Best day of my life so far.

Last night, Adam proposed!!! It was perfect! I had NO idea.
To get me out of the house, Megan & Sidney took me shopping.
Ad came to my house and talked to my parents.
My Mom called me while we were at the store and suggested that we have Sid take pictures of us for the wedding video & reception.
So we went around town and took some pictures...






Then, as we were walking down to the dock in daybreak he bent down to pick up a flower. Sidney had him kneel down and give me the flower...






We're getting married!!! November 3, 2011 in the Salt Lake Temple. I couldn't be happier! He's perfect for me :)

Not Bummer Summer

At the beginning of the summer, there were commericals on tv for the movie "Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer." I felt a little sorry for myself everytime it came on. Judy Moody was going to have a GREAT summer, and Jade Austin was going to have the bummer summer. Well, I don't know how Judy's summer turned out but I sure know how mine is going...completely opposite of what I thought it would be. Move over Judy Moody, this 'not bummer summer' is mine!! Ha :) I have had the greatest summer of my life. I didn't think life could get much better than this. I've spent everyday with Adam and I absolutely love every second of it. The summer is nearing the end and school will start again soon. I'm excited for my life to move forward but, these past few weeks are ones I never want to forget. This 4th of July was perfect. We got up early and went to the Murray Parade with my family, like always. I had to work and then after, Adam and I went and watched fireworks. Best firework show I've ever seen, maybe it's all because I was with my best friend :)
Adam's best friend Alisha got married today! I didn't go to the temple but we're headed to her reception tonight. I love weddings!! From what I hear she's a beautiful bride and I'm sure the rumors are true! I'm happy for both Alex and Alisha :)
There are some big decisions headed my way...and I know the answer. I just hope everything works out.

Too good to be true...

Adam came home! I'm so happy! These last few days with him have been perfect. I love spending time with him, laughing and making more memories :) he's so amazing! And the best part about it is, he's staying!! No more trips to Kansas cause he's not going back!! I am thee happiest and luckiest girl alive. Just when I think it can't get any better than it already is, it does! Almost too good to be true.

Megan turned 16 this week. I can't even believe my baby sister is driving...seems like just yesterday that she was born and I begged my Mom to make her play barbies with me. Its been a great 16 years with her by my side, through thick and thin. I've looked up to her in so many ways! She's the best sister ever. I love you kiddo :)

Summer is finally here. My allergies are KILLING me. Its rough. But i'm loving the warm weather. Gotta get out in the sun-Adam called me a ghost the othet day ;)

My Next Adventure.

How many miles you ask? 1042 miles..

You want to know how many hours? 16 hours and 26 mins..

Can I do it??

You better believe it!!

Witchita, Kansas..

memorial day :)

what a day.
it was nice to be home and chill. relax and spend some time with my family.
we went to my aunt marylynn's house tonight for a bbq. we had a ping pong tournament, it was a lot of fun. unfortunately, i'm a little rusty and got out quick. hope we do it again soon though :) it was good to see everyone.
everyone is growing up so fast...graduating pre-school, going into high school, getting married/engaged, getting their drivers license.... my cousin kevin is getting engaged in a few weeks and my cousin kellie got engaged 2 nights ago. meg passed her driving test and will be turning 16 in a few days.

it's been a week since i've been home from kansas. i can't believe how fast it went. it seems like i was just barely there. adam has been gone almost a month now!! crazy. at times it feels like he's been gone forever!! we got to skype tonight and i was sure glad to see his face :) made me really excited to hopefully see him again in 11 days!! i can't wait until august so that he will be done and be home!!

i start work full time this week. excited and bummed all in the same. i will love the pay check but miss my monday and friday days off!!

summer doesn't feel like its ever going to get here. it's been raining like crazy and i'm afraid it won't ever stop. i sure hope it does though. some sunshine will be nice!! the pool by my house is open now, i'd really like to go once the weather cooperates!! i never thought i'd say this, but i almost wish summer was over...but only for one reason :)

Fun Fact:

I MISS ADAM!

I want to go to sleep and not wake up again until Friday morning when its time to get in the car and drive 13 hours to see him! Pathetic, I know. But it's weird not being with him every night or being able to jump in my car and be there in 5 minutes. Man...only 4 more days-about 94 hours (my mom did the math, I think shr might miss him almost as much as me)

Miss you Lou :)

Lions, Tigers & Bears...oh my!!

I have thee cutest little brothers in the world!! I went to one of Colton's soccer games this week. There is quite a difference from last year to this year. Last year he'd dance around and look at his shadow while on the field, and this year he's actually kicking the ball and trying to score. I can't believe how fast he's grown up.


Before I went to Hawaii, the boys came over and colored Easter egss. It was a lot of fun!! I picked them up and Colton said, "Do you realize that I have a mohawk??" It made me laugh, he's got a little attitude! Megan's boyfriend, Colton, came over too and after they colored eggs, they went on a hike up the mountain and went on a "bear hunt" I think they had a pretty good time.




Megan will be 16 in a few weeks! I can't believe that she will be driving soon. It will be nice so that she can drive herself places now. I just feel like she's too young still. My siblings are just growing up way too fast!

Garden City, Kansas...only 12 hours and 47 minutes and 874.22 miles away!! Yes, I know it's crazy. But, I'm going!! It's going to be the longest drive of my life...but it will be very worth it. Adam has been in Kansas now for almost 2 weeks. He's been really struggling with the alarm sales. He finally got one though!! I'm so happy for him. It has only been a few weeks, things will pick up for him and he will do great out there!! I can't wait to drive out and see him though. I feel like these last 2 weeks have been longer than they really have been. It will be exciting :)
