Plans for tomorrow...

Once a year, late in the summer, we go on a white water rafting trip with our friends. That day is tomorrow! We go down the White Salmon River and hit up the Granny Snatcher! Yes it really is called that. It has a water fall at the end that makes it that much more exciting!





I will have pictures sometime after tomorrow! I have to use a throw away water safe camera, because when you go on the waterfall you dive in deep with the raft. So it will take time to get them developed. I am very excited.

Best Belated Birthday Present.....EVER

I'll let you figure it out...

So last Tuesday was my birthday. I had a great one and really enjoyed everything about it...buuuuut... I have been sitting on pins and needles waiting for my parent's present to arrive.

They asked me what I wanted for my birthday.Since they recently bought a new ******* I said "Can you send me your old one?" And instead of doing that, this is what I got in the mail today...

Do you know what it is yet??



Getting warmer...



It is my new best friend!!



Its my brand new Printer/ Copier/ Scanner magical machine extraordinaire! I dont usually find electronics beautiful, but I certainly teared up at this beauty.





* Ignore all of the random cords... I am still getting organized!

♥Happy Belated Birthday Me!♥

Honeymoon and Wedding Cake!

Its almost Friday so it that time again! KellysKornerBlog.com! Yay.

We are finally nearing the end of wedding palooza.So of course I will start with my very favorite thing in the world.......CAKE!

Now that I am living in the wedding cake world, I have complete understanding that it is more difficult to produce a cleanly frosted and simple wedding cake, than one covered in faux flowers and fondant.


Here is our ever so simple cake...






Us feeding each other cake....MMMM...



-----------------------------------------------

We planned our real honeymoon for 2 weeks after the wedding at a spa in the middle of the Washington woods. It was beautiful and had a massive hot tub on our private balcony.

But after the wedding (in Utah) we had to get all of our stuff (and 8 million wedding presents) up the coast to Washington. So we took about a week and drove home. We spent a lot of time at out of the way B&B's and really just spent time relaxing with each other.

One of our favorite places was right on the ocean and was very secluded. It had a beautiful garden outside our deck...



and a very lovely view of the(very close) ocean...






---------------------------------------------

We stayed in places so private that we felt like we were in on our own private island. Our room was hidden up a secret little staircase...




We spent a lot of time eating out at great little gems of restaurants, and just spending quality time together.





I think its about time to do it again.....

Today is Special...

Why is today special? I could go into some deep spiritual speech, but to be honest what makes today so special is that it is my best friends birthday! Miss Tori Beaumont turns 22 today.

She is very special to me and we have dealt with a lot of things together that have cemented our friendship.

(I love this picture so much! haha)



One of the hardest parts of me living in Vancouver is being so far away from her and missing out on all that time.

If you know her explode her inbox with birthday wishes!
