What road trips are all about...

Long story short Harry and I headed to Phoenix after a nice visit with Kate in San Diego. The bug decided to over heat on the border of Mexico in el centro, California at about 12:00pm. After a trip to the local mechanic, 2 trips to the auto store, countless phone calls to Harry's Dad and a mechanic friend back home, 5 hours of Harry fixing everything he can, 3 times getting back on the road thinking the car was fixed but after about 10 miles figuring out it was not fixed and heading back to el centro, eventually the bug not even going 2 miles before way over heating, 1 aaa call, 60 mile tow, 10:30 pm finally getting to yuma,1 night in yuma, AZ, and a trip to the u-haul. We are finally back on the road to Phoenix! Where we will meet up with cousin Seth and take the bug to a VW dealership. Yay!!

Loving Fall Break

It is fall break this week and I am loving every minute. I had sleep in till 9 on my fall break to do list, I definitely checked that off the list this morning... it was heavenly. Monday night I went up to the cabin with my dad we drove to Heber and had dinner at a fun little old breakfast cafe called The Hub. On Tuesday we had a HUGE pile of chopped up cedar and pine wood dropped off. We carried it down the stairs and made pretty piles with it. I tell you what, we are ready for winter! Yesterday I went to lunch and a little shopping with my newlywed best friend Ali it's so fun to be old married ladies together :) Tonight I think Harry and I and some friends are going to the movie Social Network which is another thing i can check off of my Fall break to do list! I reallllly don't want Monday to come....

Harry Proposed!

Yes yes it finally happened... Harry popped the question last weekend on Saturday March 20th. He knew he wanted to to do it that weekend he just didn't know how, when or where... he just figured he'd play it by ear. Harry's really good at just wingin things so that's just what he did. So the story goes like this... we were headed back to Cedar city from his cousins wedding in St. George. I was driving the big King Ranch truck because of Harry's broken foot. Harry saw the exit for a scenic detour up Kolob canyon and thought this will be good. So asks if i want to go for a drive and I'm always up for a scenic drive so I said sure... so we drove all the way up looked at the pretty views and headed back down the canyon. On the way down harry said I should pull over so we can take some pics so I did. We got out of the truck I sat on the back tailgate while harry scootered around on his little scooter for his foot. He then asked me to take his pulse and boy was it HIGH! I was like yeah... your pulse is pretty high maybe it's because you were scootering around... I don't know... and Harry (while "kneeling" on the scooter) then pulled out a seashell from his pocket with a ring it and said "It's because I want to ask you to be my wife" And naturally I screamed in happiness then while flailing my hands and arms I knocked the ring and seashell right out of harry's hand (that was funny) so Harry scootered over and got the ring I said yes and he put the pretty ring on my finger! I told harry that Kolob canyon had quite the deep symbolism to it.... he thought about it for a minute and said "oh... yes... yes it does... I'm awesome." Then it even got better when I told harry that Three years ago on this day he took me out to lunch to the blue plate for helping him with math so technically that was our first date. So for not planning this and for just wingin it He did a fantastic Job. I love you Harry, I'm so excited to be your wife!

super successful ski day

Had a fabulous day skiing with my younger brother T.J. He was so much fun to ski with and helped me with my skiing skills. I have a bad habit of using the pizza/wedge to stop and turn so he helped me wth keeping my skis together and using my edeges. I had it down by my 3rd run which made for a very fun successful ski day. Thanks Teej!!!
