It's all coming together!


It finally feels as if wedding plans are finally coming together!
I went to a bridal show on Saturday & it really was a big help.
This week I am looking through some venues & making a decision on the location and date (finally).
And, I pretty much have a dress!! Well.. I am deciding between two dresses right now and both are gorgeous!! Allure Couture has thee most amazing dresses. Ever.

And last but not least... on this upcoming superbowl Sunday the Killpacks & Kings will finally meet. I know, I know... kind of ridiculous that the parents haven't met yet but we are taking care of that detail now. Needless to say: I am SO nervous!! It is going to be one interesting event. ha ha. I just hope my family can be normal... for once :)

Disneyland!

Well seeing as I have been called of work AGAIN, I guess I have some time to blog about my Disneyland trip!

My family drove out on Sunday but McKall & I couldn't miss all of our classes so we were lucky enough to fly out Tuesday night. Flying is always an interesting experience... but I love it.
Ahh, Disneyland. Now, if you don't know this about me shame on you.. but I LOVE Disneyland. I mean LOVE. For me it never gets old or boring. I could go several times a year & be the happiest camper in the world. :)

This trip was especially fun because we went with our friends the Campbells. Who have such cute and fun kids! Ellie is my favorite little bud & was such a blast to have around. She was the bravest child EVER & wanted to ride all the rides and found It's a Small World "boring" ha ha.
Best story about Ellie though.. As most small children she is not afraid to comment on anything she sees so as the group was walking along we saw a man with a prosthetic leg who Ellie proceeded to point at and yell "It's a robot!!" SoOoO funny. [And I think thankfully the guy did not hear her or at least did not acknowledge it! ha]

We had a celebrity sighting on the trip, yes, that is in-fact Snoop Dogg riding Splash Mountain.
How funny is that?!



Disneyland & California Adventure were of course a blast! And I have to say if you get the chance to go this year you have to check out the Wonderful World of Color show at California Adventure. I am not even joking when I say it is the neatest thing I have ever seen!! It was beyond awesome.

My family & the Campbells also spent a day at Sea World & Six Flags. Sea World is so fun and Six Flags was... nice. haha. Overall though the trip was PERFECT! The only thing that could have made it better was having Mike there :) We are planning on going to Disneyland for our honeymoon & I am stoked of course! Mostly because Mike has never been. Can you believe that?! Crazy business I think.
Well that is about all. Thanks for reading!!

Wedding plan progress?


Well, not much to update wedding plan wise.
I do have to say that I love talking wedding plans with my cute guy. It is so fun!! My mom has bought a ton of bridal magazines & we are gonna go to some bridal shows. This whole engagement/wedding is starting to feel real..

If you haven't heard we are thinking May twenty-something. I think 25th or 26th. It's just deciding where to have the whole thing that is the biggest deal at the present.
BUT I will let everyone know once things have been more finalized...
because you all better be there!!!

And with that.. I am off to Disneyland :)

Engaged!!

So the good news is true...



I am gonna be a KING!!!

Here is a hand-shot of my gorgeous ring!!
I love it.

I'd never seen any other ring quite like it....









So my fun night started out at Zoo lights. We took my little brother & sister and it was a lot of fun! Freezing, but very fun :)
After lights we just headed back to my house to watch a movie, eat treats, & play games on the kinect. It was a very chill & fun night!!
We watched the countdown on TV & right after midnight Mike slipped out 'to go upstairs & fill my water bottle' but then he called me to come up. So I walk up the stairs & it was pitch black... I turned on the light to find my cute guy on one knee with my ring in hand!!! I was SHOCKED!
Honestly people we have had the ring for FOREVER so I was the most shocked that he had found the ring out of my closet!! But after overcoming my shock & crying.. I of course said YES!
I am so excited to be marrying my best friend & love of my life!! We are thinking the end of May or first of June.
It will prove interesting to find a place to do a full out wedding!! [We will have to wait to go to the temple since Mike was just baptized in Oct. :) ] but I couldn't be more ecstatic about anything!! For now I am kinda thinking Joseph Smith Memorial building... but if anyone has some ideas for a gorgeous wedding spot let me know!!

2011 is gonna ROCK!!!




I love this boy :)
