Im Getting Married!

Jordan finally popped the question! So heres the story... Last Tuesday he kidnapped me and drove me from Thatcher Scratcher all the way to Gilbert. Of course, leaving me in confusion the whole way there! He took me to the riparian in Gilbert. Its a pretty camping spot with ponds and piknic areas, right in the middle of town. His mom and sister had set up a dinner table for us. Roses, candle light, and music. We ate dinner as the sun was setting and danced to a few songs too. I know, I know, soo cute! And then with sweating palms and trembling knees he popped the question! Ok ok so he wasnt too nervous about it and I pretty much knew what was going on the whole drive up there, in fact I woke up that morning with a feeling that it was finally going to happen. But nonetheless it was very sweet and romantic! I loved every part of it! Especially my ring!!

Now I get to stress and worry over wedding plans! YAY! I cant wait to move in with AMY! And really get my plans rolling. So mark your calendars everyone for JUNE 18, 1030 am. At the Mesa Temple! The reception will be that night, not sure the exact time on that yet. Heres some pics of the Magical Night:)



Before our delicious dinner of lasagna and bread sticks and of course the wine! ;)






Still not engaged yet...









annnnnnnnddddddd.......................BAM! Engaged!!
We are so happy and excited! Its crazy cus even tho we've been talking about getting engage for the last few months, as soon as we finally did, everything changed so much. I guess now that its official, we have to look at our relationship in a different perspective and really learn how to work together! Its fun learning and growing with him!

TwentyTen

Wow my life has changed so much since the Summer is Donzo post!! Haha Just kidding it really hasn't. Last semester went by really fast but kind of slow at the same time. I started out jobless, living with a girl from Africa who would bring her pimp daddy over at all hours of the night, which oddly was pretty creepy for me. So within about a week of moving in with her I HAD to get out so, me and the girl I shared a room with and a girl I lived with the semester before, moved into a little house from the 1940s and payed way too much to live there. This is Jessica and Missy. These were my roommates for part of the semester.
But not to worry, by the end of the semester i was out of that house and into another one just down the street and am now living in a 4 bedroom house with 8 girls!! Yay! Moving into 3 different places in one semester isnt hectic at all! In the mix of all of that I got a work study job at a place called Child & Family Resources, where I basically do nothing and get paid...not that I get paid alot but its better than nothing and Im really grateful that I even have it! Its almost impossible to find a job here. Everyone is looking but I haven't heard of anyone actually finding one. I also got a boyfriend! Something else everyone is looking for but noone can find! haha Well maybe they can find one but not one as great as mine:) hahh! Its been really fun getting to know him. He lives with one of my old friends from the semester before and thats how I met him. We became good friends fast. Me and my roommate Missy and him would hangout all the time. His name is Jordan, btw. After about a month of hanging out he told me he liked me and it took me a while to finally tell him that I liked him too. And the rest is history! haha So this semester should be an interesting one too. Living with 8 girls will be an adventure, theres bound to be lots of girl drama. I can feel a little tension rising already. At least the rent is cheaper tho!
Jackie, Danni, Missy and I.
These are my roommates from last spring semester, and now we get to live with eachother one more time. :) I think we're at Laguna Beach here. One Friday at midnight we decided just to go to Cali for the weekend, we drove all night and just hung out at the beach for a couple days. This is Missy, Jordan and I at the Provo temple when we went on our conference trip. Which was an awesome trip. It was my first time going so it was exciting!Me&Jordan.
I am excited to start this year, it should be an interesting one to say the least!

SuMmEr Is DoNzO

Its about time I head back to Thatcher, Ive searched for a million excuses to not go back, but in the end its where I gotta be. Im excited for it though! Im living with random girls that I dont know, all of my close friends from this past year have gone their separate ways or are now married, and I have a feeling its gonna be a pain in the but to find a job. But all these are actually really good things and Im perfectly fine with it! I really need to consintrate more in my classes, do my homework, and be more spiritually intuned. Im at a loss of what I want to do in my life, what my goals are and the things I want to accomplish, how to accomplish them. I need to clear my head and figure out what the heck Im doing.

Its been a somewhat exciting summer. Ive made a few trips down to the valley. I would usually stay with Candice, this is when we floated down the Salt River, which really isnt as great as I had expected it to be. Its kinda boring and the river is REALLY dirty, but i guess it doesnt matter if your with fun people. I love going to the valley and just laying out all day and then going to the mall and dinner! Those days are the best. One night, me and a few good freinds from high school got together in Mesa and got these big peices of cardboard and slid down this huge cement hill thing. It was pretty fun and reminded me of our good times in hs! This is a pic of me and the girls at the top of the hill.

Sexy Kalie and I, when I went up to Snowflake for an exciting weekend!

All the Robles sisters! at Brandon's wedding.

One things for sure...we KNOW how to get down on the dance floor! It was so much fun hanging out with all the family when Toni and Craig came down. A blast!!

Shopping with Brit and Jessica.

So far So good

I am outta Thatcher for the summer! OW OW! Not that I dont miss my crazy room mates, but it is sooo nice to finally be close to home! Im livin it up with Sarah and Steve now. You can bet they were way excited to have me, who wouldnt?? Especially Steve is! haha ok ok maybe he isnt but thats just because he hasnt had the whole dose of my amazingness yet! So I've been here for a day and I already got a job at the Sizzler! haha yeah its like a step up from the Corral, but baby steps, come on people! Ill be owning my own buffet in no time.


So to begin this glorious summer off I started off to a trip to good ol' Kingman, spent like 5 days there. Sounds boring, but it DEFINETLY wasnt! Well, maybe a little bit, but its nice to go to bed at a descent hour (although its not very nice when people wake you up at a completely undescent hour=), not have any obligations the next day, and just chilling up in the Haulipais with the fam! And to end the trip me, Sarah, and Amy took a journey down to Oatman! Its ok if your jealous :) but it actually wasnt too shabby; played with donkeys, watched Sarah cry as one chased her down the street, and talked to some straight up hicks. So I guess, all and all, it was a pretty fulfilling trip.

Me and Bearett feeding the donkey a carrot, Andrew giving his best pirate smile, and Madison taming the donkeys.


Yes, that is me in the Donk-A-Lope.

Update!!

So as you can tell this whole blogging ordeal, hasnt been working out very well so far. It must be super hard for all of you when you come on here and there are no updates ;)





ScHoOl...is not fun! I dont know how people go off to college and spend all there days just partying away. I cant even remember the last party I went to and yet I still cant focus on school. And trust me, its not a boy thats distracting me. I guess Im just a huge procrastinator..Im trying to work on that though. Dont worry Im not failing or anything, just dont like homework! Im also still working at the coral...lame I know. But there is only like a month or so left of school and then Im quiting! YAY I cant wait for that day to come!





My roomates and I have inherited a new hobby....HIKING. We've gone a few pretty intense hikes up in Mt Graham and then another one off in some Arovypa place? It was supposed to be really pretty there with creeks and flowers and what not. We were quite disappointed when we got there and there was just a bunch of dead trees and a creek filled with gosh knows what!


Heres are most of my roomates: Jackie, Me, Danni, and Missy. Absent are Jami and Holly. :)


Im contemplating on whether or not I want to come here next semester. My only other real options are Mesa community or go to CCC in Flagg....but who knows. Any advice?? Also, Im trying to decide where I want to spend my summer. Possibly Flagg, if Sarah and Steve will except me;) or there are a couple girls in the valley I could move in with. I suck at making choices like this mainly becuase I put it off till last minute. Theres that procrastination again!
