Miss Engaged!

On Monday we had our engagement pictures taken in Park City, Utah. It was cold and a little snowy but we survived with the help of Josh and Emmy Jones. They are family friends of ours and I am so glad we had them take our pictures! Emmy is the master behind the camera and Josh serves as the 'un-offical' choreographer. We had a BLAST.

Check out her cute blog to get a sneak peak!

PS-50 days till the wedding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Miss Goal Setter

For the rest of the year, I have set a goal to make at least ONE effort a week towards finding a job after graduation. (Yes, I am graduating in December!)

I will be designing my resume in Adobe Illustrator. Check out my current resume.


Miss Blog-Gram

Nephi surprised me at work, with this!! EXACTLY what I wanted. Chocolate & Flowers.

Good boy.

Thank you so much Nephi. Here is my favorite poem (since like 5th grade), dedicated to: Why.OH.You.

TO MY DEAR AND LOVING HUSBAND
by: Anne Bradstreet

If ever two were one, then surely we.
If ever man were lov'd by wife, then thee.
If ever wife was happy in a man,
Compare with me, ye women, if you can.
I prize thy love more than whole Mines of gold
Or all the riches that the East doth hold.
My love is such that Rivers cannot quench,
Nor ought but love from thee give recompetence.
Thy love is such I can no way repay.
The heavens reward thee manifold, I pray.
Then while we live, in love let's so persever
That when we live no more, we may live ever.




I love you Nephi Daniel!

Miss Pictures

Nephi and I are getting our engagement pictures done on the 20th in Utah. My mom sent us this to help us get ready for them. I love you Mom. You are so cute.


I am kind of getting anxious about it. Honestly, I have been planning my engagement picture outfits longer than my ring but now that it is actually coming, I am drawing a blank! I need help.

Any advice? What should we wear? Should it be our wedding colors?

I am falling apart.

Miss Support

Nephi's brother and sister-in-law are so inspiring. Please help support! I added a button on my right side-bar. Check it out.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Miss Bling Bling

Have I mentioned how much I love my ring?

Cool story: Ever since about, high school, I have wanted a flattened diamond ring. (Now is know to call it a pave anniversary band.) I honestly haven't thought about it for a while until I started dating Nephi. When we started talking about marriage and eventually getting more serious about it besides the whole, "I can't wait till we get married (sigh)," kind of phase and more into the, "We are getting married and we need a ring," kind of phase, I finally started thinking about my ring.

We went ring shopping a few times in Rexburg and found a few that I liked but nothing that I loved and couldn't live without. We went home to Arizona and knew we HAD to buy the ring then. So, we went to Jared's and found it! I loved it and I knew it was the one. The price wasn't awful and we could even purchase "insurance" on the ring that would include: cleanings, diamond replacements, sizing, etc, for life! I was pretty convinced. HOWEVER, the our sale'lady' was really annoying. She kept trying to convince us to open an account with them, even though we said we didn't want to buy that day. We were annoyed.

Our friends told us that we should check out the Shane Co. before we leave Arizona. The Friday before we left, we went. My parents newer rings are from there and they are beautiful so I knew we would see a great selection. WE DID! At first I was discouraged because their bands were still too 'skinny' and not bling enough but she felt like she had seen the design I want in their company in the past. She checked online and found it. Then checked if they had it in stock in their store in Scottsdale, and found it. But, it wasn't out on display. She went into the back room and it turns out that they were just cleaning it to put on display. Just our LUCK!

Nephi bought it and we picked it up the next day, all sized and ready to go! What a relief. I love it and I thank Nephi almost every day for it. It is like our first child. We can't stop looking at it. :) Now all I need is a ring for Nephi...

Miss Signature

Here is my new signature!! It actually was SUPER easy to do. Click HERE to find out how. I did mine in photoshop. I will probably be editing it over the course of the next few days as well.
