My New Puppy!!

So saturday after school coleman and i were on our way to sportsmans to buy his dad a birthday present and we stopped to see the puppies that were being sold
Well it turns out that i fell in love with this puppy!!!


Oh coleman fell in love with him too!! That's why we bought him!! haha but his name is Mack!! He is a full bread black lab and is the cutest thing ever!! well except for coleman. But its like having a baby. My mom has been calling herself a grandma. He is the sweetest most mellow dog ever too. But of course he likes to play with the little toys we got him. Mack is only 6 weeks old so he is a very tiny still. He's going to be a lot of work but coleman and i are ready to take it head on!!

So i finally got a semi-good pic of the house yesterday.. Cole and i decided to drive out to see if they have made any progress.. When we pulledup and saw someone's vehicle parked in front i got a little freaked out but when we went inside it was the sheetrocker. He was a little tipsy and his dog was really scary. Anywyas so yes they have started the sheetrocking.. the ceiling on the main floor was almost finished yesterday. It is so crazy how much smaller the house feels when the sheetrock is finally up. The new finishing date on the house isn't until the end of November.. Which makes me really sad cuz it might be done when im on my cruise :( but thats okay. i can't live in it yet anyways.. So anyways i will try to keep the updated pics on here as much as i can. The house is going to change a lot in the next few weeks.. IM SO EXCITED!!

Utah!

So this weekend i got to go to Utah with Coleman's family. It was so much fun. We left Idaho falls at 3 on Friday afternoon. Since we took Coleman's truck we got to watch a movie on the way down so the drive wasn't too bad.. it did rain on us but it wasn't too terrible. Hilary and Hailey met us at our hotel in Layton and spent the weekend with us too. which was a lot of fun since we don't get to see them very often. We went to Taipan Trading Friday night which i have to say thanks to Cole's family because they really only came with us there because Coleman and i wanted to go there for some new decorating ideas for the house. Saturday we woke up had breakfast and went to RC Willey. That is a pretty cool store. It's huge and there is definitely a lot to choose from. Once again the family was good sports about tagging along and didn't complain too much. Coleman and i got some really great furniture ideas from there and hopefully once the house is closer to being done we'll be able to drive down there and come back with some new things for the house. After RC Willey we all decided that we needed to go to the Layton Hills Mall but on our way there be got stuck in a really bad traffic jam. It was raining really hard and the power was out in the mall by the time we actually got there. We decided to leave and come back later but 5 minutes after we left the power came back on!! joy for us! The MAIN reason for going to Utah was so that we could go to Frightmares at Lagoon but the weather was really yucky. We went anyways it was fun but i was FREEZING the whole time it was so stinkin cold!! I was happy when someone suggested grabbing some hot chocolate at a gas station before we head back to the hotel. And then on Sunday we just drove home. it was a very nice little weekend trip. I really enjoyed getting away from school for a few days and just being able to spend time with the love of my life and my future in-laws!! i can't wait to be married!

HAPPILY ENGAGED!

So coleman proposed to me last night!! it was absolutely amazing. i wasn't expecting it at all. The past few days he had been acting so weird like he didn't even want to marry me at all anymore.. before last night i had been having an emotional breakdown!! i was so stinkin scared that he was really losing interest in me. So last night he told me about this new road up by the windmills tha he heard about and that he wanted to go check out. I didn't think anything of it and said that was fine. He picked us up some chinese food for dinner and we headed on up there. We got to this beautiful spot right at sunset.. it was so amazing. We both got out of the truck and he laid down the tail gate and we set out the food. He told me he got me a number 6 so i grabbed the box that had a 6 on the top. i opened my box of rice to pour on my plate and only a little bit came out. i looked inside the the chinese box and there was a dark brown thing in the bottom of it. I had no idea what it was. my first instinct was that it was a nast cube of ham that they left in the box so i shoved it at coleman and he just gave me a little smirk. he got it out and unwrapped it and it was a beautiful ring box!! i started freaking out and get got on one knee. by this time we were both bawling our eyes out!! And then he popped the question. Of course i said yes but he could barely hear me through the sobs. it was by far the best night of my life. My ring is gorgeous and my family is happier than ever. we set the wedding date for February 21, 2009!! i can't wait and i have lots of planning to do.. if anyone has any suggestions let me know!!
