Our Honeymoon!

We went to Disneyland!! This wasn't part of our plan. The day after our wedding we had a flight scheduled to take off around 7am to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. We got to the airport in plenty of time. We even boarded our plane. Once we were on and ready to take off the pilot came over the intercom and told us all that we had to get off the plane and go sit back in the terminal because the engine was leaking oil (or something like that) and they were going to "fix" it. We thought, no biggie we'll take off in an hour or so. So, while we were sitting back in the terminal we over heard that they had to cancel the flight all together and they were going to put us up in an airport hotel and have us take off the next morning........This was not an option for Mark, he wanted his new bride to be in a nice hotel and not sitting around waiting for our flight. So my amazing husband went over to the ticket desk and got us on a flight to LA that morning. The flight to Mexico that we would be on tomorrow had a layover in LA anyway and we could get on it then. So instead of waiting around in Seattle we took off to LA and Mark said "we're going to Disneyland!!" What a guy!! Here's Mark trying to get the sword out of the stone.....Mark is still just as fun and silly today as he was 5 years ago.
One thing that was really fun about our flight was that when we checked in at the desk back in Seattle we got upgraded to first class for free. This happened because I was carrying my bouquet with me. So the lady at the desk saw this and asked if we just got married and I said "YES!!" so she said "well congratulations, I'm going to upgrade you to first class." So we flew first class to LA and to Mexico. Not only did we go to Disneyland, we went in style! We finally made it to Puerto Vallarta. We were only a day late. We had a great time and it was nice and warm and so much fun.Here is Mark in the infinity pool at our resort. That's the Pacific Ocean in the background.

Then we got married again! Our resort offered beach weddings so we thought "why not?" They had an officiant, photographer, dinner and cake for us. We were already married but how fun to be married again on the beach at sunset! My mom made me a special veil for this wedding. It was just Mark and me along with the officiant and photographer. Everyone that watched thought we were eloping since we had no wedding guests there.....it was sort of funny. But very memorable for us. We even made front page news in Puerto Vallarta since our photographer worked for the local newspaper. We had no idea that he was going to do this and the next day we had been down on the beach and came back to our room and found this paper on the side table as a fun surprise.

Our honeymoon was very memorable in many ways.
