My trip to New York!

(I look really hefty in this picture....why do I feel the need to stick my stomach out as far as I can in pictures?)

Unfortunately, I am back from New York but I had a lot of fun! The first night I was there we were both pretty tired so we just watched a movie with his roommates. The next morning (morning meaning 12:30 or 1) Mike, his friends Blake, Gary and Jorgen and I, went to the train station that took us to New York City. It only took us about and hour and a half which was less time it would've taken us to drive since he lives on Long Island. Plus we didn't have to deal with all of that traffic.

This picture is of Mike and I in the train. He is hot.



This picture is in front of the church that was really close to the twin towers but didn't get damaged at all... weird!

We went to Amityville, Long Island (Mike lives in Long Island by the way) to go see the Amityville house from the movie Amityville Horror. I got some really cute bags from a chinaman and I love them. Also we saw time square and ground zero, we went to New Jersey to have dinner with a family in the ward he was in when he lived in California, went through the holland tunnel (The tunnel that goes under the Hudson River), we saw the statue of liberty and the empire state building. We got a lot done in the few days we were there.


(Us at Applebees, please excuse the fact that I look a lot like a man in this picture... I wonder if people thought Mike was with a guy and that he liked guys...)

We also ate at Ruby Tuesday's, Applebees, and the Royal Oak Diner which was pretty good but not as good as we hoped. Anyway, I went to the airport on Monday night and said goodbye to Mike. It was so sad because I wont see him for a couple of months. I know it is probably pathetic but it is true! I miss him a lot! Enjoy all of the pictures! Oh and P.S. Jessica, Eliza and I are going to New York May 31st- June 3rd! Jealous?

Our Hobby... Sorry I am 3 days late...oops ok?

(In the above picture I am displaying my bracelet, not my ring even though both are pretty!)

So we learned how to make hemp necklaces! And bracelets and anklets... it is really fun! And we are really good. It took us only a few minutes to learn a little longer to practice and then we perfected it. We were so excited that we went to a couple stores to get more hemp yarn and beads. He went into the sporting goods/fishing section. (I figured he would go there. It is like Tim Taylor from Home Improvement going to a car show with his eyes closed.) Anyway, he started walking towards me with a tackle box in his hand. I asked why he was getting a fishing box and he said, "This isn't a tackle box, this is a hemp box!" He is so crafty.


So now we are even more awesome then before if that is possible! Enjoy the pictures!

Mike=Hotter than sin=My future husband=Hottest guy ever

Hello Everyone! You saw a picture of me and my boyfriend a couple posts back, well now he is my fiance! We took a trip down to Vegas to see my family and get him acquainted with everyone. He went to ask my dad for his blessing to ask for my hand in marriage (after taking several false alarm walks down the hall to talk to him) After over an hour of my dad "getting to know him" I sent my sister Eliza to go save him.... not that dad is mean or anything but because I KNOW Mike was so nervous and I didn't want him to be in there very much longer sweating bullets! Right when they were done I dragged Mike on a car ride in order for him to tell me every detail. He didn't tell me much so either they talked really really slow to fill that hour and a half or he was so nervous he couldn't remember the whole conversation. I am guessing option B. Anyway, after our drive we went and sat on the porch swing where he asked me to be his wife! Isn't he so hot in every way! Seriously he is though. I don't mean to sound all sappy or whatever but he is perfect in every way! I think the thing Zach likes about him the most is that he plays catch phrase. Anyway. The ring had to get sized and everything but I got it last night and it was so awesome and the prettiest ring ever. He did an awesome job picking it out! He got down on one knee and it was perfect! Then his mom and I were texting each other until a little after midnight! She is a party animal, and I like her. She is nice. My new name will be Audrey Diane Findarle. Cool huh?

I have more to write about a new hobby Mike and I have that is so awesome but I have to wait 4 hours until I get off so I can take pictures of it OK? So I will post again in a few hours. Love you BYE!
