The name and content of this blog might change in the future to more adequately represent the interests of all those involved. For now, since I am the one left in charge of any and all computer related tasks, it will look like I think it should. So without further ado here are some of the pictures we have taken over the past few weeks of our marital/familial bliss.

The majority of our captured images are either of our wedding or our honeymoon. I'll try to reduce the redundancy as much as possible, but I only have so much to work with. Here is my beautiful wife staring longingly at the overwhelming magnificence that is my head. Sydney appears to be preoccupied with something else, though she might be praying. It's hard to say.

Here we are with what appears to be red eyes. It might be fright, or lack of sleep, or just the inability of the person taking the picture to find the red-eye eliminator function on the camera. Once again, it's hard to say.

Since the majority of people viewing this post will undoubtedly have attended the ceremony I will move on to the honeymoon pictures.

For those of you who have never seen it, this is what Stacy looks like when she gets into one of here masochistic modes. She is about to begin a 10 mile trek down a plateau and through a river bed so that she can sleep in a tent, eat dehydrated food and swim in water that is really much too cold to swim in. All to see blue water. Seems kind of silly when you think about it.

I am joining her on this mission of self torture for pleasure.

Ah, the payoff. This is Navajo Falls, the first of four beautiful falls.

See that babe sitting in the water? That's my wife!

Did I mention that the water was cold?

This is the namesake, Havasu Falls. It is very worth the hike.

This is Mooney, at 200 feet tall it is the tallest of the falls.

Stacy and some random people are pondering whether or not it would be easier to get to the bottom by jumping from the top. Fortunately they all decided to hike down.

This is beaver falls, by the far the hardest to get to. You'll notice that this picture is taken from a distance. We didn't actually get down to these falls.

This is a picture from the vantage point of two people not looking forward to the hike to the top of that plateau. Yes this is the infamous hike out.







WARNING: For those of you who might be wondering whether or not you should try this hike with your significant other, this is the result of under estimating the difficulty of this hike. Just so you are aware. The last half mile is much tougher with two packs on, but it feels twice as good when you're done.



We will be back with more soon.
