I'm marrying my best friend in the entire world!

Ok, so my adorable man Trevor proposed! FINALLY! I guess I really shouldn't say finally considering we only dated 2 months... but hey, if you know you know! That was how long my parents dated... and they are still happily married! 23 years I believe! So Trevor Robert Orme = the love of my LIFE! of my eternity <3>

Apparently he stalked me for about 2 months... Creepy, I know! He would come study in the library where I work... and would wait for his computer screen to turn black so he could see my reflection in it :) :) :) cute, I know! I had noticed him and would occasionally 'purposefully' have something to do in the back of our department that conveniently led me right by where he was sitting. Sly, I know... but its ok! Eventually after two months, he had the nerve to come and talk to him! Then he asked me out. We clicked on our first date and have been inseparable since!

We have gone through a lot as a couple and have traveled all over the place! We've pretty much been all over utah! Fun times :) We've been down to Mesa, AZ... Cleveland, OH... Las Vegas, NV... and we're planning another trip down to Mesa this next month!!! And we'll probably end up taking a vacation to California this summer... and then the Caribbean for our honeymoon the beginning of May!!!!

Ok, the proposal :) :) :) We were in Vegas for Valentines Day weekend. We were staying with some of his extended family and just were down there to have a good time :) Saturday morning... we went and did baptisms at the Vegas Temple after taking a lovely morning walk... afterwards, we headed to the strip! We walked all over! Through hotels, taking tons of pictures, and eating unhealthy delicious food! I was kind of hoping the proposal was coming, but throughout the day I would hug him and feel for things in his pockets... to my dismay, nothing. I was getting rather depressed and kinda lost it when we went into Tiffany's to look at jewelry for fun. I snapped at him and told him it would just be easier if I had my ring and walked out. Poor Trevor... my mood lightened up after getting some cheese cake from the cheesecake factory :) :) :)We then went and walked th rough the Belagio :) BEAUTIFUL HOTEL! We got kinda lost... but eventually found our way out :) :) :) Then we made our way hastily up to the front to see the fountains! The sun had just set, and it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL! The weather was just right (a light jacket) and I had the love of my life by my side... couldn't get much better. Trevor handed our camera to a lady next to us and was showing her how to work it and asked her to take a picture. By this time the fountains had started. She took a picture and said she didn't like it so she was going to take a few more. At this point I was confuzzled thinking she was going to run off with my camera! Around that point, Trevor turned me around, said he had a question for me... and got down on one knee!!! I didn't think I would cry... but I just started bawling... He pulled out the ring and asked me to marry him!!!! I said "OF COURSE"! he put the ring on my finger and I kissed him with tons of people around and not even caring who was watching :) :) :) The fountains were still going and "Your Song" By Elton John was playing in the background. Absolutely perfect :) :) :) The rest of the evening was magical and I couldn't stop looking at my adorable Fiance Trevor! Later that night we ran into my Grandma Honey from San Diego on the strip! I havn't seen her in about 2 years! CRAZAY! So that was fun :) It honestly was the most incredible and perfect day I've ever lived. <3>

So thats our story :) :) :) <3>

We are getting married April 29, 2010 in the SLC LDS Tempe! Reception will be that night at Highland Gardens. There will be an open house in Mesa, AZ May 1st. We leave on our honeymoon May 2nd. Open house in Ohio June 4th! Oh how I love him!!!!

Christmas time is here... Happiness and cheer...

I figured even though I only have 3 followers... (sad, I know...)... that I should still post a new post! So voila! Here I am!

Its incredibly nice being done with the semester and finals... GROSS... only a week more of freedom then back to the books, oh well I spose... I do LOVE Utah! Being back in good ole' Ohio has been nice :) Dallin has actually been spending time with me and its been super nice! It's a rare thing... trust me... I've spent a lot of time with Grady... he's the coolest kid ever! SUPER annoying, but still cool :) we play a lot of Mario Kart... yeah... haha... anyways... Christmas was today! Or I guess yesterday, considering the fact its kinda super late now... Anyways, Grady insisted we got up at 7 am... so we did... Miranda, Dallin, Grady, and I all slept in the same room and Grady kept us up alllll night because he was too excited to sleep... ugh... LAME... then Miranda and Dallin snuck out at 3 am to sneak in the snowblower we got my dad... so that woke me up too... so present time! I got a GPS (I tend to get lost)... and a car adapter for my iPod... nice! Then just random cooking stuff... like a garlic press, a chopper, and a magic bullet! TIGHT! OH YEAH!!!! PURPLE BOOTS!!!!!!!! I <3 PURPLE! So it was cool :) I think I did really well with my families gifts this year... they all seemed super happy :) I played Super Mario Brothers on Wii with Grady! He's bad at it... we lost a lot... haha... then vegged out most the day... our family went and saw Avatar... and I'm not gonna lie... I enjoyed it :) very much so :) sooo yup! That was my Christmas!

Tomorrow I'm going shopping with my mom and Loubs (miranda)... should be fun! It's been nice being back... but I miss my independence. I've got a little over a week left... but I'm excited to get back to my life :) It's kinda exciting right now too! We shall see where this semester takes me! I've realized a lot lately how blessed I truly am! I need to live life to the fullest :)

My "Learning to dance in the rain moment" these past few days would have to be with my bro Dallin. Christmas Eve... He was being a snotty punk and being a jerk trying to get reactions out of the family... however, I realized that I knew there was nothing I could do to change it... so I ignored him... then he started taking pictures with us! When I started loving the situation I was in because I knew I couldnt change it... I became happy and circumstances changed :) :) :)

well thats it folks! I need to go to bed... and remember, DANCE IN THE RAIN!

My first blog!!!

Ok, so i'm just at work... chilling, then my dearest friend Jenny decided that we needed to make myself a blog :) and voila! here it is! I'm not really sure where to start, or what to say... but I love expressing how i'm feeling and cool epiphanies I have about life sometimes... <3 I figure this is a good place to start! and it'll be fun keeping my friends and family updated on my life! so...

I'm learning to Dance in the Rain <3 "Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass... it's about learning to dance in the rain ♥" ... one of my absolute favorite all time quotes! INCREDIBLE! life is hard... not gonna lie... when the storms roll in, we all at times just want to give up... dig a deep hole, crawl in it... and wait for the storm to pass. However, lately i've come to realize that I learn the most during the storm. Even though its hard, and it hurts, I dont want to hide in a hole waiting for it to pass. Life is more beautiful when we all learn to dance in the rain :) Even if it hurts to the point we dont want to go on or dont even know if we can, if we learn to dance in the rain... we'll all come out more beautiful than before :)

So be brave... crawl out of that hole... and please... PLEASE... try to learn to dance in the rain <3
