I'm Engaged!!!

So our vacation to Colorado has actually been planned for months by everyone except ME!! The trip did not go exactly according to plan...we hit a deer on the way which was totally gross poor Chris had to pull to the side of the road and get under the car and pull excess parts out of the car and we had to drop the car off at the Nissan dealership in Colorado Springs to get fixed so that was the start....but after that it was smooth sailing.

Friday night Chris asked me to go on a hike with him...now anyone who knows me knows I don't do hikes....and he had his laptop with him so I was very confused? So as we start walking he starts to venture into the neighbors property and I was like "Chris this is not John's property what are we doing? Where are we going? Why did you bring your laptop?" Then he we started to climb these rocks and I really started to be a brat....of course I was in flip flops so I was not wearing the correct attire. Finally we make it to the top and it was breath taking, you can see all the valley and the sun was setting, so he finally pulls out his laptop, and says that he has been working on this video for months. It was a video collage thing of us, pictures of us dating, pictures of me and my family growing up, and they were playing to my favorite Garth Brooks song, I was balling it was so sweet! I still had no idea why he had done this...I still think I may be a bit blond! So at the end of the video I tell him it was beautiful I thank him, and he goes back into his backpack and says I need to ask you a question??? He pulls out the ring....My mouth dropped, it was beautiful, of course the first thing I asked was if it was REAL, because its freakin HUGE!!! lol I cried for about ten more minutes and finally after I stopped crying I got out YES YES YES!!!




WOO HOO we are getting married! July 2011 in Hawaii! We are super excited and I am so happy that I will finally be with the person I am meant to spend forever with! I love Chris with all of my heart and I couldn't imagine anyone else being with! Love you Baby!

Summer, Graduation, Lagoon, etc....

Wow, the last post was really April...I am the worst blogger in the world! So much has happen since then..First it's summer woohoo finally the cold is gone!! Yeah! When summer comes that means its LAGOON time...of course our family got season passes, Sam and I were the first to really use them..We had so much fun just the two of us! I think we had more fun in the shops looking at all the dumb stuff you can buy. Of course we road Wicked, The Rocket, & Samari a million times....I love that child I really do think she might be my child...shhh don't tell...








Also, exciting news...I finally convinced my mom to let Samantha to adopt a kitten. Since I moved out last year she has had no animals to love and I have felt horrible, plus I think it helps teach responsibility...lol So after much convincing we finally took her to the animal shelter in Ogden and she picked out this cute little grey kitty, when we went to go adopt the cat, this lady was like..."Guess What?" We are having this great deal, its buy one cat, get one free!!! SERIOUSLY people I am not joking, they were giving cats away like tank tops at Aeropostale. I thought I was going to die...But of course we jumped on it, and I went and picked out the cutest, furriest, kitty I could find. So we are the proud owners of not only 1 kitty but 2 thanks Ogden Humane Society... Here are some pics of Spartacus & Phoenix...




So big news...NEAL finally graduated! I know it actually happened. He even spoke, he was one of the main speakers. Here are some pictures...

Life Gives You Lemons Make Lemonade....

Sometimes I wonder why things happen??? Chris and I wanted to shed some of our winter coat and get a good kick start to our diet and we tried the Lemonade Master Cleanse, I had done it before (I cheated and ate salads on it). So we started last week, we bought all the right stuff, started out great....I actually did it right this time...NO FOOD...Chris struggled a lot cause let me tell you this kid can eat...I should enter him in an eating contest now that I am thinking about it....Anyway we go about 5 days and I am thinking SWEET!! half way done...Nope my body just rejected everything I got soooo sick, I had to quit, by body shut down completely, Chris's did the next day. So in conclusion we both lost a 11 pounds each gained 5 back, and to me it was not even worth it. Why did we even try this, was 6 pounds even worth not eating for 5 days, no way, and why did my body react the way it did. So that was an experience, now everytime I see a lemon I want to hurl...lol
Also girls maybe you can answer me this, Highschool was great, we had fun, but we did alot of stupid things. How come some of those things we can never leave behind. I feel like there is just one particular thing that no matter what I do in my life I can't not get rid of it. Its like this continual fly that wont die, they say flies only live 24 hours, well I think this fly dies but produces little mini flies that keep coming back and bugging me... ahhhhhh I recently found out some pretty upsetting news that to most people probably is not something that would merit anything, but to me all I want is REVENGE, and its taking all of my will power not to. I wish that I had the knowledge and strength that I have now back when I was in highschool, and I really wish that I had listen to my friends in Highschool to. I want to just really quickly give a HUGE APOLOGY to my friends in highschool who warned me...you guys were my true friends and I didnt see that, and I am sorry. I love you guys...anyway if that was not a cryptic post than man I dont know what is....lol
