felt that day as I was sealed for time and all eternity to the love of my life. It was so nice to be surrounded by family as we took this next big step in our lives together.

We came out of the temple welcome by our wonderful family and I just remember being so happy and overwhelmed by the spirit. We were lucky enough to have a photographer there to get a few pictures of everyone and also some of us too. (we have a few that I can post now, but there are plenty more to come that I will post later)
