Mal and I had our first doc appointment this last Friday and we found out some sad news. The doctor could not find a heart beat so he had us do an ultrasound of Mal’s belly that day instead of scheduling it out like he usually would. The ultrasound showed no heart beat and it measured at at 9 weeks when we should have been at 14 weeks. Our doc scheduled us a ultrasound today, which is Monday to confirm his diagnosis.

Many of our close friends and family have been praying overtime for us this last weekend. Thank you so much, we love all of you and appreciate your support and strength.

We look forward to trying again really soon

Mal and I had such a blast in Mexico. We have been away for a night here and there since we have been married but nothing near a week. We took a cruise on the Carnival Pride to Mexico. We stopped in Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan and Cabo San Lucas. The photo slider below tells the whole story. This is the slideshow we played for our parents when we got home. The last pic explains new news the deserves it’s own blog post.

Here is a short video clip captured by a digital camera of me reading my vows from my iPhone.

Well we survived one week! Happy 1 week anniversary to us. Actually it’s been amazing. I love being married. Can not imagine life any other way. We have been so busy this last week getting wedding gifts put away. Mallory has had fun throwing all of my stuff away, ok not all of it, but things we received replacements of. In some ways it is still a bit surreal, but that will pass with time. I’m sure everybody goes through it, it’s quite a change.

Life is great, love all of you, thanks for supporting us!

Last night we went to see the Giants play the Padres, what an awesome game. Completely scoreless until the bottom of the 9th when the Giants send in one run to win the game. We had great seats, we were in the 10th row along right field. The night got progressively colder quite fast as you can see we went and got some beanies. We would love to go to another game, anyone wanna go?

Here are a few photo sets from the wedding weekend. We also created a Flickr group, so if you took some of your own photos we would love for you to upload your pictures to our flickr group so we can see them. If you took some pictures at our wedding, go to our flickr group, sign up (for free) and upload your pictures. http://www.flickr.com/groups/jerandmal/

I could not have been happier with how our wedding day turned out. It was the most amazing day of our lives, almost larger then life. We were surrounded by the people we love who were there to support us in our decision to share life together as one. My bride was the most beautiful bride I have ever seen. No other bride that I have photographed before can even compare. I have never seen the church decorated so nice, Mallory’s Mom did an amazing job surpassing anything I could have imagined. There was a lot of hard work on behalf of many people that made our day happen. Thank you to all of you for your hard work and dedication to perfection.

There are so many memories from our special day. Please share your favorite memory in the comment box below.
