We Still Exist

We have a pile of updates that need to be added. Don't worry, blog, we haven't forgotten about you... We are just busy... New stuff coming soon. For now ... Here is a teaser:

A house, a date, and some pictures.

Yay Emily posted!!!! Time for an update on our lives.

First of all ... our house is coming along. Behold! Pictures!

Foundation laid. They just need to put the dirt back in...

They put the dirt in!!! Foundation almost done!

Another view of the awesomeness.

Now they have to just finish the foundation, put in the driveway, and then start framing! Word.

Ok, now for more coolness. 

Emily and I have set a tentative date for getting married. April 21st! Mark your calendars.

In anticipation of this date. We have a photographer now. She is pretty cool. Here is her blog:  http://valoryjeanphotography.blogspot.com/

The Story of How Bill and I Met, According to Emily

This is Emily. I apologize for my lack of posting on this freaking fantastic blog my adorable fiance has made for me. But now I am going to post.

The story of how Bill and I met, according to Emily:

We met online. I was very skeptic when I first signed up for this website. I mean, isn't this how most girls go disappearing and end up murdered. Seriously. But I did it anyway.

One day I stumbled upon this wonderful guy named Bill. I took a look at his pictures and noticed A. He was dressed up as Spock for Halloween B. He apparently loved Flight of the Conchords because he was wearing a shirt with their faces on it. C. He was super attractive. (Like super amazingly attractive) I read a little bit about him and noticed that he had listed that his favorite television show was Battlestar Galactica.

Now those of you that know me, know that I am super, super nerdy. So I decided to message him and ask, "What Battlestar Galactica do you like? The new series, or the old series?" ha ha. Well, apparently that caught his attention and we started messaging for awhile. We agreed to meet one day in front of the Apple store at the Gateway. I was super nervous. What if he didn't look anything like he did in his pictures? What if he was crazy?

But when I saw him I realized that he was the hottest guy I have ever laid eyes upon. Truth. And after our date I realized that he wasn't crazy. (I was though because I was so nervous.)

We hit it off and have been dating for almost a year. He is the greatest guy ever. It's the truth. I love him so much. I'm super lucky to have found such a awesome guy. We have a ton in common and we love spending the time we get to see each other together. I can't wait until we get to see each other everyday. We are building an awesome house in Eagle Mountain. It's going to be boss. I can't wait until it's all finished. I'm super excited to be married to my best friend. I love him.

Well I will write again soon. I promise!

Until next time.

Dreaming ...

Emily and I like to go to furniture stores and pretend we can have furniture for our new house. These are our new favorites!

This was a comfortable mattress. One of our favorites.

We liked this table. Especially because it could come in the same color as our cabinets.

Emily especially likes this table. It smells like the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland!!

Also note how cute Emily looks.

Please comment on these posts... especially on our house and furniture selections! Thanks!

Emily Exists

Emily exists. I swear. She just hasn't posted yet. But she promises me that she will. So expect a post from her... sometime.

For now though ... progress has been made on the house! Behold the picture!

We think the square un-dug portion is the garage...

Also, a movie! This is proof Emily exists ...

I know it says video 3. So in a later post videos 1 and 2 will appear :)

I vote it is Emily's turn to post some things on this blog. But she doesn't know about this blog yet. It is a surprise present for her. Loves you Emilys!!
