SHOW US YOUR LIFE! Wedding party and ceremony/flowers

Kelly over at Kelly's Korner (Kelly) is hosting Show us your life. Today is wedding party and flowers/ceremony!

These are out of order, and I don't have time to put them in the right order!! Our wedding was almost 3 weeks ago (July 11th) at the Bellagio. We had planned a Cabo wedding in May, but two weeks before we had to cancel due to the wonderful Swine Flu! Long story, which you can read about here if you so wish. BUT, our Vegas wedding that I planned in about 2 months was AMAZING!! We had dinner afterwards at Sensi in the Bellagio and the food was phenomenal! We loved everything. The Bellagio really did a great job.

I love this picture. This was when we first walked in and Alex was giving his speech, you can see some of our flowers in the background.

LOVED MY FLOWERS!!!!

These are the bridesmaid flowers with our favors. We were going with a starfish theme which worked perfect for the Cabo wedding. haha!

My bouquet was amazing!! It was sooooo heavy though!

Being silly with my girls!

Our wedding party! We were missing a few (there should have been 3 more).
This isn't the best picture, but it gives you a good idea of the flowers.

Working out...

I have been working out off and on for the last few years. I started to become really serious about working out when I was training for the Aids Lifecycle Ride (bicycle ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles - around 650 miles in a week) back in 2007. I really enjoyed working out, but riding EVERY weekend 100+ miles was wearing me thin. So after the ride was over, I pretty much stopped everything for a couple months. I don't know what happened, but I think I needed a huge break after working out like a mad woman for 8 months straight. We had also moved to Texas in my few month hiatus, so I had to try to find a new gym.

I started working out at the YMCA in November of 2007 and have loved it so much. I started Body Pump in April of 2008 and have been going ever since. It's a tough class, but it works! I typically go twice a week, but I am going to step it up to 3 times a week, adding in a Saturday morning class. I have been kind of a slacker for a few months and it's time to make some changes.

I joined Weight Watchers last week and signed up for a new gym with my husband. We will now go to Gold's Gym. I will miss my workout partner, Leslie, very much. She is calling me a traitor. ha! I feel horrible, but I figured if I signed up to go to Gold's I could go with Alex and we could push each other. He has been doing great!

P.S. I tested last night! hahahahahahahahahahaha! BFN! I bought some cheapy $1 tests from the Dollar store, so I don't feel so guilty testing now. I should start my period today. I know I am not pregnant which is sad, but it's okay! It's only the first month trying. It works out perfect because I can now enjoy a few beverages on our honeymoon! Yummy wine in Italy, a cocktail in Monte Carlo...that sounds like heaven! And, as it turns out, I should be ovulating the first week of our cruise! Honeymoon baby!?!
