Bridal Shower

I have been friends with these girls for years and years and they really are the greatest! 


They threw me a beautiful bridal shower.



I got to see many close friends and family - some that I haven't seen in a long time!
 It was a wonderful afternoon!

Thanks again girls, and to all those who came!

Holbrook Trail

Lately, I have really been able to see how intricate and wonderful Heavenly Father's plan is for each of us.

As I realized that I would be living in Utah for the next bit of my future, I was initially worried about how it would all work out so quickly.  However, it has been incredible.

My roommate Cami (from Flagstaff) has spent the last 2 months in Utah too... and will be there until I get married.  And, go figure, she was roommate-less with one extra bedroom.  So guess where I have stayed...

Oh, and my cousin, Clarissa lives near BYU campus and has a spare bedroom. So guess where I have stayed...

It has been such a blessing to have family and friends IN UTAH!!  Who knew I would have so many friends and family there!?!

The other day, Cami, Jaime (another great friend from Flag who now lives in Utah) and I went on an evening hike on the Holbrook Trail.  It was so beautiful and so fun!  Who knew that these two hiking friends would be here in Utah to continue our hiking adventures!?  It has only added to how excited I am for living there!

Thanks so much to all of those who have been kind enough to let me crash at their place the past few weeks!!  Heavenly Father sure knew where I would be and put some of my favorite people there to make the move so much easier and so much more fun!

Life in Utah

I have lived here for nearly a month now.  It has been quite the adventure!!  


  • We spent the first week finding a place to live for once we are married. We did!!  What a relief! 
  • We hiked part of Rock Canyon

  • I have lived out of my car the entire time 
  • We have gone to 4 different temples
  • We hiked Y Mountain at Sunset

  • We celebrated Jared's birthday - love that man! 
  • I went to my first college football game... ever. Go Cougars! (yes, D has been visiting too)
