About Me

My photo
I married my best friend two years ago and we are expecting our first little one in June. Riley is still pursuing his mechanical engineering degree and I'm working at a gym teaching fitness classes. We are so blessed and love all the insane things life has to bring.

Before the wedding

         We are still waiting on our wedding pics from the photographer..... So in the meantime I thought I'd post some of our engagements and my bridals.  Both were taken by my best friend Jenny Harward who is aaaamazing, I normally hate taking pictures but it was fun and I'm really happy with how they turned out. (I haven't figured out how to make an album yet so this is what you get.)


We went to an old factory that had burnt down, it made for a cool background.




The lighting was perfect, just before sunset.

My mother in law got this dang cute jacket for me. It matched my color perfectly and kept me warm cause it was freeezing.

Riley loves trucks (all the boys in his family do) so when I saw one I just had to take a pic with it.


Love love love my shoes!





Time For Engagements














Thanks Jenny you did an amazing job!

Growing Up...

Being a wife is not what I had planned for 2010, but when Riley came along.....plans changed; and I'm glad they did!  It's funny how things work out, when we were in high school we had one class together and only talked a little bit, on graduation night he invited my friend and I to hang out with him and his friends, and sleep on the football field (a tradition of Spanish Fork High). We said we would.... long story short they waited for us most of the night and we never showed, we had better things to do. Well he never forgot about that and has given me crap ever since. Needless to say I can't ditch him anymore. While he was on his mission we started emailing and the day after he got home, he called me and we haven't spent more than a week apart since.
It's been an interesting ride going from single "do whatever I want" to being a wife and home maker.  Anyone who knows me, can attest that I'm not much of a cook, but I am sure trying (Riley is a good sport by just eating and not complaining) Digging into my domestic side has been fun; decorating, organizing, and creating a home. I still have A LOT to learn and believe me I'm learning every day.
I enjoy reading other people's blogs so I decided to start one of my own.  I have an amazing husband who works hard and is tons of fun, we always have fun adventures and anyone who knows Riley knows there is never a dull moment, and always a good story involved... so we'll see how this goes!
