Brandon and I were married on August 14, 2010 in the Mt. Timpanogos LDS Temple for time and all eternity :)

 Brandon and I met in September 2008 when we were in the same ward (church group) but did not get to know each other until the following spring. We started dating in May 2009, and got engaged in March of 2010. We spent most of our first summer dating either hiking or exploring the river near where we lived.

Brandon arranged for my sister to hide in some bushes and take pictures while he proposed! By the end she was thigh-high in snow and Brandon Literally had to lift her out of the snow and back on the path.

Camree was such a great sport taking all the pictures! Her response to everything was "My brother proposed to my sister!!" She was so excited for us!!

Brandon is from Southern California and spent most of his childhood reading, running around, climbing whatever he could, and breaking bones!

I lived the first half of my childhood in Alaska and the second half in Saudi Arabia. I played soccer every minute I could in Saudi Arabia and in Alaska, my childhood revolved around Alaskan salmon, or whatever else swam up to my fishing pole.

 Now Brandon has graduated from the Marriott school of Management in Information Systems Management and will be starting his first full time job working for a company in San Clemente, California. He is so excited to be headed back to his roots (he was born and raised in Southern California) and to start working.

Unfortunately, I have to be back in Provo to finish student teaching this fall. I will graduate on October 18th with a degree in both elementary education and early childhood education and head to California to figure out what I need to do to be certified to teach there!

My friend Nikki calls this my "future teacher picture"

But for now, Brandon and I are packing up and moving to Orange County in 2 weeks! BEACH, HERE WE COME!!!

My first time on a boogie board and I took out a 10 year old!
