We're Engaged

On October 24th, 2008 Mike drove down from Kuna, Idaho to ask me a very important question. Not that I knew it was coming, but if it hadn't I would have been very disappointed. He took me out to eat that night, we went to the Pineapple Grill, after which we went to the fall formal. Mike was is an amazing dancer and delt with the fact that I would sometimes kick in the leg or step on his foot. After a fun filled evening of being twirled around the dance floor we went back to my place. Mike pulled out his guitar and started the serenading. It was great but it wasn't "my song," the song he had written me for my birthday, until it was. He seemed more nervous than before though. He sang and played beautifully, and then, a surprise, he had added a verse. He sang about me being his wife, and eternal companion, he then knelt down, pulled out a ring and asked me to marry him. Sappy, cheesy, romantic, it was awesome!

The Story of "Us"

It all started March 27th, 2008, on what they call "another great day at BYU-Idaho." When the guy sitting next to me asked me for help on an economics problem. He then continued on to ask me out. He showed up a half hour late on account of almost passing out after donating plasma. I had my neighbors invite him in and ask his name, where they then came back and told me his name as I couldn't remember meeting him although we had, apparently. We had a good date, and that was the beginning of it all.
