Honeymoon. Beginning.

We had SO MUCH fun on our honeymoon!
I didn't take a camera :(
BUT I had my cell phone!!!
So thank goodness for modern cell phones and instagram!
With that being said, let the honeymooning begin!
 
The night of our wedding we stayed here in St. George! Jeff's "Pa" from the trek he went on years ago manages at the Abbey Inn and so he gave us a night there as his wedding gift! It was so nice and a lot of fun! Then the next day we packed and headed to Las Vegas! Driving around that first day we got a lot of honks and we kept forgetting that our car said "Just Married" so we got all confused then we would laugh!
 
In Vegas we stayed at Mandalay Bay in an extremely nice suite! I should have taken pictures but I just didn't think about it! We went out and ate in the shops at Mandalay Bay and while out in the shops we ran into this little picture head popper thingy and had to take a picture. You can't see the bottom but it actually has a banner across the bottom that says "Just Married!" What happens in Vegas...
 
 This is Jeff in the hallway of Mandalay Bay with our suitcase, all ready for the airport! We left the hotel at 6:30 am and took a cab to the airport. We parked at Mandalay so it could be free! Our flight was leaving at 8:30 and we wanted to make sure we didn't miss our flight to paradise!
 This is us all checked in at the airport and waiting to board! We were feeling like grown ups right about now!!
Bottom right corner is us in the air well on our way! Once we landed we waited for our checked bag, caught a cab to our rental car, then headed to Turtle Bay on the north shore! I loved just driving through Hawaii and telling Jeff all about the local spots and memories I have there, then having the realization over and over that we are married and we are really in Hawaii together! Once we got to Turtle Bay we went and checked in, my Uncle Arthur got us a killer deal at the resort so that we could afford it! We were so blessed with his help!
My Uncle Arthur and Aunty Peggy didn't stop with just hooking us up with an insane deal, when we got to our room we got a phone call asking if they could bring up an "amenity". We said yes and they brought up these adorable tuxedo chocolate dipped strawberries with sparkling cider and a card from my Uncle and Aunty saying congratulations! We loved it and it made us feel so special! We ate it right away and had big smiles on the whole time :)

Then the Hawaiian adventure began!!!
