BREAKING NEWS!!!

            To start off with I am Soo excited to write this blog... I've been wanting to write it for weeks now but couldn't.
                            As you all know Henry is in the Masters of Accounting at BYU, (if you didn't well now you do. :) ) This year has been hard for him, but good. Ever since Henry and I started dating he's always been way excited about his dream to be an accountant and work for a big four firm. In between the First and Second Year of the MAcc they have the opportunity to do an internship. Mind you it is extremely competitive with the big four firms. Henry had to interview here on campus, and then if he got a call back, they would fly him out for a second interview. Over this period of time I was a complete wreak. I had anxiety to the max and would stress all the time.. this is his dream and the beginning of starting our lives and his career. how could you not stress. Well he was called and emailed by two out of the three he interviewed for for fly outs. (2nd interview) Now that was a hard process as well. Since we've been married I haven't had a night alone away from him. He flew out, and had his second Interview and after the two interviews we just had to wait to hear if he got an offer. ( not very long) it was about a week after the first one and a couple days after the second one.. But his hard work and very long hours of studying has Paid off.  out of both of the second interviews he got both of them!!! As of Monday he accepted and offer.. the reason why I am excited to write this is because... wait for it... the internship he will be doing for a couple months IS IN  NEW YORK!!!!!!! I am so proud of him! this has been part of his dream as well, has been to work in New York. and when we went there on our honeymoon that just confirmed it more. The company he is working for is called KPMG.  Out of the two he interviewed for this is the one I was hoping he would accept. I am so excited to Move to New York for many reasons but the main two are
                   1. My brother and sister n law have recently moved from Hawaii to Connecticut. (brother will be there in Jan) I am excited cause I can go visit them since I haven't seen them in 3 years.. plus they will be able to meet Henry.
                    2. I am excited to see more of New York and hopefully in the future move there, so while I'm there I'm going to be looking at schools to finish up my dental hygiene.

I am so very happy that the lord has not only answered my prayers with stressing but also Henry's and that Henry's dream is coming true!

* also since I didn't write a post about our honeymoon.. here are some pictures of us in New York

The Beginning

Be prepared.. it's a long one folks. 

JUNE 8, 2011
This is the day that I met (officially) the man of my dreams. ( and yes he WAS the man of my dreams at that point). To give you a back ground of the story, Henry Miles came home from his mission April 8,2011. He gave his home coming talk that Sunday, and that's when I knew. I spent my time "stalking" him.. trying to talk to him, drooling over his adorableness, trying to get him to notice me... I even talked to him and he was looking at me and then looked away.. it was like I was invisible.. ( he doesn't remember this). So I thought I would give up..for a while. WELL on June, 8th we had a singles ward activity up Hobble Creek canyon. I saw my friend talking to him and when she came up to say hi I let her know I had a crush on him. well she invited me over to talk and that was the beginning.. 
this is shortly after we started dating.

JUNE 22,2011
So after we met (Officially) Henry and I hung out.. a lot. Any chance I could I would ask if he wanted to come along to an activity or hang out.. It was a fun time. On June 22, 2011 I was house sitting for a friend and some of my girlfriends came up and we went out and had dinner, and then after that Henry came up to Lehi and hung out with me for a bit. We just sat and talked, getting to know each other. I just remember sitting there thinking " I really like this guy" but thinking that he didn't like me back. Well when we were saying our good byes that's when he showed me he liked me.... :) YUP, you guessed it.. he kissed me.. I just remember going inside and feeling Like i was in a dream.. I called my mom and pretty much screamed into the phone.. HE KISSED ME HE KISSED ME.. tehehe she was confused at what happened until  I told her the Story. Shortly after that we became official. (July 4th)

APRIL 4, 2013
The day he asked me to MARRY HIM!! Henry and I dated for 2 years ( a week after we got married). I knew that after three months I wanted to marry him.. for him, it took a little longer.. but man did I learn patience. I didn't want to let this guy go, so I waited and waited until he was ready. On April 4th. I had class that night and I ended up leaving early cause my grandparents were coming into town and wanted to go out to dinner with my cousin, her husband, Henry and I. Well we had been talking about getting married and engaged and went ring shopping all of those good things. I kept bugging him, wondering when it was going to happen. So that night I left class early and we headed to Red Robin. When we were standing there waiting for my grandparents and cousin, He proceeded to tell me things about him proposing.. like how things that lead up to it were important, and how I had a loner ring ( we got ours custom made and it wasn't done) and to not be disappointed.. so on so forth.. I was sitting there wondering why he was telling me all this.. He also wanted to go play a new video game that he got after dinner.. so I agreed. So we ate, had a good time, said our goodbyes and headed down to Springville  to his parents house. I sat there and watched him play his video game( mostly played on my phone while he did) and around 10 pm I let him know it was getting late.. when we were getting ready to go he asked if I wanted to go swing ( our spot) I said sure it's a nice night, I didn't have work the next day. We proceeded to go up stairs and he said I have to go to the bathroom..( go grab the ring) well we went to turn on the back porch light and it wouldn't turn on.. it was pitch black. so he lead me to the swing and we sat there and talked for a bit... we ended up talking about how we first started dating and how he was nervous to talk to my dad.. Well, he got up and was like "I'm going to shut the back gate so Gunner ( his dog) doesn't get out" I looked and since it was super dark couldn't really tell, but it didn't look like the back gate was open.. I hear a click and all of a sudden the whole back yard lights up with white Christmas lights.. he had wrapped every tree in his back yard.. stupid me was like "this is nice" and proceeded to move over so he can  sit down.. well when he grabbed my hand to have me stand up, that's when it clicked.. I started bawling. I kept saying "Are you joking, I feel like your joking" and then he got down on one knee and pulled out the ring (the loaner one) that's when I started crying harder and of Course I said YES! we stood there and hugged and kissed and I couldn't believe it I was going to Marry the man of my dreams!

The START

Thinking about blogging Scares me. I would read all of your blogs and think, I want to do that,but I never do. I put it off and put it off and think "OK I'm going to start today."but I never do.

Here's the low down.. I don't think of myself as a creative writer... I know, I know, you don't have to be to have a blog, but I feel like whenever I read all your guy's blogs there so creative and cute.Plus for me writing has been scary. I always think one thing and when I write it it comes out completely different and I feel like I am making NO sense at all. But you know what, that is all going to Change! I think blogging is a good way to keep family and friends updated on whats going on in our lives,and why not have fun doing it. So HERE it goes.. 

Hope you enjoy reading our blog!
