JEANNA HAYES

Last Friday I spent about 7 hours working and then it was time to get ready for our late formal wedding pictures! I was playing wedding dress-up all over again! haha I did my hair and my makeup and I think it looked even better than our actual wedding day. So in my dress and in his good outfit, Blaine and I went to Lake Las Vegas to have the wonderful Jeanna Hayes do our formal pictures! She's been so great and we've had so much fun with her! She's the best and such a talented photographer who has become a really good friend. We spent a while out there and it was such a beautiful day with great light and we had so much fun taking those pictures. I just love photoshoots! haha She's the best and I truly recommend her! visit jeannahayes.com :)

Blaine and Priscilla Davis 8/8/2009!!!

Such a crazy day! 4:30 am and time for a quick shower. I had to get ready to get my hair done by 6 and well it was a pretty rushed morning! I eventually made it to the temple. I got ready and my mom and my mommy-in-law helped me get ready in order to meet Blaine. I seriously couldn't stop from tearing up because I've been waiting to be in this dress for years! I could barely believe I was about to marry him and be sealed for all time and eternity. We met up with President Tates (the architect for the Las Vegas Temple) and he was just such a sweet guy. He spoke a little about the Temple and our love and I was so excited. Then we were off to the bigest sealing room there and about 80 people were waiting for us. I just kept looking at everyone and I was so amazed at all the people who loved us :) During the ceremony, I was composed until I realized I was married! The words spoken and the sealing was beautiful! I just loved Blaine so much! Then shaking everyone's hand was so special and I was so happy that they were there. Blaine and I spent some time together before pictures and it was just great to be hugged by my husband and knowing that I'll have him forever. Then we came out to meet and greet people and take many pics! They left and Blaine and I took some more pics. Our photographer Jeanna Hayes is so fun! So we caught the tail-end of the luncheon at Memphis BBQ and that was really yummy! The reception was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen! Kristine Peart (?) from KP Decor was the best!!! Everything went so well and little things like not finding the toss bouquet was perfectly alright with me. I cried every single time I danced but I made it :) Blaine and I danced to our high school song "Must be doin' something right" by Billy Currington and I danced "My Little Girl" by Tim McGraw with my dad because Tim's his favorite and it's a special bond we shared loving country music. The dancing, the cake, and newly-wed game, and everything was so great!!! for more wedding pics visit : http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=316224&id=725275060&l=3777c979b0

Hawaii Honeymoon!!!

8/10/09-8/14/09

Monday:

Airport bound and we waited for our plane listening to music and ate pizza for lunch. Our plane ride was 6 hours so we slept most of the time & we saw part of a movie. Then the battery died so we were sad but then a movie called the "Soloist" came on the plane. It was ok, interesting so it kept us entertained. We arrived and we got laid! haha they were real flowers and so beautiful. We got our Dodge Charger and headed to the Ko'Olina Marriott Beach Club where it was absolutely beautiful. We were right next to the beach and it was a private beach and many pools and tropical trees. Our hotel room was really nice & had a fun view of our hotel downstairs pools. We then went to lunch @ Kolohe's which is a little grill place right outside the beach! The view is just so beautiful! This resort is the best! We finished watching our movie and then bedtime! Everyday we went to bed early and woke up early too! Time difference of 3 or 4 hours.

Tuesday:

Up early for a yummy breakfast! Later we drove to Waikiki and that was so fun! We went shopping and it's right next to the beach too. So people where there! We bought ice cream, got some stuff while shopping and looked inside fun shops. We also stopped by the beach and put our feet inside the water. We didn't have our swimsuits but the water was so warm! The sand feels and looks beautiful! New favorite beaches...so much better than California beaches. So the week was mostly rainy but we always got sun when swimming. So then we went to Tony Romas 4 the best dinner of ribs ever! Whoo! Then too full so we fell asleep early again :)

Wednesday:

Up and awake and after breakfast we went straight into the ocean! That private beach is just so amazing and even at 7am the water feels so great! After we got ready for the day, we then went to the Aloha Stadium for some fun shopping. It's like a little China Town and swapmeet! So fun because we got a beautiful wood eagle wall decor for $35 instead of $50! It was probably worth like $80 too! So beautiful 2 go in our office at home. These wood people are competing against another company we saw there and we think they were both lying about the the quality of the products and how they make them haha Blaine did so good bringing down the price! We bought souvenirs and at the end we wanted some towels and it was hilarious because it was 2 for $12 or 1 for $7 but we only had $10 left in our shopping budget. We really really wanted our two beach towels to match but we only got 1 towel at first for ^4 so we had $4 left. I still really wanted the other one so I went to the car to find money. I only had $0.68!!! Hilarious but they gave us the towel! whoo! Go me :) Then off to the hotel & we saw a movie. Nice little break from tourism. We went to dinner at Chuck's Steak House (just downstairs in the hotel). So delish! They have you a lot of food haha I also had to have a pina colada and it was to die for! Then of course we were dying b/c of being full so we took a walk on the beach at night and although dark it was beautiful! We laid down on the beach chairs and it was starting to rain and that felt so good! Love summer nights in Hawaii!

Thursday:

We were up early and bought our tickets for the Polynesian Culture Center. We had breakfast and we got ready to go to the other side of the island! An 1hr 1/2 drive and we saw the prettiest landscapes. From mountains to fields to like forests! We stopped at the Dole Pineapple Plantation and had to stop to buy ice cream! Their pineapple ice cream is to die for! Also with fresh pineapple as a topping it's completely delicious! We saw how pineapples grow and it's fun to see the 100's of acres of pineapples! Yummy! Then we got to North Shore and saw the other beaches. We went to Laie, HA to see the Laie Temple! It's beautiful but sadly the temple was closed! We did go to the visitor's center & took pics outside. Next was BYU-Hawaii. We took pics & got some stuff @ the BYU-Bookstore! Love that place although BYU-Provo is better! :) So off we were to the PCC but we were hungry so we got McDonald's! ha. haven't eaten there in years but we were hungry and a Big Mac was amazingly yummy. At the PCC, we had such a blast! The first hour was crazy with the annoying ponchos b/c it was raining so hard but then it was ok! No rain whoo! We "visited" six countries: Hawaii, Tonga, New Zealand, Fiji, Tahiti & Samoa. We saw each nation's dancing, some drum playing, how to make fire, tours of their culture, a canoe ride & fun stuff! We went to a Luau for dinner and it was good! The best part was the dancing & music. Also, we had all honeymooner's and anniversary couples go up & dance! So cute! I love my husband then this cute lady wanted to cake pictures of us so we have those great pics. We window shopped & then our show started! It was absolutely beautiful! It was called HA, the Breath of Life. It was about a baby, to a boy, to a teen, to a married man, to a father. Life & death & love. All 6 countries were represented in beautiful music and dance. We loved it!

Friday:

Last day! It was beautiful outside but time to go. We went swimming in the morning though and took advantage of the sun. We even went snorkeling that early! Breakfast and then time to pack up. We actually got to the airport earlier than we realized so we watched an entire movie (thanks laptop) and then had pizza again :) The 5 hr plane ride seemed to take forever! We saw a part of the movie again until the computer died and then watched the movie on the plane. Not too bad when you have something to keep you busy. Finally to Vegas and it feels great to be home although we will definitely miss it there :)

The place was decorated soooooo cute in my official wedding color: Tiffany Blue. There were accents of brown and there were a TON of pictures of Blaine and I all over the house! I really did get SHOWERED with gifts and it was so neat to see Blaine & I's house start to build up with things we need and will enjoy. There was yummy chicken salad sandwiches, great punch, yummy desserts and much fruit with amazing strawberry marshmallow dip! Thank you to Michelle Crouse and Amanda Kirby who did a GREAT job at shower games and well a little embarrassing on the "How Well Do You Know Your Fiance'" but oh well, I still love Blaine hahaha It was a fun filled day and I am so happy that I get married soon!

Wedding Planning

These are the cutest bears EVER!! ....So the wedding planning has been way fun but way crazy! You'd think that if I've planned this moment since I was 5 it would be easy but it's not haha. I definitely see the point in like hiring a wedding planner! The thing that has been the most stressful is just finding people to do things like food and decorating and then dealing with availability and budgeting and that has been really annoying! Putting together 400 addresses has been crazy too. No matter what though, there have been great times like finding my dress, finding a place to live and seeing our engagement pictures. So it's worth all the pain and trouble of planning a wedding. The best part of it, is that by August 8th, it'll be done and I will be married to my high school sweetheart.
