News!!!!! & Some wedding pics :)

I GOT IN TO MY PROGRAM AT SCHOOL :) I am so excited to be able to start my program and to become a teacher someday! I only have 3 more semesters left of school and then I am a teacher! Pretty crazy, but i'm so excited to get started! I'm actually getting excited for school to start again.. Casey can't wait either because he is going to do some online & night classes as well, so it will be great to have a study buddy :)

Being married is so fabulous :) Casey was laughing at me yesterday because I love being a wife so much! I love cooking and cleaning and doing laundry and all those fun wife things! It's still kinda crazy to think that we are married, but we are loving it so far! Casey is a great husband and I love him a lot :)

Here are some pictures... My mom took some of us the night before the wedding and then Wendy McClendon took our pictures the day of the wedding.. I also stole a few from my sister in law Chelsea ... There will be more to come once we get them :)

Wedding.. Some Pictures :)

Casey & I got married last Thursday July 15th! We got married in the Mesa, Arizona temple and it was 118 the day of the wedding! Let's just say everyone probably lost 10 pounds just from sweating! Casey & I are so blessed to have the family that we do. We had an open house in Kaysville July 10th that Casey's mom planned and it was beautiful :) The yard had tables with big white umbrellas attached and pretty decorations in hot pink and orange and we had fondue and cute cupcakes for food :) The day of the wedding my step mom Shye had our luncheon planned at the Wright House in Mesa. The Wright House was gorgeous and the food was delicious (also prepared by Shye). She also made our cake which turned out SO cute! My basically Aunt Wendy took our wedding pictures that day and she did fabulous :) Everything was so great the day of the wedding.. we had so many family and friends there to help us celebrate our special day. Our Pocatello Reception is July 31st so we are looking forward to that one as well! We just love our family and friends and want to thank you for all of your love and support you have shown for us :)

Bridal Showers & such

I know this is a few weeks late and i'm kinda horrible at posting things, but I figured I would post some stuff from the bridal showers! Aubri was such a great maid of honor and threw 2 showers for me that had fun games and fabulous bath and body works prizes and food! Not many people showed up, but they were still fun :) Thanks to everyone who came!

Me & the sisters by the pretty table Aubri, Mom & Grandma put together :)

Us in our garters... we played a game where we couldn't say the words wedding, bride, or cute and if we caught someone saying any of them we got to take their garters! The one with the most at the end of the shower won the prize :) at the Logan shower my nephew Bennett was there and it was hard to not talk about how "CUTE" he was!

Me playing a game where I had to answer questions about Casey and if I got them wrong I had to chew a piece of gum... needless to say I had a HUGE wad in my mouth at the end!

WOOT WOOT! I got a question right! :)

I opened this gift from grandma and it had a beautiful white nightgown in it with these mesh panties.. I was looking at them thinking they were rather large and there was no way I was going to fit in them... Turns out they are CASEYS! hahaha

The corset I got from Lauren :) I got a lot of fun stuff from Grandma Arlene as well... at the Logan shower I got a lot of things for the kitchen... all in all the showers were GREAT! :)

We only have 8 more days til the big day!! We go through the temple in 3 days, so I went with mom, grandma , jaylen, and carly to buy garments and such.. it's getting exciting! I can't believe how quickly everything has come!!! We will be in Arizona on Monday night! Life is gonna be crazy for a while, but we are looking forward to it ! :)

Some Engagements...

Morgan Kirkham took our pictures and she did such a great job :) I figured I would post a few of my faves.. to see them all go to morgankirkhamphotography.com

35 days and counting :)

We now have officially 5 weeks left until the big day! We have been working hard the past 6 weeks to get everything ready for the wedding and almost everything is done! I couldn't be more happy about it either... I now understand why people elope. There are so many silly little details. I was talking to Lyndsay who is getting married the week after me and we were laughing about how there is never another time in life where you make so many silly decisions that don't even matter! It is CRAZY!
Casey and I are really looking forward to getting endowed in exactly one month! We went and did baptisms tonight and just love the temple. We can't wait to be able to experience all the blessings the temple provides!
My first bridal shower is next weekend in Logan and I couldn't be more excited! I am so lucky to have so many great friends who are willing to come and celebrate this time with me :) I also have the most fabulous Maid of Honor (my sister Aubri). She made the invites by herself and has been planning all of the activities and such.
We are also really lucky to have our families to help us out... our wedding day would never be anything close to what we are getting if we didn't have families who were so willing to help and make everything about the day special..I will blog again with pictures from the bridal shower sooN!!!

:) 35 days and counting

ENGAGED :) :)

So... I am engaged!! YAHOO!! :) The big day is July 15th and we are getting married in the Mesa, Arizona temple and are so excited for it! I am definitely in complete planning mode... all I can think is wedding right now haha.
Here is how he asked me :)....

He took me to this nice restaurant called Elements in Logan for lunch. We got to the restaurant and there were flowers on the table that were pink and orange (colors I had said I would like for my wedding... he pays attention). I didn't really register that the flowers were mine until a few minutes after sitting down. I began to be suspicious because I didn't know why he would have flowers at the table. We ordered and the waitress was actually this girl Caci from my PE class! That was ironic.. but anyways we ate and when we were finishing up Casey handed me a letter telling me why he loved me and why he wanted to marry me. At the end of the letter it said "Will you be my wife?" I looked and him and he said "No worries I am not doing it here, I just wanted you to have that!" The waitress then came out with dessert and another flower with the ring box. He got down and asked me to marry him and I said YES! I am such a lucky girl! He treats me like a princess and I just love him! :)

The beautiful flowers Casey got me :) I LOVE THEM!

The strawberry daquiri Casey ordered for me! It was way yummy! :)

Right after I said YES!


The chocolate covered strawberries the restaurant gave us :)
Casey surprised me with tickets to the Jazz game! Us at the Jazz game! GAME 6! Jazz won! YAHOO! :)

Thumbs up for a good game and a great day! :)


Here is my ring! So the story of the ring is kinda funny... back when we were first talking about getting married I started to look online at different rings and this is the first one I saw and fell in love with... I never ended up trying it on because we went to another jewelry store. Ironically, we ended up going back to Morgan Jewelers and looking at rings. I hadn't found one I loved yet, so we went one more time to see what we could find. The jeweler had this ring pulled and my eye was automatically drawn to it, so of course I put it on! I realized it was THE RING I had loved from the very beginning! So in a way, it was fate :) hehe. I LOVE IT!!! And I LOVE CASEY!!! :) YAHOO!!

Today I got to go dress shopping with my mom, mother-in-law to be, grandma, and my sisters! It was such a fun time and I found a dress! I am so excited! Now for all of the crazy planning to take place! BUCKLE UP... Here we go !! :) :)
