There was a wedding and then we went on a trip!!

Well, to start out...on Aug 29th my big sister got married. Amy and Steve decided to have there wedding in my parents back yard. It was set up a nice in the yard but they were calling for rain. Luckily my parents house in across the street from the church so at 11am the morning of the wedding, we moved everything over to the church to avoid the rain. It was a busy morning. The wedding started at 2pm and me and Amy started getting ready at 1:20.
But all went smoothly after that, the rain held out until after the pictures and i think everyone had some fun. Oh yeah...I made her wedding cake. It was very simple, but it was exactly what she wanted.

Here are some pictures that the photographers took.





Then Chad and I had taken a week off of work and went with Amy and Steve to Ontairo... just what every newly married couple dreams of...chaperones on their honeymoon. ;) We hung out for the week and then they went to Niagra Falls for their real honeymoon so dont feel too bad for them!
We had a lot of fun though. We went to Canada's wonderland twice where we went on all but 1 or 2 rollarcoasters! We didn't bring a camera cause we didn't want to carry it around all day. SO no pictures, however, they have this insane rollarcoaster call the Behemoth, it is brand new this year and it is insane. The first drop is 70 meters (230 feet) at 125km/h and a 75 degree angle. It's crazy! You can check it out here: http://behemoth.canadaswonderland.com/public/ride/

We also went to the zoo. Chad loved it! He really should have went into zoology or something!
I love that the Rhino's were kissing!







We did some shopping. We bought new dressers from Ikea. We are buling a new bed frame that will match.


And we did a quick stop by the temple at night. Chad and I wanted to do a session but our recommends expired while we were away and we realized too late to do anything about it before we left.


This is us outside the temple, little self portriate!

I also had my first Krispy Kreme experience. It was heavenly!

And my first Denny's experience...this was taken at Denny's.


Also, one of my favorite foods is Jerked Pork! I love it!! And I cant find it around here. They have a Mr. Jerk in Brampton (where we were staying) and we got some the first night we were there! I love it! If anyone knows where to get it around here let me know!!


We had a lot of fun! It was the fist real trip Chad and I had ever taken together.
We will have to do it more often!
Also, a big thanks to my uncle and aunt who let us stay with them while we were there! You are fabulous!!

Aahh...you made me miss Krispy Kreme! Although I am kind of glad they don't have them here because I would want to eat them ALL the time! I think I saw a recipe on a blog for Jerk Pork (It may have been chicken) but you could do either. It looked really simple, I'll check to see if I can remember which one it was on and I'll send you the link. Glad you got to go on a trip...jealous a little though! :)
