The Week After

We are back from our honeymoon!

The weather was beautiful, the flights were not delayed, and we didn't get sunburnt! Woohoo!!

All in all, it really was the perfect vacation. We went parasailing, kayaking, snorkeling, swimming, rode a banana boat (see picture down below). I don't have pictures as of yet, but I will soon. I will try that new Snapfish thing so everyone can see them all. There are too many to post!



It was so blasted hot down there that we essentially in a pool/beach for 85% of the time down there! Luckily for me there weren't any jellyfish or sharks nearby :) There were however, my to John's chagrin, geckos, lizards, iguana running rampart down there. Much to my chagrin, there were also moths the size of Timbuctu as well. Not cool.

The locals were very nice, as always ;) and the drinks were good too! I had never drank so many pina coladas and tequila sunrises in my entire life! Honestly.

I hope everyone had a good week. And now that things are back to normal-I will try to keep posting and entertaining you all!

I'm out...for now.

From the desk of Mrs. Craig

Dang it! I've gone and done it...I've gotten married! I will soon have pictures for your viewing pleasure. :) Yes I am at work today, but-I will be leaving for beautiful Mazatlan, Mexico on Saturday! WOOT!

The ceremony was a blur and the reception was so much fun. I hope everyone had a great time and enjoyed themselves. There was much dancing and much drinking. I will leave you with some photos that Tere's husband Benny took for us after the ceremony.

One And a Half.....

Welp, still a bit sick. I am sitting here cheering our Joe Biden. Can I just say that Sarah Palin does not know what the word "Debate" means. Did she even refute any solid points and counterpoints that Joe made? No. Anyhoo, I will save that political post for another day.

So for those concerned citizens out there. My throat is no longer sore, I still no hearing on one ear but my sense of smell is coming back! :) I am still stuffy in the nose area. But have no fear I am ready to roll-I think. I will be posting a joke tonight because I will too busy tomorrow. Woot Woot!

Bachelorette Countdown

I get a voicemail from my friend Mary, it went a little something like this:
'Wooo, countdown begins! I'm so excited! A couple more day! (more screaming)'

And I think to myself, 'Aww she is counting down to the wedding. How thoughtful.' But in her next breath, she screams-'BACHELORETTE PARTY here we come!' and then clicks off.

Yeah my thoughts exactly MerBer.

80's PARTY!!!

OMG so the Bachelorette Party will be 80's themed. I am super stoked!!! I am planning the ensemble already. Hope you guys get creative.

Thoughts on what to wear? What are you wearing?

Wedding Etiquette

Okay what do you do if a distant relative that is invited to your wedding, decides to invite her other grown children and their whole families?

Here's the story. I sent an invite to a close family friend a did put on the invite "The Smith Family" and sent it to their home address. They have two children living at home with them, so I naturally assumed that those two children are invited. Therefore, when I get the RSVP, after the cutoff date, mind you, she puts down that they are coming and there will be 8 (yes 8) in their party. I was like 'Whoa Nelly'. John was like WTF??? It turns out that the Smith's assumed that we naturally meant their whole friggin family.

If I had wanted to include her other son(s) and their families, I would have sent them an invite to their home yes?

Thoughts?

I delicately told her that since I didn't have her RSVP, but had verbally told me she was coming, I had put her down for 4 as a yes. I apologized for the confusion and hoped that she would understand.

What would you have done?

Another Try

Couple more weeks until the wedding!! I am driving myself mad with craziness. My mind is such a busy place to be right now. I have all these thoughts on what to do, what I want to do, what I haven't done and what I should do. So this weekend again, flew by. On Saturday, or as I will call it 'Sex Day'. John and I attended the Family Planning Seminar for the wedding requirement of the Church. It was a great three hour session on why contraception is bad and how to plan our family using the 'rhythm method'. Holy Jeebus, I think John learned a little bit too much of the female monthly cycle. He kept glaring at me as if to say that he would happily kill me right now. His eyes especially bugged out when our speaker talked about how our mucus needs to be clear, sticky and thick for us to be considered fertile...yeah...

So after that incredibly informative session. I went to Kathy's sex toy party...needless to say I was not feeling to sexy after our morning session on mucus. But I tried, it was especially fun holding the 'wobbler rabbit' in my hand while I pondered the meaning of safe sex, without condoms or other contraceptives.

I decided to take Sunday off and not talk about wedding, church, sex, mucus or wobbler rabbit.
