Honeymooners

                                                                      

Soooo it's actually been a few months since our wedding, but we finally went on our honeymoon this past week. We decided last minute to fly to the gorg country of Costa Rica, rent a car, and see as much as we possibly could. We hiked, rapelled, ziplined, and went free-falling through the rainforests. We bungee jumped, ate both terrible and wonderful food, and paid way too much for bottled water. We played with monkeys and watched sloths, and became total beach bums for a day or two. We got lost (literally) for hours in the hectic streets of San Jose and spoke Spanish with American accents.

I absolutely loved getting to travel, explore, and be adventurous with my hubs! But in all honesty, I feel like every week is exciting and wonderful in a simple kind of way. We don't have to travel the world to be in love or like being with each other- we just do. For that, I am forever grateful.




One of my most favorite things we did while in CR was going to our church there. It was such a strengthening and neat experience to get to go to a whole different country, and still be able to feel the same strength, faith, and love through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. How cool that even in this poverty ridden part of the country they still believe and are such faithful members of the church. We were so blessed to be able to attend service with these humble members!
One of the Hymns we sang during Sacrament meeting. Different language, same beautiful Spirit.

Getting ready to go bungee jumping.. what a rush!
The view from our balcony every morning.

Part of the rainforest reserve in CR. Breathtaking.

Two happy little gringos.

Tarzan swingin it up. I obviously wasn't doing it right haha

Jeff looking like he knows what he is doing.

The tide got so high that I had to move my towel because the waves were soaking it!

Zipling like a champ.

The only decent meal we had in CR. And it was FAB!
