It's all happening so fast

Holy Crap. I get married to my best friend, the love of my life, the most amazing and perfect girl in the world in just a short 3 days. This coming Saturday we will be married at 2 PM in the Salt Lake Temple. I hope that all of you got an announcement, as long as you sent me your address you got one. I cannot describe how excited I am to be married. Just about all of my friends are married, and they love it. I even have friends that are having children in the next few months. Life is happening really fast, but I am LOVING IT.

Okay, so I currently am looking for a job, I have had a few leads, but nothing has panned out. I feel like an old 49er, in the fact that everyone says "Go here! They are hiring, and you'll fit the job perfectly!" or "Go There! I will put a good word in for you!" "You'll find Gold here! or There!"... but as I dip my pan, it just comes back with rocks and dirt. no gold just yet. but do not worry! I am still looking! I'll find gold, or a job sometime soon, and if the Mayans are right, I won't even have to worry about it, haha.

Me and Kelly are doing awesome, we have our house where we will be living, all set up and ready for her to get all moved in. I have already moved in, and we have moved most of her things over. I don't know how most people do it, but it seems to be working for us (having all my things, and most of her things here that is).

Justin is still out in Cheyenne Wyoming, doing really well, but he talks like he will be transferred in the next few weeks. Which sounds about right, I was transferred just about every 5-7 Months, and that is where he is at. His letters are amazing, and if you aren't getting them weekly then you should call my mother and get added to the email list.

Kelly had the opportunity to go through the Temple on the 16th, and she loved it! I loved it! There is something awesome to be said about going to the Temple together. I am grateful for this gospel, and for the Blessings that it provides in the Temple.

Okay, I feel like this makes sense, and also I feel like it is getting long. I know there is a TON of things that I am leaving out of this, but it covers the basics. I love you all, and want you to follow me on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and Google+, Oh and Tumblr if you know what that is. I will see you either Friday night, Saturday night, or on the 7th if you are down in Idaho. Be Good! Stay Sweet!

Engagement.

Okay okay okay. So everyone has been asking how I did this little engagement. Haha. Well it was a good process. It was kind of hard, since I live across the street from Kelly, to keep it a secret. Every girl wants a surprise and a good story to tell so I had to figure this out in the few hours a day I had to myself (I work with Kelly and we hang out daily). After thinking I decided that I needed to pop the question on temple square. It is where we had our first Utah date. And we dressed up On that date. So I wanted to recreate a similar night. Then I had to talk to her mother about it. Ask for permission as they say. Her mom is the best, she was very supportive and helped me keep it a secret. So then I just had to pick up the ring and set a day to ask her. The ring came back from the sizer on Tuesday. And I was able to pick it up on my way home from work without Kelly knowing I was even up to anything. Then it came to choosing a day. I figured Saturday was as good as any other day. And I didn't want to wait any longer. The ring was burning a hole in my pocket. Haha. So I brought it up casually throughout the week. Then Saturday morning came and we had to work early. We got there and it seemed that everything was going wrong. But I just kept talking about temple square and how I wanted to go there and be all dressed up. So after work we went home and got dressed up and went to temple square. It was perfect. The gates that usually surround the temple were open, and we could walk right up to the temple and touch it and go up to the doors. It was awesome. So we wandered through some of the visitors centers and looked at the art and the statues and even watched a video or two. Then we decided to go right up to the temple. So we walked in the Gate, and started to walk around it. There was a couple there taking pictures. She in her dress. Him in his tux. Very cute. Haha so we went around to the west side. And climbed the steps to the doors, and I knelt down on one knee and asked the age old question. "Will you marry me?"... Kelly is incredible. She said yes of course, and that is the story.

Be sure to follow along as we send out announcements, and tweets, and Facebook pages asking for your addresses and telling you what things are coming.

Thanks for reading my blog.
Love you.
