The Natural Bridge

This Saturday we went for a little hike and beautiful scenic drive to the natural bridge!
We went with our friends Tina and Zane. They were married 1 week before Nathan and I. We have loved spending time with them. They are a great couple.........lots of fun!

Nathan likes action shots - sorry to catch you eating Zane. We enjoyed a picnic lunch in the great outdoors of Australia!

It was such a beautiful day - We love the outdoors and are looking forward to more hikes in the future. We have planned to take day trips and explore the great country we live in!!

Our Honeymoon in Noosa!

Here are a few pictures from our honeymoon. I know our photo's our out of order but soon we will catch up and start posting things as they happen! We spent about 4 days away in Noosa for our Honeymoon. Nathan plan and prepared it all and it was perfect! This is us on the beach showing our rings and not really beliving that was are actually married.

We stayed in a self contained apartment and cooked our meals together. Nathan prepared some great things on the BBQ. Look at the view.........


This was one of our yummy meals.....

And lots of choices for breakfast......

Nathan sitting down to an evening meal. Everything was so nice in our apartment. We loved it.
This hot tub was on our balcony. It was fantastic as it overlooked the ocean - very relaxing.

This is a veiw of the apartment, then there was a beadroom, kitchen, laundry.... All self contained and new. Nathan did a great job with this place.

We loved spending our days swimming in the ocean and walking along the beach at night. We had perfect weather. As you can see it was beautiful.

One night Nathan caught a fish! He still cant belive that it is safe to walk along the beaches at night here in Australia - it is one of our favourite things to do.
This is what we rode up to get to our room. Just getting to our room was fun......

We had a lovely time and are so excited to be married to each other. After the honeymoon it was back into Uni, work and real life! Which has been new adventures. It has been a busy few months. Nathan completed a good semester of uni. Freya has been busy teaching and also been called as Seminary teacher (6am every morning!) Nathan also just got his Queensland Licence making him feel more at home in Australia. Life is busy, but also great!

We are married! This is a few months late now- but better late than never........ We were married in the Brisbane Temple on Feb 28th 2009. It was such a beautiful day. We had many of our family and friends there to share in the special day. Here are a few pictures to capture the memories of the day.
One of our favourites! We are in love........

Our wonderful parents. Without them there would have been no wedding! We love you.

Here are a few pictures of our little home! They are all pictures of downstairs. I will take more photos and post them at a later stage! We have loved getting our little home all organised and fixing it up! This is a dining area - the table feels so big when it is just Nathan and I eating there. But it is great when we have family and friends come to join us!

This is the view from the kitchen looking into the lounge room. It is a little dark but you can kind of get the idea!


This is our little kitchen!



And another veiw of the table and kitchen. These are my favourite flowers. Queen of the night tulips! I was so excited when Nathan bought them home...... Just wish that they live for longer! They are beautiful
