Mexico



Adam and I went on our first date, we went to Iceberg and shared a mint chocolate shake, watched The Knowing at his house, and hiked around the Dixie rock. The next morning, after hanging out until 4 a.m. I started packing to leave for Mexico with my mom. I was so tired, and slept the whole time on the airplane. My mom and I flew to Dallas, Texas first. We stayed at the fanciest hotel called the Westin. My Aunt Sharee met us at the airport and took us to the hotel. We had fun watching tv, exploring the room, and eating cheesecake at 2 a.m. Our room was beautiful, and the bed was heavenly. Our flight got delayed and we were even upgraded to the executive suite. We had to bathrooms, a huge tube, and a seperate living room. After a good night's sleep we were off to Mexico. We stood in line at custom's for what seemed like days! After a few hours, we finally stepped out of the basement of the airport and into the warm sunshine. It was beautiful there. We went zip-lining through the trees, rock climbling, hung out by the pool, went running on the beach, got massages at the spa, and went snorkeling. While snorkeling we saw a barracuda, tons of fish, and two sting rays! I almost stepped on a string ray, I ran quickly to the beach took off my snorkel gear and was not going back in the water. I decided to leave those stupid flipper things on the beach and went back in with just my mask.


I still can't believe that I was there. It was so peaceful, I can't wait to go back! Three days into the trip I started to miss Adam, I called him one night just to say hi. It was so easy to talk to him and just tell him about all the adventures I was having here. He asked if I would call him again tomorrow and I got butterflies. I couldn't wait to see him again. He asked if I would be his girlfriend when I got home. I said yes, and tried to contain my excitement.

I have to thank my mom for bringing me along on this trip! It was so much fun, and I'm glad I got to spend so much time bonding with my mom. I should also thank my dad for not wanting to EVER go to Mexico, or anywhere tropical for that matter, because I get to go to Mexico in his place.

I'm blogging. again. It's probably because I'm sick in bed and have nothing else to entertain me. This may not last long. On June 4, 2010 I'm getting married, and everyone keeps telling me that I better document this time in my life. Although I write in my journal frequently, this kinda sounds fun.

His name is Adam Herpel. He's cute, funny, loving, sweet, romantic, caring, kind, generous, smart and so many more things! We met on July 24, 2009. My mom had bought me tickets to the Secondhand Serenade concert. I asked Krista to come with me, I didn't even know if I wanted to go. Krista knew Adam so we were hanging out with him and his friend, Dan. Adam won tickets to the concert, his date ditched him, he almost didn't go either. Everyone kept telling him he should get my phone number, he finally did. He called me about a week later and we went on our first date. It wasn't very long until things were getting serious.

We started going to church together and my house, and want to get married in the temple. This picture is from our first time going to church together.

Aunt McQueena

My sister is pregnant!! I'm so excited for her, and I can't believe it! I'm going to be an aunt. Aunt McQueena. I'm so proud of my sister and I think she will be such a good mommy. She's already the cutest pregnant girl I know. Brin is like my best friend, and I love her. I've been so blessed to have such an awesome sister, who I admire and look up to. I miss the days when we would fight over each others clothes, or the right way to vacuum. I miss riding around in the britney mobile listening to high schooler music. I miss having my sister around everyday, even if we did spend most of the time fighting. I'll never forget when my sister tried to teach me how to drive, and we ran into the curb by Blockbuster. I will never forget the look on the little Japenese man's face when we almost hit him. I have a lot of really great memories with my sister, but her life is going to change real soon. I don't think our friendship is going to change at all though. We will just be making new kinds of memories. I'm so proud of my sister and I'm sometimes jealous of her life! She is smart, classy and beautiful. I'm really excited to be an aunt, it's going to be so fun. I can't wait to meet little Kimber.

I may look high maintenance but I'm really not. I love to play in the dirt, ride four wheelers through the mud, snowboard at Brianhead, shoot my gun and camp with family and friends. Although I enjoy getting dirty, I do love getting all dressed up in fancy clothes. I'm just a simple girl. I enjoy good laughs, bear hugs and celebrating life.

My First Blog

I'm just sitting on my bed with my mom, and we're watching the pre-Grammy show? We are also just playing blogs...
