No time for a breather...

Right after we got back from our honeymoon we spent a few days in Chilliwack and then drove to Saskatoon with only a few days break before we were on the road to Barrie Ontario for our friends Andrew and Andrea's wedding. We sort of made it into a more rugged second honeymoon as we camped along the way after driving 8 hours a day. We went through the states on the way there and through canada on the way back, I would recommend the Canada route, much more to look at and a lot less busy.

After hours of decorating the boys decided to take the row boat out in a scummy pond and while they did us girls took advantage of the opportunity to steal our friends mark and joel's mustang that they rented while they were out in barrie.

I've never driven so fast is such a short distance in my life, it was quite the thrill and pretty scary once Andrea (the bride) go to drive, she didn't hold back that's for sure.

This lovely black/purple eye was given to joel by my husband the night before the wedding, I'd say it matches the purple shirt pretty good.

We surprised Andrew and Andrea with a canoe that a bunch of us pitched in on, sweet present eh?

I think these happy campers like their new boat.

And after the wedding...comes the Honeymoon!

We had an awesome time in Waikiki for our honeymoon. We were there for a week and took in as much as we could. We bought a 4 day island bus pass and did our own tours, giving us way more freedom then being stuck in a tour group filled with old people, it was definitely the way to go as we were able to see every coast of the island and secret places we may not have seen otherwise. Some of the best things we did was a sailing trip one morning where we got to see dolphins a few feet away from our boat and we snorkeled around a coral with tonnes of colorful fish. We also made it up to the north shore and saw the famous bonsai pipeline which can have huge waves but had only moderate ones when we were there since it was off season but they were still pretty big. We snorkeled more in other spots, climbed an extinct crater, hung out on the whitesand beaches and other good stuff like that. It's hard to believe that we were actually there, sometimes it feels like a dream...if only we could still be there.

This is us after a very hot and sweaty climb up the Diamond Head crater.

A married woman

My husband has gone away to the land of Plenty, SK to do his teaching practicum and I'm left here all alone during the week so I figured blogging might help me feel like I'm conversing with someone or at least fill my time. So here it is...the Blog of Chris and Vicky.

I guess to start things off for those of you who have not seen or even heard of us getting married here are a few pics from our wedding which was one June 4th this year, almost 3 months now! How time flies.

This is my handsome husband and me.

Can you tell it was pouring in this last pic? Didn't think so.

We had such a great wedding and such amazing pictures to prove it! Things didn't necessarily turn out the way we wanted as we planned on getting married down at the beach at Cultus Lake but the day of the wedding it drizzled all day so we went with our back up and got married at the camp we met at which turned out to be way more meaningful. Funny how things turn out like that.
