That Special Day



It was early in the afternoon on April 8th when I had the opportunity to enter into the St. George Temple for the first time. It seemed like it took forever to finally get everything going. I remember the moments right before the sealing took place. Sitting there in the temple surrounded by family and friends but most importantly the girl that would soon become my wife and make my life complete. Sitting there was hard, I wanted to get up and get married already but I knew that it would all come in time. Once we were finally able to kneel across from one another it seemed to go by in an instant and the next thing I knew I was married to the most amazing girl in the world. We exchanged rings and received congratulations from all of those who came to witness our special day then it was time to change clothes. We parted for a short while and when all things were said and done we emerged from the temple, this time as Mr. and Mrs. Andreasen


We shared our first kiss as we walked out the doors and were greeted by our family and friends. Then the pictures started coming. It was a great opportunity for me to be close to Kori. We stayed around the temple for a few hours just taking pictures and enjoying the experience we had just had when two lives were joined together never to be separated. The wedding party joined us as we took our pictures and I have heard someone say of that party that if it weren't for Kori wearing that white dress you would be hard pressed to tell if this was a wedding or and international sexy-people festival but I will let all of you decide for yourselves.

I for one agree with what was said, especially when I look at the pretty girl in the middle. All in all it was an amazing day for us and I can't wait to get the rest of the pictures so that I can share even more of it with all of you.

Just A Little Addition

Well Michael pretty much said everything but I just wanted to add that he is such a wonderful guy that always takes care of me. I love the time we are able to spend together because we always have fun with whatever we are doing. I love Michael so much and nothing will ever change that. He means everything to me and I can’t even imagine living without him. He makes my life a lot better because he always encourages me to do my best. Hopefully soon we can put up pictures from our wedding and reception so everyone can see how happy we are when we’re together.

The Beginning

Now that I have started the beginning of my eternity with the most wonderful person in the world, my wife Kori, I wanted to start a blog that we could use to stay in touch with everyone and let them know what is going on in our lives.
As most of you know we started our life together on April 8th 2008 in the St. George temple when we were sealed for time and eternity. I'm not one to get very emotional but I will admit that there were a few times that day when I had tears come to my eyes as I realized I was being sealed to the person I love the most in the whole world for time and for all of eternity. It is a very exciting time for both of us right now. We are still trying to get settled into our room and hope that we can do that soon so that we are able to have some form of normalcy come into our lives. We are both very excited to start our lives together and look forward to the challenges and exciting times that await us as a married couple. Right now I don't have any pictures of our wedding or our reception on my computer so those will have to come with time. Once I get them I will post again to let you all see how wonderful our special day was.
