You've just got to ignite....the light....

Baby you're a firework.

How is it possible, that one sweet little boy, who will be ONE YEAR OLD next Sunday, can have so much personality? He truly lights up up our world. (Cue corny music)

And then there is this guy, who I made pose in front of a rose bush, is the one who makes me see fireworks. Love this guy!

Today we are still in Bear Valley Springs. We are going to try and beat the heat- (100 degrees, no A/C!) maybe swim in the kiddie pool, have a good old-fashioned cookout with Aunt Pam, Uncle Pat, Grandma, My great Aunt Dorothy, Mom, Courtney, Bobby and us. It should be fun. Afterwards we will head down into Tehachapi to watch fireworks. Last year on the 4th, We sat in our front yard and watched Stadium of Fire fireworks while Carson kicked the crap out me. Hopefully he will like them this year! We hope everyone has a wonderful holiday, full of good ole' American stuff like hot dogs, fireworks, swimming and family! We know we will!

I used to think one day, they'd tell the story of us...

Devin and I met on the internet. Go ahead, laugh. We were both coming out of awful relationships and playing the field. Devin was working in Park City at the time, and drove over to Provo after work to hang out with me and my roomies. He totally ended up kissing me that night. I thought I wouldn't ever hear from him again, but he actually responded to my text the next day! We talked back and forth all day long. The next morning he showed up at my work (45 minutes away from him!) with flowers. The office secretary said, "Oh! He is a keeper!" I wasn't totally sure. After a romantic lunch at Taco Bell, he asked me to be his girlfriend. How corny! But, I said yes of course! Things moved quickly. We ended up stuck in Park City together and had to stay the night at the Marriott due to the weather. My mom was terrified and said, "I watch CSI! Be careful!" Devin and I just stayed up late and talked. That is when he told me he was falling in love with me.He even sang a song to me. I didn't know if I should laugh or cry! Haha! I was feeling the same way. It was so fast, yet so real, and exactly how I thought it should feel! I was smitten! He kept bringing up marriage. I had recently been engaged to a loser-extrordinare, and didn't want to rush into anything. He backed off and said, "Oh yea, me niether!" A few days later we were talking and he looked at me and said, "This is ridiculous, we know we are going to get married!" The next day we went ring shopping! He proposed on January 30, 2008. I was called to the main office and was told the prinicpal wanted to see me. I was kind of nervous! I had just talked to Devin on the phone, and as far as I knew, he was at home! I was also under the impression the ring would be out getting sized for atleast another week. I was not suspicious at all. I walked into the office and saw several flowers, but thought nothing of it. The secretary told me to go around the corner. As I turn, Devin pops out of the nurses office and drops to one knee. In my shocked state, I exclaimed, "You're doing this HERE!?" We laughed, we cried, he got on with it and I said yes. We were married 5 months later, and the rest is history. Or the present. And you get to read about it!
