Paradise Found

But first--Fathers Day. We went to a nursery and picked out 2 bushes to plant on the side of the house. Cade and Jeff did the same thing last year, so now it's tradition!





And now...

From Miami International Airport to Grand Bahama International Aiport.




We made the 34 minute flight. (and you're NOT supposed to take pictures in the airport. oops!)


The Beach! Look at that white sand :)


Our pool. We had one of the best rooms in the entire place as far as view goes.


A cute little hut with drinks and food.


The ocean! The water was crystal clear and a beautiful green.





Yes, I'm a dork and I took a picture of the teeny tiny cart the condiments came in.




More pool shots.






Right across from our hotel was the Port Lucaya marketplace. It was colorful and CUTE.


Yes! I got a shot of Jeff and he was facing the camera AND smiling!



Jeff swimming "laps" in the ocean :)


The honeymooners


This is what happens to your camera and sunglasses when you step out of the airconditioned place into the humidity. Oops! We rented scooters and traveled around the town.


We saw some vultures along the way.



This was the scene pretty much the entire way.

This was the national park. Go down the spiral stairs to the cave and water below.

More white sand and clear ocean.


This is what happens when I try to take the picture...

...this is what happens when Jeff does it.


Eating fresh, raw conch salad. It was pretty tasty until you started thinking about what you were eating. The shell of the conch is on Jeff's knee.


There were lots of pretty plants and flowers, but I didn't get any other pictures.


And this is Jeff's attempt to show that I was actually at the beach, too. :)


Jeff went fishing for a morning and all he caught was this picture of this barge :(

And then we were goofing around at the airport on our way home.




Bye bye Bahamas


Bye Bye paradise. It was a wonderful week! Jeff said he's excited to get back home. Maybe that's because he's still on summer vacation and doesn't have to wake up at 5:45 tomorrow morning. Oh well. Back to real life. MARRIED real life! :)

Bermuda, Bahamas, Come on Pretty Mama

We're off to our honeymoon! We leave Sunday and will be back the following Sunday. I'll try to post pictures. :)

Wedding Photos

Just Married!

Well there are simply TOO MANY photos to post. So if I haven't already sent them to you, let me know and I'll email them!

Not the wedding, but everything in between

Getting on the plane in Denver. We were TIRED!


Mom and Dad on the plane.


After we got to Portland we went to the waterfront. Here we're waiting for the light rail.


Mom and Aunt Ann on the light rail.


Mom, Grandpa and Dad.


On a bridge on the waterfront. Jeff, Aunt Ann, Grandpa and Mom.


Resting after a nice day.


We all went to Grandpa's for a BBQ. Cade and Patsy and Jim and Jennifer and Hannah met us there. (Cade, Patsy and Jim drove. First to Boise from Montrose to pick Cade up, then to Portland. YUCK!)



Cade and Jeff playing frisbee.


"Great Grandpa" playing with Cade.


Aunt Ann joined in!


And "Granny Smalberger" :)


"Grandpa Smalberger" tried to make Hannah happy.


But Grandma Schurz is the one who succeeded. Here Jennifer is reading a book that Cade wrote about his dad.


THE COAST! See how nice and sunny it isn't?!




We took a drive to Ecola State Park.



Jennifer, Hannah and Grandpa Schurz.


Jeff exploring the rocks for sea creatures.


Found one! A sea anenome. (or however you spell that!)


Dad skipping rocks in the ocean.




Cade's birthday party. He turned 10 on May 20th so we celebrated all together!


Grandma and Granddad.





Aunt Ann helped get this awesome dragon ice-cream cake all the way from Portland to Cannon Beach.


Uncle Scott with the wierd beard and Aunt Brandy.


The Wedding Day. Mom is pressing Jeff's shirt.


Grandma is steaming his pants.

And that's all I have of the day! I need people to send me photos ASAP!

The next day it was sunny. Of course! But it was actually colder than the wedding day. So everything turned out perfectly.





Look at his hand. Doesn't the ring look good?! YES!



Jennifer wrote "Jeff loves Terri 6-11-08" in the sand. So cute!



Another trip to Ecola State Park.







Crazy Cade got all the way in the water. It was freezing! I'm pretty sure his entire body was numb.






Our last night. S'mores by the campfire.





Cade and Jeff going back home at DIA.


And now we're Mr. and Mrs. Schurz! I can't believe it. It was a perfect week. I wouldn't have changed anything! Stay tuned for actual wedding pictures.
