I don't even know how to start this post.....

How do I just come out and say it?

We're MARRIED!

did that work?

oh, so now I guess I should explain a little

and for those of those who think I am kidding, (ahem Brent), I will also post pictures.

As most of you know, Austin and I have been together for almost 4 years now...

Crazy, fun, exciting, not-so-exciting, years.

After many, many trials we finally got engaged in December 2010.

We had originally planned an April 2011 wedding but due to scheduling conflicts... aka my finals

we decided to postpone until October 2011. 

Long story short about 3 weeks ago, Austin and I were just chatting when we came to the conclusion that we should just "get married" so I took the ran with the idea and started planning everything that weekend.

Well... everything just fell into place, I didn't have class, my boss had to go out of town and everyone's schedule fit perfectly to our needs. 

We picked 04.14.2011, a Thursday evening at 8pm in downtown Gilbert, Arizona.

Cozy weddings of Gilbert was the place, and it was just that, cozy.

We got our marriage license Tuesday.

I got my dress Wednesday night ( Macy's Prom Dress haha) and cute shoes. 

Aubrey, Missy, Brit and Debbie threw me and awesome last minute bachelorette party.

Lori, Brandi, Janey, Chelsea were there too :)

Thursday I spent the day with Austin, getting ready and getting excited.

Lori and Dusty took us out to dinner that night.

( I ate too much, I'm surprised my dress fit!)

We went straight to the wedding location.

Everything was set up.

Bob and Debbie met us there.

We snuck Brandi in (the limit was 4 guests)

1 hour later.

I became Mrs. Garrard

I am more in love with Austin everyday and life has been absolutely perfect.

We are still having our big ceremony and reception in October.

I love being married to my best friend.
