I’m Back!!!

February 20th, 2008 @ 12:37 pm by Mrs. Gardenia



After such a long and very much needed break from it all (Christmas holidays, wedding preparations, rehearsals, wedding, honeymoon, birthday and being sick and injured) - I am back and now a MRS!!!

Our wedding was the first weekend of 2008 and though it was a rainy Southern California Saturday, everything turned out so well. It’s definitely been such a surreal feeling calling Mr. Gardenia my husband, but what an exciting and wonderful feeling. We left for Maui a week after our wedding giving us an opportunity to spend some time with our OOT guests and get settled in our new home.

Our honeymoon accommodations were a gift from a family friend of ours so we were able to stay at the Kaanapali Beach Club (formerly Embassy Suites) in Maui . We stayed in Maui for 7 days and enjoyed every single second of our honeymoon vacation. Mr. Gardenia and I enjoyed the sites, a wonderful luau, the Maui Ocean Center , black sand beaches, rain forests, waterfalls and even the local Maui Medical Center. Yes, the medical center. Mr. Gardenia and I were hiking through one of the waterfalls in Hana when I slipped on one of the rocks and suffered a bad sprained ankle. We visited the Maui Medical Center and ended up leaving there with a temporary cast plus crutches. I felt really bad that incident had to happen, but it gave us an opportunity to really relax . We did a lot of driving around the island that we both truly enjoyed. I celebrated my birthday (my first birthday as a Mrs.) in Maui on our last night with a delicious luau at the Hyatt Regency hotel.  

There’s definitely a lot of blogging that I have to catch up on with my wedding details & DIY, wedding pictures, more honeymoon pictures and my wedding lessons learned. I have missed everyone from Weddingbee and look forward to sharing with everyone once again. Also, welcome to the new bees - I’m excited to have more bees in the family. And how exciting to have a weddingbee shop. I can’t wait to go shopping!!!!
