Here's a little background information:
The Girl:
Amanda Jean Cook-aka Mandy....
Currently working full time at Manor Care as a Certified Nursing Assistant. I have been there since May 2007. I am going to school for nursing currently....I'm sure my mind will change again, I tend to flip back and forth a lot on career decisions. I love to scrapbook and take pictures, and do stupid things just to get a smile out of someone. I come from a very hysterical family who has a lot of fun. I am the oldest . I have 2 brothers (16&15) and one sister (3). Everyone lives in Westhaven currently.
The Boy:
David Norris Call:
Currently working for UCR as a conductor. He works graves which makes for lonely nights. He is also going to school. Something for business (he's also undecided...quite a couple?). Dave will also do anything for a laugh but comes from a more stricter family. He has 3 sisters and a brother. All are married with childern. (we now have 12 nieces and nephews!) Dave is the baby so i'm sure his parents are enjoying their empty house.
We met in April 2007 and dated ever since.
This is our first official photo together :]
We got engaged in August 2008,
It is not the most exciting of stories, but it is still special. Dave called me up one day and asked if I wanted to maybe go to dinner and a movie. I of coarse said yes and got ready. A little while later he knocks on my apartment door. I open it and in his hands is a large arrangement of red roses. He handed them to me and got down on one knee and asked me to marry him.
We got our engagements taken in October over by Dave's work. Nate Allred took all of our pictures. He is amazing!
and got married April 11, 2009
We got married in the Victorian in Layton, UT It was absolutely beautiful. Everything turned out exactly as I had planned! Except the putting the ring on the wrong hand, almost forgetting the vail, and thinking I was going to pass out at the altar. It was all good.
Our colors were pink, silver, and black. We had Gerber daisies and calla lilies as our flowers.
The maid of honor and bridesmaids were Stephanie, Felisha, and Cassie.The best man and groomsmen were Nathan, Scott, and Kyle.
and of coarse the flower girl was Sammy.
After the wedding we started our honeymoon in a cute little hotel in Layton. Early the next morning we went to Vegas! We spent most of the day driving, after we got there we relaxed a little then had a night on the town. We went to the top of the stratosphere and looked around for awhile. The view was amazing! I had been to Vegas before but had never seen this side of it. Absolutely stunning!
The next day we drove early to San Diego :] Stayed in and relaxed, probably went to dinner.
Early Tuesday we went to Sea World my newest favorite place! We had a lot of fun. Spent the entire day looking at everything. Wednesday we spent almost the entire day at the Zoo. I enjoyed this as well but not as much as Sea World. Thursday was one of the best days of all. We spent the day relaxing on the beach getting a tan. It was fabulous! I hadn't been to the beach since I was little and couldn't remember much about it. Overall I would say the honeymoon was a success :] I can't wait to go on another Vacation. If only money grew on trees.
We then drove home Friday to our little house in Ogden, ....more on this later
