Wedding rehearsal Thanks to everyone for helping set up!


THE BIG DAY - James & Jason getting ready


Jason - my handsome Baby getting ready Groom & Bestman

Me getting ready to go out. Before I walked down to meet my groom, I asked my family to say one last prayer for me. I felt quite emotional, but was trying my best to hold it back so that my face wasn't all red.

My nephew, Josiah getting people to sign the guest sheet

Matthias & Hanna... so cute!

Then I invited Mom & Dad de Leeuw to also pray together with me that all would go well

Josiah escorting Grandpa deLeeuw to his seat. I love this picture!

Rebecca DeMan escorting Jason's parents to their seats

James & Mandy - My Bestman & Maid of Honor

This was so absolutely cute & funny! Hanna & Jenica were supposed to walk up just before me spreading purple rose petals on the path and they poured them all at the very beginning. Everyone was laughing. They were all over the grass.. that's what adds character!

The wedding ceremony

Jason reading his personal vows to me

You may kiss the bride

Going up the path to sign the official papers Another hilarious happening.. we went to go sign the marriage license and it wasn't there. They forgot to bring it up so we were really shocked it wasn't up there.

Finally it's legal!

I was so excited I asked Jason to run back to the house...we are MARRIED!!

We went to the front of the house while Pastor dismissed everyone

A close up

Pastor giving us very special words

Just kissing...

Honeymoon Pictures - Victoria, BC

We went on walk around the downtown Victoria on a "Ghost Walk Tour", here is our guide.. he looks creepy!!

The Empress Hotel.. VERY HAUNTED
Another very haunted place.. the Parliment buildingsThe happening spot, by the water. There was a very laid back culture here.. many artists & musicians.

The bird is stuck!!

A beautiful walk just going outside of downtown, where you can see the water planes take off & land

Victoria sunset

We were looking for ghosts as it got darker.. but there was none... this is the Empress Hotel at night

We went to an underground water show.. it was pretty kewl, the guy went down there with all of his equipment on and was showing us and explaining the differant water creatures.

Jason was touching the starfish.. grossness!!

Wax museum - pretty realistic

He's giving me rabbit ears!!!

Torture place

We went for a long walk along the waterside in downtown Victoria

We went on a 4KM hike to the beachBeautiful hike!

Honeymoon Pics

The hike to the beachIt was 35 degrees and the beach was empty!!It was VERY sunny... we were squintingI love Jason!!
The end of the trip.. back at home.. can you tell I enjoyed the vacation. I found a new style!!

Proclaiming It!!

I’ve got the best husband in the world! Baby.. you are amazing. You look after me in a spiritual, physical, and emotional way. Not only that but every time I call you, you are doing something around the house…. Mowing the lawn, cleaning the basement, cooking dinner for me, doing the running around, fixing cars, building our room, painting, vacuuming, moving around the storage, earning some extra cash, reading your Bible, praying, teaching Bible studies, and listening to preaching. How could any body say that they have the best when the best is with me!! Thanks Babe and oh ya… did I mention… I LOVE YOU!!

Bro. Lee Stoneking

Satan is so weak that he couldn’t live for God even when there was no devil!!

Hmm

I heard this on the radio.. I thought it was funny!

Investing time to save a soul!

What am I doing to help bring someone to the Kingdom of Heaven? Am I doing everything that I can possibly do to see someone saved? Or am I so consumed with my own little busy life that I don’t have time for the Kingdom of Heaven. Serious questions we have to ask ourselves. It’s so easy to get caught up with life that you unintentionally leave out the souls that need our prayers, love, and fellowship! The Bible says only what’s done for Christ will last!! Why do we so easily forget that!! We can’t take this world to Heaven with us.. but we can take a soul with us.

Now that I’m married.. the stress of wedding plans are over, the stress of the first wedding night is over, and the stress of getting the room prepared for us to live in is over! Married life is beautiful.. the honeymoon period… I hope it never ends. I pray that we fall so much deeper in love like the couples that we look up too (the Kings, the Bentley’s, the Walz’, the DeMan’s). It’s so exciting to the both of us to see where God is going to lead us in the new Journey that we have embarked upon. We are anxiously waiting & trusting in God.

I have to keep reminding myself that this world is not my home… I can’t wait to see the face of my precious Saviour, Jesus Christ! God has been so good!
