Graduation and Wedding are over...Now what?

Well to the people who read my blog....the last time I did this was in May and that was because we were required to, now I'm doing it to share my new experiences. To the people who followed me and have read my  posts, you'd know that I just graduated high school and am now a married woman. Both are very exciting steps that I have achieved, I feel like I did my best to graduate and receive my diploma but I was never reach the level of being the BEST wife, because .....well, its impossible. I will never be perfect, and I am okay with that.  I am a stay at home mom at the moment, although we don't even have kids yet, my husband says that "I need to stay home and keep the house clean and feed my self" etc....lol. I will start school in the fall and then try and find a part time job, maybe even go back to the good ole coffee shop! I feel once it's time for all the kids to go back to PC High I will start missing it...I kind of like packing my bag and picking my clothes out for the First Day of School and then my mom taking a picture of me. But I suppose all good things come to an end. My Husband works from the morning rise till around 6, then he cleans up, eats dinner and he's ready to hit the hay and do it all over again. You could say I feel bad for his since he hates his job, he is a musician and is in the construction field...Shout Out to Thomas "Thank You for all you do, and thank you for working your tail off for us!" Truth is he will never know how grateful I am! Alright now on the whole being married thing, I'm going to be honest...this could be scary to some people but....Nothing changed, we are still in love! I didn't turn into the lady with snakes in her hair and he didn't turn into someone I feared, we are happier then ever. I feel so blessed that I found my match when I did, I'm glad I didn't have to go through heart break after heart break. I'm glad God gave me my husband when he did :)

There is a picture of me and handsome Groom!!!I really love how blue the sky is in this picture! This was the best day of my life, by far. I cannot explain the feeling I had in my stomach on this day, my stomach was so nervous and I was so anxious, yet ready to be married!!

The entire day was perfect, and to be honest I don't care if anything did get messed up :) I got down the aisle in one piece and back down the aisle with my new husband and I was finally a Portwood!

He was pretty excited as well :) He did his very famous scream once it was finalized lol!

 

 

After the ceremony we headed over to the reception where there was food, cake, drinks, photo booth, and dancing. I did not eat because my stomach still felt all nervousy, I know that is not a word but there is know other way to describe it! We had our first dance that our Youth pastor and his wife sang to us, we dance to "I wont Give up - Jason Mraz, and let me tell you, it was amazing. It was a little scary since everyone was just starring at us as we rock back and forth lol

There we are dancing away!

 

The next dance was the Mother-Daughter dance, I decided to do this dance instead of a Father-Daughter because my father was never there unlike my mom. This day meant more to my mom then my Father, and to be honest I don't think he even deserves to have that title -_- Things with him and I are and have always been sour lol. After the dance it was cake cutting time, who loves cake? I know I do :)

We aren't very good at looking all sappy and romantic, but we sure can rock the serial killer look!!! haha

Following the cake cutting was changing our clothes!!! He hated his clothes, I'm pretty sure, but I LOVE when he's all dressed up. I personally loved wearing my dress and it made me a tad bit sad to take it off and realize all that time of searching and dress fittings was over :(( We then went and put on Bride and Groom shirts, this was more casual for the plane ride. We tossed the flowers and flung the garter, got the marriage license and then we were on our way to Florida1

This was us heading towards our car getting abused by bird seeds, no body told me how bad it hurt when that stuff hit your skin...Thanks for the warning :/

 

Now we were on our way to Florida, Thomas and I in the front seat and Thomas's mom and grandma in the back they road so they could take his car home from the hotel. We were both super nervous we weren't going to make it on time to the airport considering it was 2 hours away and I had never flown! Luckily we arrived there an hour and 45 minutes early and security was only 5 minutes long, yeah we were pretty darn lucky!! We sat and waited and read all the congratulations on good ole Facebook, bought some snack and before we knew it we were on the place headed to Daytona Beach, FL. We were so excited everything seemed to be working out in our best, which we found very hard to believe! We were in Florida, our first trip by ourselves, not going to lie it was kind of scary....but very exciting and I loved every gosh darn moment! :)

 

Up in the Air :)Just us, being us!!

Our view was pretty much AHHHmazing!!!:)

 

This picture was taken inside the backseat of a taxi, I personally do not like taxis because they charge SO MUCH!!! I was also sad we were leaving and some reason Very Very tired in this picture.

Well this is our story so far, I hope you have enjoyed, I will try and keep this updated a little better!
