the summer begins...

Paul's niece had her bone marrow transplant Wednesday!

her tv moment: http://video.nbc10.com/player/?id=240730

She's an amazing little girl- with a brave older sister, and amazing parents.

After another year completed at BYU... I am back at home.

It was a pretty excellent year- I met my future husband,

did well in classes, got into the PR program, tutored some great kids,

played some good lacrosse
and somehow survived the stress.

I start my summer job at Salt Lake Country Club on Monday- working with the Horticulturist. I'm pretty excited...

and the wedding plans are coming along...
since Paul's already seen it, I might as well post the picture of....
THE DRESS!!
by Eternity Bridal
(note: I tried it on... it is modest, for some reason the sleeves look too small and the neckline too low in this picture. But I promise, it fits like a charm!)


right now we're on the hunt for bridesmaid dresses (I think I'll put my sisters in brown- and the little girls will be in green)
3 months from tomorrow... yay!

O your dress is so beautiful! I'm so happy for you! Is wedding planning just so much fun? Or is it really hard like everyone says? I'll be home in a month and I really want to do something fun with you and like really really talk about life and everything- real things not just school and stuff. If you have time...miss ya. See you in a few weeks!

IT was too cool to see you at the zoo. I wish I could have chatted for a bit but the kids were about to lose it completely. That dress is GORGEOUS!!!! Good luck!

Hey thanks for commenting on my RM post. That's one that I really like understanding people's views on. It's an interesting and difficult adjustment but I totally agree with you. Hearing about someone's mission can be so uplifting and wonderful and you really can learn so much from it. I actually wonder sometimes if the reason that some of them struggle is BECAUSE people say they will...like a reverse psychology-ish kind of thing. Any way thanks for commenting. It's amazing what they get to do for the Lord no matter what happens when they get home. Love ya Chris!
