It's been a while....

Well it's official I'm the worst blogger ever! Haha I guess I just got really busy planning the wedding and time just got away from me.  Well we are finally in our new apartment in Orem, we have been married for two and a half weeks and have been loving every bit of it.  I must admit that it was a little different for both of us to not have to say goodbye at night and drive home, but thats the best part.  My favorite part is going to bed and when I get cold (which I always do when I go to bed at night) I can cuddle up to Trent for a few minutes get warm and then go to sleep. :)  Well the wedding was so great, seriously the best day of my life, and now that I think of it, it seems to be all a blur.  I had planned and planned for everything to be perfect for 3 months and then on the one day it all comes together, the Bride and Groom don't really even get to enjoy half the stuff they planned. Haha but thats the fun of it, and I was very excited to here that all our guests enjoyed the wedding.  Well since I never posted any Bridals (once again because i'm a failure)  I will post some now.  Besides I don't have the wedding pictures quite yet either, but they are coming soon. 


 

So here are some of the Bridals that took place back in May but once I get the actually wedding photos then I will post them as well.
              So as far as being a wife,  it's been a fun adventure, I clean the house, and cook dinner (which I am learning to do) and of course being there for my husband when he comes home.  Also this week has been the crazy week of sickness! First my little sister Clara got sick then I got it, then Trent, then my Mom, and then Gavin and Adam.  Everyone in our families are just getting sick.
   We went to the fireworks at Weber High on Saturday night with friends and family and we got to see a lot of our old friends!  It was so great to see everyone! Father's day weekend was a rather sad one actually, thinking it was going to be a pretty good weekend me and Trent went to my cousins house to get hair cuts when I called my mom to see if they were home.  My mom answered and gave me some really sad news,  my 14 year old dog Lady had been put down on Saturday.  She wasn't doing very good and her body finally gave out on her.  So that was really sad and sudden.  But we tried to make the best of our fathers day weekend.  In loving Tribute to our dog Lady,  you were such a great dog and a loyal friend to us all.  You will always be with us.

The Perfect Shoes and Engagement Outfits

About a week ago we went shopping for our engagement outfits and my wedding shoes...And whatever else we could find.  It was a long and exhausting, but super fun (well at least for me) shopping day!  It was Trent's FIRST real experience shopping with a bunch of girls since he doesn't have any sisters in his family.  My mom, Clara, and I played Dress up with Trent in Pac Sun and found him a very handsome outfit to wear for the pictures. I found most of my outfit at Charlotte Russe (pretty much my favorite store) and The Perfect Shoes at Forever Young Shoes.  They are so Perfect and I can't wait to wear them.  Haha I have pretty much came to the conclusion that these shoes are my wedding shoes. They will probably be in my engagement pictures, my Bridal pictures, and my Wedding day pictures! they are that Perfect! So here are the Perfect shoes!

Sorta Front View!  Oh I love them and can't wait to wear them for my Wedding!

Apartment Shopping

I know its been a while and I am slacking on my blogging. But we all know whats coming soon!  The end of school! And I blame school for all of my slacking in other areas of my life.  Well there is a lot to catch up on. Things are coming along so great first a few weeks ago I went down for two different Thursdays and we did some Apartment shopping to find the perfect place to live for the first few years.

Trent getting ready for some exhausting apartment shopping.

So the first place we went was okay.... well we just weren't feeling it.. it seemed really dumpy and just not right for us.  Then the second place we went to felt really nice but it just was a little small in the living room and the kitchen.. like super small and once again we were feeling like it was super small for the price we would be paying and pretty much you are just paying for location.  So then the third apartment which was more in Orem was pretty awesome.  When we walked inside of it we felt really good about it.  Like it wasn't too small and it had more things to offer (like its own washer and dryer hook ups, and we have a washer and dryer).  The living room could fit our love seat and our couch and the kitchen wasn't so shut off from the living room.. Well all in all it just felt right.  So we decided to wait and see.. The only problem was there were only two left in the place that we wanted.  So a week later I went back down and we still felt good about that third one we went and saw, but we went and saw one more and... nope... it didn't feel right.  So that weekend we called the place we liked and they had one more place left so we took it and we have now got the Apartment!   It will be in Orem about 10-15 minutes from BYU and UVU and will work out perfect! I can't wait to move into the apartment and start our life together!

Wedding Plans, and LOST

This weekend was great! and they go by way too fast.  But we now have got most of our planning done.  We have the reception center booked, the temple booked, catering booked, got my dress, we are meeting with the cake people next Saturday and they booked June 2nd for us, the flowers are booked, and this week we got the photographer booked.  So wow that wasn't really too bad booking everything.  Got it done in about two weeks.  Well Trent's cousin-in-law Tony Murray will be taking our pictures he is a really awesome guy, and Jenna (Trent's cousin who Tony is married to) is way fun she is great! I look forward to hanging out with them more.  So this weekend was a "LOST" weekend, I started watching Lost before school started last summer, but then i stopped for a while because school and my life just got crazy.  So I started watching again and Trent has been watching with me this whole weekend.  It is the craziest show ever! I can't predict anything that happens, and its super intense.  We also went to Grandma and Grandpa Burke's 50th Anniversary Luncheon.  That was very fun it is always to good to see the Burkes they are a lot of fun to be around.  And on Saturday night we spent the night up at my house with my parent's :) I love spending time with my parents and they always give me and Trent great advice on things and they are just fun.  Oh and one last thing i forgot to mention we went down and saw my cousin Sara this weekend to see the new baby Allison.  I wish we could have stayed longer and spent more time down there. The best part was seeing Trent hold the baby :) it made me so excited! he is going to be the best father! he is just perfect for me! and I know that he will be perfect for our children too.   So last night most of what we did consisted of watching Lost and watching more Lost.  It was such a fun weekend and  I can't wait for next weekend now.

Motion City Soundtrack

So I was just thinking about me and Trent's first date and I remembered the first music that we had in common which was something that was the first thing we had in common and thought it would be fun to share this.  So I remember being in the car driving to the DI and then later the craft store and listening to Motion City Soundtrack the whole time.  We both knew like majority of the lyrics to each song and it was so awesome! So when the song Capital H came on there was always this fast part of the song that I could never sing it's the part that goes, "the powers of an evil doctor rocket science monster, who's ability is to destroy the entire universe." and Trent being the amazing man he is, totally nailed that part perfectly.  It was so Hot! haha so here is the song, that totally made me dig Trent that much more. haha ;)

And just for fun here is another great song from them that we both loved to sing together.

Wedding Dress Shopping!

So yesterday I got to go wedding dress shopping! :) What started out to be one appointment to just try on dresses and see what I liked turned into actually getting the dress! So My mom, My cousin Sara, my little sister, and my future mother-in-law Claudeen all came with me to go and look at dresses yesterday! We started out at, "The Gallery" in Roy. They had really beautiful dresses but they were all more pricey then I really wanted to spend, I really didn't want to spend a lot on the dress because I would rather get nicer things for our engagements and accessories that I can wear again in my life.  So after we were done there we went to "Romance Bridal" and there I swear I tried on about 8 dresses and then the top 3 I wanted to try on again! I had such a great time and I got the perfect dress for the price range I wanted! :) I just am so excited! Sorry i couldn't get any pictures though because the places I went didn't want any photos taken of the dresses! but I promise you will see the dress when I get my bridals done!

The Official Date!

Okay so this last Tuesday we were able to get our official date! Trent called the temple that morning because I had class and asked for June 2nd.  It was sorta funny because when I called him after he told me that they would be sending both of us a letter in the mail telling us everything we needed to know before the day, and I thought to myself. um....does he even really know my address? We know where each other lives but we have never really remembered the addresses.  So before I could even ask he told me that lucky enough my brother was on his instant message account so Trent was able to instant message him the address as he was on the phone.  So June 2nd is our official date! So everyone mark it in your calendars! :)
