Update on our lives!

Keegan is currently going to school at Idaho State University to either become an orthodontist or an optometrist, still trying to decide that now! I am working at a dry cleaners everyday and Keegan just starting working at Pizza Hut! I will hopefully be going back to school in January to be a Dental Assistant! During the week we don't get to do much with trying to juggle school for Keegan and work, but we try to go on a date night at least one night a week, which is usually to Kiwi Loco!

YELLOWSTONE!

In the two years I have been living in Idaho I had never been to yellowstone, and I have been nagging at Keegan to take me. So, last weekend we got to go to Yellowstone with my friend Brooke and her husband Todd! I now want to go to Yellowstone like every weekend. I am so fascinated with all of the animals that I have never gotten to see before now! I really want to go back when it is warm, so hopefully we will be back when they open back up after winter!!

Summer to Present

During the first week of May Keegan and I flew to Memphis so he could meet my family. We stayed there for a few weeks and got to show him all around Memphis, let him meet all of our family and friends, took him shopping, and got to see how we eat in Memphis! At the end of our week in Memphis we flew back to Salt Lake City. Our flight landed around midnight that night. We didn't want to have to find a friends house to stay at that night, so we just decided we would go ahead and drive to Kimberly that night and stay at Keegan's parents, which is about three hours away, so hoping to get in around 3am. We ended up having some car troubles on the way home, that I mostly slept through, and the car broke down right outside Burley, Idaho. Keegan called up his dad to let him know the situation. His dad and little brother drove out to where we were, at about 4am, and towed us back to Kimberly. We got home and to bed around 5am. We were supposed to attend a track meet the next day (thursday), but it ended up being cancelled due to strong wind and was postponed to the next day, which gave us Thursday to rest.
On Saturday we Drove up to Spokane, Washington to work for the summer. When Keegan and I met he had already made the commitment to go to Spokane to work for DishOne Satellite for the summer. He asked around and I ended up getting to work for them too so we could be together over the summer. Luckily there were two other girls going up there to that I was able to live with. Keegan would have a meeting every morning between 10 and 12, he would come to my apartment for lunch, and he would have to be on the doors by 1 or 2. When we left to go sell I would go to the office and work until he was headed home, which was usually around 8 or 9! which made for very long days! Keegan and I had talked about marriage before we went to Memphis, but he kept telling me we needed to work over the summer and save up some money, and I was so impatient about him proposing. But he ended up proposing on June 8 and the wedding planning was on full force! I stayed in spokane until July 5, when I flew home to finish planning the wedding while Keegan was still in Spokane. Keegan flew into Memphis on 20 to go to Florida with my family. After that week he flew back to Spokane, packed everything up, went to Blackfoot for a family reunion, and then flew back to Memphis! On August 9 Keegan's family arrived in Memphis for the wedding. We spent the next few days getting everything ready and set up. On August 11, 2012 we were married in the Memphis Tennessee LDS Temple! It was the GREATEST day EVER!! The next week we went on our Honeymoon to Gatlinburg, TN! on August 20ish we flew into Salt Lake with my parents for our reception in Twin Falls, ID. We are now living in Pocatello, Idaho. Keegan is currently in school studying Pre-Dental and I am working and hoping to go back to school soon to be a Dental Assistant.

How we met!


Most of you know how Keegan and I met, but for those of you that don't, here it is!!

I somehow talked my parents into letting my stay in Rexburg, Idaho while I was off track in school as long as I found a job. My mom gave me about three weeks to find a job.. by the time my deadline came around, I didn't have a job, but kept begging my mom to let me stay because I didn't want to go home and I knew I would eventually find a job. I ended up finding a job as a nanny in February. I got paid about $120-$160 a week for five days a week. It wasn't much but it was enough to live off of and I wanted to stay with my friends. Close to the end of February my roommate Anna got a text from a friend asking if her and I wanted to go on a group blind date that weekend with some of his friends that were coming up from Idaho State University. We really didn't want to go, we had another party we wanted to go to that night, but figured we would go, get a free dinner out of it, mark a blind date off of our bucket list, and go to the party afterwards. Saturday night came around and I ended up going on a date with a guy named Zach and Anna ended up going on a date with Keegan. We went and had dinner at Wingers, went and played a game at a friends apartment, and then we left and headed off to our party we wanted to go to in the beginning. Sunday night I was spending the night with the kids I babysat for and I get a message on facebook from Keegan. We talked on facebook for a few minutes and then he told me he had to get offline, for some reason I gave him my number and told him to text me. We ended up texting until late that night, and all that coming week. He asked if we would like to come down to Pocatello and go to Lava Hot Springs. I had to find some friends to go with me because I wasn't ready to go by my self. Four of us from Rexburg ended up going and meeting five guys at Lava Hot Spring that weekend. Keegan ended up coming back to Rexburg with me Saturday night. We went on a date that night to the Extravadance on campus to watch my friend Laurel dance. On Sunday he went to church with my and stayed all day. From that point on we started dating. I met his parents the next weekend while we were on our way to Nyssa, Oregon with Kevin. We went to his parent house the next few weekends and I got to know them a little more. That school semester was coming to an end and my mom wanted to meet him. At the beginning of May we flew to Memphis to visit my family!

My next post I will tell our story from the beginning of summer, to getting engaged, to getting married!!
