Married + Visiting Disneyland! Life Updates

It’s been a hot minute since I last wrote a post. I’m glad to be back, as I don’t foresee any barriers to writing regularly again. I enjoyed my break and not feeling bound to pre-writing posts every week. I wanted to share a couple of life updates now that I have had time to unwind.

Wedding Bliss

Image is a photo of me and my husband on our wedding day. We are both smiling at the camera. He's wearing a dark suit with a burgundy tie. I'm wearing a white dress with a v-neck.

On Saturday, October 2nd, 2021, I married the love of my life at Four Daughters Winery in Spring Valley, MN. My now husband proposed on May 4th, 2019, which was both Star Wars Day & Free Comic Book Day. During the wedding planning process, we decided to get married in 2021, which allowed us to be stress-free during the COVID-19 pandemic.

I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding. It was partly cloudy, Fall colors were showing, and we were able to get married outside in the middle of the vineyard. My husband is my life partner, and I’m thrilled to make it official.

Visiting Disneyland

My husband and I are planning a huge honeymoon trip to Europe next year. We wanted to wait to ensure that we wouldn’t have to quarantine for two weeks. I still wanted to go on a trip to celebrate our marriage. We planned to fly into LA, stay a few days in San Francisco, and I wanted to spend at least one day in Disneyland. This will be my first trip to Disneyland; however, my husband has been to Disney World before. I’m planning to spend extra time at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, along with visiting the newly opened Avengers Campus. I have also heard Disneyland during Halloween is all decked out with pumpkins this time of year. As someone who is a big fan of Halloween, I’m looking forward to seeing a Spooky version of Disneyland.

Back to Reality

I’m relieved to be done with wedding planning. Both my husband and I have spent long hours crafting the perfect wedding, so it’s a nice feeling to be done. I have been spending my time catching up on Critical Role, reading spooky books, and playing video games. I’m looking forward to Critical Role‘s third campaign premiering towards the end of October, although I’m not halfway through their first campaign. I’m currently reading The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix, and I’m into it. It’s been nice to focus on my interests and happiness versus the wedding.

I’m excited to be back writing regular posts again! I have missed spending the time writing posts, and I look forward to catching up on what I have missed.
