"OUR" SEPTEMBER MONTH

September... was a crazy fun filled month of weddings, Mexico, birthdays, and much more. I just wanted to take the time to write and document the many adventures we were able to experience together just in the first month of our marriage. We are having so much fun together... learning more about each other, getting use to melting our lives together, and finally having a place to call home! Here is a little update combined with some pictures and memories of our first few days together.

Sept. 1st-6th: Wedding Festivities

Mon. Pendleton Bridal Shower
Tues.
Wed. Lingerie Shower

Thur. Rehearsal Dinner at Carly and Jeff's. It was such a fun night of BBQ, balloons, flowers, great food, family and friends, and a little karaoke mixed all together....
Fri. OUR WEDDING DAY... filled with an orange burst of beauty, love, laughter, merriment, and dancing. Thanks to all the family and friends that helped to make this day so memorable for us. It was just like I had imagined and I really did feel like a "princess".
Sat. Honeymoon time... but before we left for our red eye flight, we stopped over to the Pomeroy FAMILY Reunion at Gloria's House. We felt like we didn't get enough time to visit with family members that flew in from Dallas and other parts, so we decided to spend some more time with loved ones before they left to go home.

Sept. 7th- 13th: HONEYMOON WEEK

Mon. I won't go into detail of all the events that took place during this fun, relaxing, and adventurous week, but it was wonderful....Tues. We went to the Xarcet animal/water park... James' favorite part was snorkeling, but I was too afraid of the REALLY big fish. Wed. We rented a car, drove down to Cancun, and spent the day finding seashells on the beach and playing in the really abnormal big ways in the ocean. The water was so blue... Thur. We went to the Mayan ruins- to the temples, and we had lots of fun bartering with the locals in the villages. Fri. Spent the day at the resort just enjoying the sun, beach, and blue chair under the cabana.
Sat. Geneve's 25th birthday. Fly home!!

Sept. 14th- 20th: Get unpacked and Settled

Sun. Geneve and Ryan got engaged in a hot air balloon. Stay at Carly and Jeff's and BEGAN the process of moving... and it did take a while though I thought I did a good job at "cleaning house" before we left for summer sales. I guess there are a few more things I should get rid of..maybe. Mon. MOVING day... we finally got the opportunity to start settling into our apartment.
Tues. DI SHOPPING for furniture.. we were able to find a dresser, kitchen table and chairs, and bookshelf. More moving and organizing....
Wed. Job interviewing started
Thur. finished spraying the DI furniture we bought and clean the extra bedroom.
Fri. Geneve and Ryan were suppose to come over for dinner, but canceled due to the fact their car got towed right before they were suppose to leave for our house. Therefore, we had the pleasure of Ali and one of her friends from the mission come over for dinner. Afterwards, I helped Ali "unique-ify" some necklaces she bought and catch up on life together.
Sat.

Sept. 21st-27th:

Sun. FIRST sunday at our NEW family ward. Everyone was so welcoming... that James made the statement, "This ward is really observant" after five people came up to ask right after sacrament to ask our names and if we were new.
Mon. Katy got a JOB at Stevens-Henager College as a financial Aid Planner.
Tues. Go over to Carly and Jeff's to wathc football and play games.
Wed. Katy's 1st day at her new job. It was Jeff's Birthday, so we went to Pier 49 for pizza.
Thur.
Fri.
Sat. met up with Megan to get our wedding reception pictures back and finish James' birthday gift. Golf Day for the boys' birthday. It was such a beautiful day that we decided to go golfing as a family. It was fun to play with everyone since I am at the VERY beginning stages of learning how to play. It technically was only my 2nd time to golf, but I would like to think I am doing pretty well for a newbie (and I think James' is pretty impressed with my golf skills as well).

Sept. 28th- 30th:

Sun. JAMES' 25th BIRTHDAY... Go to Mama Pendleton's house for Sunday Celebrations for James' birthday. Of course, we had roast and potatoes because it is James' favorite meal. It was very yummy.... and tasted like a complete feast.
Mon.
Tues. Ashley comes over to visit... We loved spending time just hanging out and trying to decide who we should set her up with. Isn't it funny as soon as someone gets married they feel the need to step up all of their single friends.

There are many events that happened during this month and I am sure that I have missed some, but James can add them in later... I hope that this gives a little insight into our world as a NEWLY married couple.
