We wanted to recreate our honeymoon for our anniversary. We danced to the same song that Jason sang to me 10 years ago, and then he gave me my present: a digital camcorder. (So I'm sure you'll be seeing more videos on here now.)

Jason's Nan works at Movie World (the Australian equivalent of Six Flags), and so she was able to get us a good deal at a sister company-- Sea World. She's worked there for a while, because she did the same thing for our honeymoon. I took a picture of Jason just outside the Resort, and yes, I know it's a horrible picture-- but it'll have to do.

After we checked in we drove to the chapel we were married in. I was hoping to take the same picture poses we did on our wedding day, but they renovated and changed a lot. So we weren't able to do that, but we still posed like nerds in front of the church.

On our honeymoon, we went to a casino and we both had seafood plates. Mine had baby octopus in it, and Jason made me gag after I started to chew it because he said it would crawl out of my throat. This time we had dinner at the Resort, and we were laughing when we saw they had baby octopus at the buffet (a $65 buffet! but SO not worth it). So of course I had to prove that I still had the guts to eat it.

After dinner we were going to go to the same above mentioned casino, but on the way back to our room, my shoe broke! I got some killer shoes in Sydney (that post will come eventually), and the heel was starting to break off. Let's all shed a tear for my killer shoes. So instead of going out, we took a nice long bath. Oh, and when we first got to the hotel we both took nice long showers. I showered until my fingers were wrinkly-- yes, that's right, I used water, and I wasn't afraid to use it. So stick it, Australia! Yes, we were naughty and we totally ignored the sign in the bathroom saying to only take a 4 minute shower. (We also ignored the signs above every light saying to shut it off to save power, and we ignored the sign saying to hang our towels so we could reuse them. We did it, and we'd do it again. We felt we deserved that after 6 months of 2 minute showers. I very much enjoyed shaving my legs while the water was still running too. Sorry, are you picking up on the resentment?)

So that was our honeymoon. Thanks so much to the in-laws for watching the kids so we could enjoy each other.









p.s. Sorry the pictures are out of order-- I'm still learning.

...and, you see that picture of the food? Can you see the baby octopus sitting on top? It looked so cute. And then I ate it. But no, it wasn't alive you dorks, so don't even ask.
