I'm officially a Soderborg!! And Monday was my birthday and now it is Thanksgiving

Today is my 23rd birthday! And it has been a great day! Adam has spoiled me most of the day. I had class but he baked a cake we made for my Italian class and brought it up for me! It was quite yummy too especially because it had 20 dollar saffron in it. Ha. Anyway...when I got home, he had put out the fireplace my mom got us as a wedding present. (It is fake). And on top of the fireplace was HARRY POTTER CLUE!! Yay! I love Clue! It is my favorite game and I have most of the versions. After that we had lunch and then Adam gave me a massage which was absolutely wonderful. Then we headed to Ogden to have dinner with my twin, Tanya. (Our birthdays are on the same day that is why I call her my twin.) We went to the Olive Garden and it was so much fun! After we stopped by my mom's house and looked at some wedding photos (just ones that people have posted on Facebook, hopefully the real ones will come soon.) Then we headed to Tanya and Jace's house to have some cake and ice cream which was fantastic!! It was such a great birthday! :) I also had a party the Friday before which was awesome as well! =) We played some games and got pretty competitive! Thanks everyone for the great birthday! It was the best birthday ever!!

Well now today is Thanksgiving! Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Hope you all have had lot of good turkey and other Thanksgiving foods! =) Adam and I celebrated yesterday with a girl from work, Teresa. She had a big party at her house. It was fun and lots of yummy food! Then we played some games! =) Games are always fun! Ha!

Oh and for those who want to know about the wedding, can't forget about that! It was a pretty big day so I'll share how that went! It was perfect, absolutely perfect! The morning was a little chaotic, trying to get everything together and making sure I didn't forget anything. Then we had our rehearsal at 10:30 and that went pretty well. After that we had breakfast at IHOP and I had some yummy pumpkin pancakes which I didn't really eat a whole lot of. Then, it was off to get my hair and makeup done. That was a blast!!! Leiat did a wonderful job! If anyone needs a good hairstylist, let me know! She is great! After that it was off to Carmelle to get things set up and to get ready!! By this time I was pretty calm for the most part but I didn't have Adam's ring or my bridesmaid's presents so I paniced a little! ;) And 15 minutes before the ceremony started, I still wasn't ready! Ha! My bridesmaids dresses all needed to be steamed and that was a task all in its own! So we finally got me ready and my mom was pretty much having a heartattack! I wasn't too nervous yet but as soon as everyone started to line up, I started to freak out a little bit! I couldn't believe that it was here and that all of my dreams were coming true! Oh man! It gives me goosebumps everytime I think about it! The ceremony went off without a hitch and I didn't fall down the stairs! Thank you flip flops! =) I cried through most of the ceremony! I was so happy and I was so glad to have people there that I love! We then stood in line OUTSIDE to greet all the people who were there for the ceremony! I felt so blessed that someone was on my side and gave me a beautiful fall day to get married on! It is what I always wanted! After the line, we took some photos inside and outside and then the party started! It was so fun to mingle and meet people that Adam knew! It was just a blast but tiring! We didn't get out of there until 9:30 or 10:00. I don't remember the exact time. We went outside to get out of there and our car was completely trashed!! Ha! It was totally hilarious! Once we were ready to go, I realized that we hadn't had our marriage license signed! And that is one of the things I was worried wouldn't get done and of course I didn't think about it in the hoopla of everything! So Adam called to see if we could stop by and we found our bishop and had him sign it! Then it was off to Logan! We got there at around 12:30. It was a nice drive. And our room was beautiful and Logan was beautiful! We had a blast! =)

And for all of you who might be waiting for wedding pictures, they will be up soon! If you want to see them you are welcome to check out Facebook and a couple of my friends have posted some! And the real ones are coming soon I hope!

Happy late birthday! I have been wondering why you call Tanya your twin and vis versa, you share the same birthday. How fun. Im glad your wedding was perfect, you looked gorgeous in your pictures.
