Far too Long

Wow, everyone. Wow.  I'm ashamed at my negligence to this dear blog of mine.  Has it really been 4 months since I've seen you?  It has, and I am deeply sorry.

On the up note, turns out lots has happened in these past months!  Mainly that I am engaged to be married :)  Evan and I dated for about 4 1/2 months then got engaged at the beginning of April.  Joy of joys, life sure is fun!  I'm pretty sure that those who actually read my blog knew about this the week it happened - so thanks for your congratulations!  We are getting married on July 22nd in the Mt. Timpanogous Temple.  Can't wait!  I am super, duper excited!  Evan is wonderful - and if you ask me about it, we're a match made in heaven! (Cue the sappy music).  But, seriously guys, waiting for the right man was the wisest move I've ever made.  He makes my heart happy and that's all I can ask for.

At the moment, I am getting ready to go run me a 5k in a bit.  I'm trying to get back on the running band wagon and this is my attempt in doing so.  Aka: pay money so I feel obligated to go running in the morning!  It's a beautiful thing.  In other life news, I am pretty busy with work as well as the wedding planning!  I feel like we already have a good majority planned, which is really nice.  Bless my momma dear for that one :)  I have a dress, I have my cake/decorations/flowers/catering taken care of, we have a place for our reception and other little details planned.  Today we are taking our engagements - bless this beautiful morning!  Lets just hope it stays.  I don't want to get rained out of pictures again! (This is our second attempt - we got rained out last Saturday :(  )

Well - I know this wasn't the most detailed post in the world - but how about I leave you with some pictures?  That always helps, right?  Right. In no particular order...

The handsome fiance and me

Our Bean Museum date

I could not for the life of me get a good picture of the actual ring, but here it is from the website :)  Love.

Ready to go to his ward's Valentine's dance
