oh ya, i have a blog..

whoops! sorry its been WAY TOO LONG! but a lot has been going on! such as...


oh ya i got engaged last sunday! {what?} believe me i am still in a state of "IS THIS REAL LIFE?" doesn't feel real to me thats for sure! quick story of how zac and i met. {its not very nice or cute}

he was dating my best friend at the time. and he was a jerk. he was using her, playing her however you want to put it! he wasn't being a good guy or treating her how she deserved to be treated. i was crushing on one of zac's friends {i had already dated most of them} once my friend introduced me to zac i decided "he's cute and really nice but i still dont like him for my friend and i'd NEVER go for him. not my type." but me and zac kept winding up together in the same group of friends {which made my friend think that i was trying to hook up with him}soon enought the guy i liked moved on....and all my girlfriends thought i had betrayed girl code and i was kicked out of the clan. i had nobody. seriously nobody. except zac {who was caught up in the middle of the drama} he actually stuck around. he said he saw both sides and agreed with me. i thought great the LAST thing i need is YOU. but desperate for human contact i hung out with him. im not going to lie...at first it was just for something to do. someone to talk with and go places with. i was so hurt from the losses i had just suffered and i was numb. numb to feelings for anyone, numb to what zac and i even did or talked about. but one day i just was fine. i decided to let it go and be happy. and i was really impressed by zac i had been an awful and probably boring "friend" to him but he still stuck around. then we started having fun! he is really genuine and patient, nothing gets under his skin, nothing ruffles his feathers or bugs him he is so laid back {i, the opposite} in fact we are COMPLETE OPPOSITES! on everything his favorite color is black mine is pink i like R&B, soul, hip hop, rap he likes metal. i hate salad he loves salad. i say down he says up. i think the only things we agree on are country music and mexican food. but hey, we have made it work! after being with him i realized how different he was from all the past guys i had dated. i never pictured myself with someone like him im not going to lie. but i have never been happier. honestly i have never been so taken care of and loved how could i not love the guy!? so here we are about a year of dating later and we are getting married in 8 weeks! everyone is freaking out that it is so soon but you guys...i have had a wedding planned for YEARS now! {thanks to pinterest and my desire to be an event planner} so when we decided to get married i had the wedding planned in TWO DAYS! i bought my dress before he proposed! {i was ready} september 14 is the big day!honestly the hardest part has been bridesmaids dresses.
so now i find myself living the "utah cliche" married at 19 RIGHT OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL. i swore i would never be this girl but...when you know, you know, you know?
its so weird how different my life is going to be im not going to lie. its weird. im going to LIVE with a guy {bleh..jk} and im going to have to cook...my idea of a good meal is a pb&j with apples...or mac and cheese. you can laugh but im not kidding. sorry zac. i have a home to furnish and a full time job to attend. there is no more homework or hanging out with my group of friends everyday in a basement watching the guys play NHL. its weird. it is SO weird. but i finally feel like i am going SOMEWHERE! for so long i was just spinning and spinning going no where. just working to do something with my life. but now i have something to work towards, im moving somewhere and its exciting! im excited to forever be with the one person who has actually stuck with me through the ups and downs. its insane! it really is so crazy to me! in fact i laugh when im meeting with the catering company or at the bridal store cause i just cant even take myself seriously. it feels like the best dream ever! and i just cant wrap my head around it! 

other than the wedding planning which takes up most of my time...the best trip EVER is next week. WYOMING!!! weird right? most people like to vacation on the coast of somewhere hot. but my family like to vacation in the dirt...by a river...for a week pretty much eating what we kill. i used to HATE this trip cause it always took me away from my "friends" but each year with out fail it has been the best thing for me! and this year i am just purely excited! and zac is coming with so of course it will be even better! 4 wheeling, river rafting, horse back riding, hiking, fishing...the best food EVER! my dad turns into quite the chef when we go camping. when were home his idea of a meal is cereal. when were camping omlets, peach cobbler, steak you name it! its amazing! everything tastes better when your camping...maybe its because your just so starving and desperate for food...or maybe its something in the water? whatever it is i love it. Wyoming is the perfect vacation spot, my dad has been going there for...pfff 25+ years i want to say? it is his second home. in fact i think most people know my dad as Sasquatch. and i know wyoming as my second home. we camp right off the greys river by alpine wyoming and its just heavenly! the scenery there is like something out of a book! and the fresh air and the hot sun and cool  breeze is a dream! maybe i feel this way because my whole life our vacations have been camping. but im ok with that...well i am now anyway.

life is good! i'll update when i can(:
