More Chile (and we were so sad to leave)

We did so much while we were there!!! What a fun time it was!!! It went by WAY to fast though :( Maybe next time we won't have a reception to plan so we can do even more fun stuff!!

Our Chilean Wedding Reception!!!

So the main reason why we went to Chile in February of 2009 was to celebrate our wedding with all our relatives and friends that could not make it to our SLC or Colorado receptions (Nany's side). It was SO much fun to be able to see everyone!!! So many people helped make this happen! We are SO grateful to everyone that made it possible - from my mom, to my family, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, members in our ward, etc, etc. It was just absolutely wonderful. The food was great, so was the music, and the company was superb! We had a little program in which Zane and I told our engagement story and how we met, I sang a song to Zane accompanied by my dad, my aunt Brenda and my dad sang a song, and my tio Rene played some solos in his guitar. We ate, danced, visited with friends and family, and took pictures!!! Definitely an unforgettable night!

Vina Festival and Simply Red!!!

So while we were down in Chile, the "Festival de la Cancion de Vina del Mar" was being held, and my favorite band of all times was scheduled to perform. I couldn't believe it!! I was SOO excited! My whole family and I went. We were lucky to get tickets in "la galucha" hahaha. We had so much fun! :)

Chile!!!

My cute family had balloons and a sign that read Bienvenidos (welcome) when we arrived at my parent's house. We then had a post-Christmas celebration/gift exchange with my family. As soon as we could, we headed straight to the beach!!! Oh how I had missed my Chile!

CHILE TRIP!!!

We went to my beautiful Chile to have our Chilean wedding reception so we could celebrate with all of my family, relatives, and friends. The night before we left for Chile we had a mini Nany birthday celebration in which we went to Tucano's to eat some Brazilian (SO good!) and I got my nails done and had a pedicure (also to be ready for the reception!). We were SO excited to fly to Chile we couldn't wait!

Our 1st Married Valentine's Day!

Great memories!!! While we were still living in the Covey apartments we celebrated our 1st Married Valentine's Day. I think it fell on a Saturday and our ward had a Valentine's Day party. Since I was in the activities committee in the ward, we helped plan and MC the event. It was a lot of fun! Too bad we didn't take pictures! Zane surprised me with beautiful flowers, balloons, and a gorgeous necklace. I gave him tickets to the Grizzlies! It was my very 1st hockey game. Zane had to (and still has to) explain to me all the rules! We had a wonderful time, although the Grizzlies lost to the team from Bakerfield.

Happy birthday Mattias!

Mattias' b-day is only 4 days after Zane's. We went to Mapleton to celebrate his birthday with him. It's amazing to see how much this little boy has grown!!! I can't believe I once changed his diapers!

Luke came to visit!!!

Our dear Luke Hanzon came to visit us for Valentine's weekend. It is always so fun to see him!! I just enjoyed watching of Zane and Luke while they were playing the Wii, they were in their own little world!
