It's Official!

It's official! At one o' clock on Saturday, September 20, 2008 Matthew and I exchanged both rings and vows, and officially became the new Mr. & Mrs. Bateman! It seriously feels like a dream. I have so many things to do right now, and the last thing I should be doing is playing around on the computer. However, before we leave on our trip to Mexico, I felt it was very important to just jot down a few things about what has gone on this past week. It was the best day I could have ever imagined and thankfully there is really nothing I would change, nor do I have any regrets. It was absolutely perfect. And most importantly, everyone had such a fun time. Many great memories were made, and that is what it is all about. From the speeches, to the photos, to all of the people that were in attendance. It was so great. Nothing tops it. It is so amazing how so many wonderful people there are in this world, and overwhelming at how generous they are with everything...be it time, money, efforts in different ways, with their jobs...I could go on and on. The level of caring and compassion in everyone is completely overwhelming. Everyone worked so hard to make the day such a great success...and really with no expectation. So many people did so many things, just out of the simple goodness of their hearts...it really was incredible. Thank you to everyone who made it such an amazing day. It was a total dream, everything and more than I could have ever imagined. It was truly the best day of our lives. We are on our way to Mexico now, for a nice relaxing break and opportunity to make even more amazing memories. The camera is ready, batteries are charged and ready to go! Talk to everyone when we get back! Adios!
