The Latest News!

So, I haven't been really good at keeping my blog up to date...but here's an update of what's been going on...

September 13: Got ENGAGED! Andy and I got back from a presentation in SLC around 10 or 11 pm. Because we hadn't eaten dinner, we went and at ate Betos. After we were done, it was almost midnight. As we were leaving, he asked me if I wanted to go home. I didn't really want to but I had expected Andy would want to go home to do homework. But, I told him that I didn't really want to so he asked if I wanted to go somewhere. I said sure. So we just went driving and we were talking. We ended up going to the bottom of the 'Y' to look at the city lights. It was really pretty! We were talking and somehow got on the subject of me having a ring. He then asked my how I wanted to be proposed to. Of course I thought it was a silly question and I told him he had to figure that out himself. But then he said he needed ideas just like I wanted ideas for his birthday. So giving in, I said I would want it to be romantic and be a surprise. He then asked me if I considered where we were was romantic. I said yes. The lights were really pretty and we were together and talking. Then, he gave me a kiss and slid the ring onto my finger at the same time. Then, he asked me to marry him. Of course I said YES!!

October: My family came down to Utah because my parents were leaving for their mission. They have been called to serve in the Taiwan Taipei Temple for 18 months. At first, I was worried that my parents wouldn't be able to come back for my wedding, but they've received permission to come back. I'm sooo excited that they'll be able to make it!

Anyway, those are the big highlights. I will be getting married Dec 20th in the Columbia River Temple. Sometimes, i still can't believe that it's acutally happening. It still seems like a dream. But I'm excited for Andy to become my husband. :)
