Our life

Michael and I are now living in our own apartment. It's been really great to have our own place. Every single night feels like a date, we spend tons of time together, and I'm loving the fact that neither of us ever have to leave the state where the other is, I'll never take advantage time we get to spend together ever. I think our whole dating/engagement experience taught me that.

School starts on Monday for us and we're excited to get more credits done and get a little closer to graduation :) Currently I'm teaching 21 students piano/vocal lessons and I'm LOVING it!! Michael is working at Insight and is very busy working and going to school full time.

Life is good and everything seems to be going really well for us. Yesterday we were told by the bank that the house we had put an offer on in June could be ours as long as we agreed to a certain amount. We agreed and now we'll probably be moving in about 5-6 weeks. We're very excited that we're finally getting into a house. We've looked at lots of houses and put offers on quite a few also. None really seemed to work out, but we're very, very excited that this one is. This one was always our favorite. Everything seems to work out for a reason and we're really grateful for that.

Our Wedding




May 22nd we got married :) We got married at 10:30 am in the Mesa, AZ temple. Usually in Arizona it is very hot at the end of May but lucky for us it stayed in the low 80's, high 70's and was a little overcast. It ended up being a perfect day for a wedding.

The day turned out perfectl
y. After we got married we had a luncheon at the church. Andrea decorated it adorably and it looked awesome. The food was also so delicious. Kim and other people of Michael's family made lasagna and salad and breadsticks and it was so delicious.

I thought it was so great how many people came to support us that day. Four of my roommates from BYU came down as my bridesmaids. One flew from Seattle and the other 3 drove from Sandy, UT (near Salt Lake). They left early the day before to try to get to Mesa by the early evening. They ended up having really bad car trouble, they destroyed a tire and hubcap by hitting a huge rock. So they didn't end up getting to Arizona till 1 am. But they did get there and I was so grateful to have them there with me.

The reception ended up being so beautiful. The Wrigh
t House where we held it did a great set up job and it ended up turning out so beautiful.
