Our different "homes" since being married...

        The first place we lived right after we were married was in Brent's Sister's In-law's casita above their garage and barn. (I hope you understood the relationship hahaha). We had chickens and horses wake us up every morning with their lovely noises. It was for sure an experience! It was nice and roomy for newlyweds with AC and TV. But we didn't have hot water or some electricity some of those days the first month! It kinda reminded me of Texas because the nice barn smells.                            

                                      

After this "barn" house we lived in the first month, we were able to move into one of my grandma's friend's house who was serving her mission in Nauvoo. I must say, it is definitely the cutest house I had ever been in! She decorated it so cute and modern, like a comfy homey home :) We were in love and never wanted to leave! We lived in this house for about 3 months and enjoyed every minute of it! The kitchen was incredible! So of course I just had to cook, cook, cook! And we actually had real grass, so Brent got to do his many duties and mow :) It was a good location just down the street from my grandma's house I had been living in the past year so it was convenient to move some of my stuff and be close to family. Sterling ans Kirstie and Katy lived right down the street too, so it was fun! We had a couple get together s with friends here and loved going to the hot tub! We were beyond blessed!

Just a month ago, we finally moved into our final house that we will be living in the next couple years while we finish school. It is right across the street from my grandma's house and next door to Sterling and Kirsties! So another move just down the street! We even had some neighbors say they would petition to change our street to Elliott Street since we're all living here! My brother Steven & Abish live with us in this 7 bedroom house so it's fun! I haven't taken that many pics of our new place yet, but I will post some more soon! It's nice to finally have all our things in one house :)

Work, work all day long

Everyone always asks me "How's married life??" and I always say "busy, busy, busy!" Since Brent and I both work a lot, plus school now. Don't get me wrong.... We sure have fun outdoors (as ya'll can tell on facebook or instagram) or even cooking in our cute house we get to live in :) But work does call! We both enjoy our jobs so that is good!

I recently got a new job at Plumb Dental here in St. George working as a Hygienist Assistant now so I can get a better feel with how Dental Hygiene School will be :) Hopefully I will start Hygiene School next year here at Dixie. I still get to have fun working in different areas of the office, like with the Dentist as well. I must say I have the funnest, sweetest, prettiest ladies I get to work with all day. The downside is I usually work mornings to afternoons, and Brent will work afternoon to late in the night.

Brent works in Marketing at a Vacation Ownership company called Worldmark by Whyndam. He talks to lots of people every day and tells them all the fun things they can do in St. George while they are staying there and convinces them to go to a meeting while they are here to learn more about their ownership in the company and try to get them to buy more points. His job treats him really well (except for the grumpy/rude people). But usually he has some fun stories about all the different people from all over the world. I bring him dinner almost every night so we can spend some time together during our busy schedules :) It's nice because the drive home I always get to see the most beautiful sunset.

Isn't he so good lookin'? ;)

The most wonderful day of our lives so far

A Fairytale Come True

(Well.... even better than any fairytale out there!)

My wonderful girlfriends from Texas (Chantel & Brittney) threw me a bridal shower in Provo!! It was a blast! We had the cutest appetizers while we all met, then went to Texas Road House, my favorite restaurant! If you don't already know, I'm a steak lover!! Then we played some "fun" games and had the yummiest desserts while I opened my special presents, it was a perfect bachlorette party :)

(In the mean time, Brent was with his guys back in St. George hittin golf clubs and eatin some good food!)  

The night before the wedding we had a family BBQ with our close family and all the girls helped me put together all the flowers for the wedding, it worked out perfect! 

My sister-in-law Kirstie's sister was so nice to do my hair! She did the most amazing hair style for me. I have never liked my hair before when I've gotten it done, but I was so lucky to have the best hair stylist do it :) She did it up and curly so after the temple I could let my long hair down for the reception!

It was the prettiest day we could have ever asked for for our wedding in Salt Lake City at my dream temple, our prayers were for sure answered!! My parents and grandparents were married in this same temple also. It is beyond beautiful inside and out! 

The wedding ceremony was the most beautiful one anyone had been to. It was very sweet and we loved all our family & friends who could come and share this special special day with us!

All of our immediate family (mom, dad, brothers, sisters, spouses, nephews and nieces) made it. I don't think I could ever express the happiness of being together and knowing this is for eternity! 

Heather Janis was our photographer and she did the best job! We were so grateful she could take our pics!

I couldn't get that grin off my face for nothing! Nothing could ruin that day :) it was perfect! Being by his side through it all!

My Disney friends all drove from Rexburg to share the love! Oh how I've missed them!!

(notice the "Disney Point" ;))

Josie flew all the way from Texas for her big sisters wedding!! She's my favorite :)

it wouldn't be complete without some Texas love <3 

(thanks Jovanna!!)

All of Brent's wonderful family :) One day we'll add a few more little kids to the pic ;)

All of Crystal's loving family, they all flew in from Texas, Las Vegas, Boston...

Our amazing best friends!! So grateful for all their help and support :)

Bromance at it's finest ;)

Love these girls!!!

Couldn't resist :)

Look who is going to be the new Cover Picture for CHINA'S wedding magazines!

(that is where I got my dress from online for $140..shhh ;))

BRAZIL!!! that's where Brent served his mission in case you didn't know :)

Our rings :) He picked out the perfect ring!! all by himself :)

I absolutely love dancing with this man, he is so fun and whispers cute things in my ear that noone else will ever know ;) Our first dance we danced to "You're My Favorite Book". We're special :)

I've always had the biggest love for dancing! All thanks to my dad :) Since before I could walk, he would hold and dance around with me. The waltz is our specialty, and it was so fun dancing all around that dance floor with him, I'll always be his favorite dance partner.

The decorations came together so nicely for being put up in 5 minutes with the help from everyone! There was bad traffic, so the truck with the trailer full of decorations showed up late! But didn't ruin our night, it was beyond gorgeous still!! 

The yummiest food!! Mint brownies, grasshopper cake balls, raspberry eclairs :) :), and white chocolate strawberries. The recipe for a delightfully delicious dessert bar!

There was no roof on the castle, it was open to the pretty night sky :)

Our wedding cake was devils food/oreo and white chocolate/strawberry. YUM!!

I couldn't help myself! I put the cake so nicely in his mouth to bite... then.... I pulled it out right before he bit down and shoved it all over his face! I really did it! It was hilarious! But he did get me back...

Our beautiful Castle :) My whole life I've been called Princess, so it seemed very fitting and was beyond beautiful! It was the perfect place for us to celebrate :)

We so high ;)

Best dancers of the night go to these boys right here!!! Our nephews danced "Gangnam Style" to everything! 

The cha-cha slide will never get old!! 

Our reception was just a blast! We took the advice and didn't have a boreing Line... Everyone came and went as they wished and we danced/ wandered around and chatted/met everyone who came. I never even got tired! But we were definitely excited to leave :) and not help clean up for once. lol

We got to ride away in my BMW :) I told my sister-in-laws they could decorate the outside and the brothers could decorate the inside (since they like to go a little crazy). So we rode away in smile. We couldn't be more grateful for our amazing friends who stayed and help our families clean up! 

And we lived happily ever after..... FOR REAL! 

We took off for Seattle the next day to have a nice, 7 day get-a-way to Brent's home city! 

Houston- we "don't" have a problem

So they planned to go somewhere fun for our spring break trip, and decided Texas would be the perfect place so He could see where his little Texan got Her Texas sass from ;) Luckily before they arrived in Texas, He proposed so they ended up throwing Her a bridal shower!! It was so incredibly fun to see everyone again!!

Brent fell in love with Texas too :) They had a blast doing all Her favorite things there, but they left some more things to do later so they can come back again! They definitely LOVE LOVE LOVE all the different kinds of food there :) She'll always be the Yellow Rose of Texas, that Texas Pride will never disappear!
