Finally some photo proof!

Saturday Dez's sister Jamie took us out to do our engagement photos. We banged out over 200 photos in an just one hour including travel time to and from the location.  We're so blessed to live on such a beautiful island. Despite the monsterous winds that decided to blow during our shoot) We had a great time and glad we got some good ones out of the process.  I've sent my top 20 choices out to my sister Megan who has become quite the photoshoper, who is designing our announcements.  It's aweome (and economically beneficial) to have such talented family memebers! Maybe I shouldn't say that until after I see the announcements. hahah just kidding.

A Common Question

One of the common quesitons/reactions I get once people find out I'm marrying a Hawaiian/Samoan is "He must be massive compared to you!?" Well most of you know how tall my dad is, and how big my brother Mike is...If you couldn't tell by the HI shirt and the tan, Dez is towering EVERYONE in the picture on the left standing at 6'3". I'm 5'4". I'm glad I can still wear heels around him. I can't wait till we get to CA in june so everyone can meet him!

(I just re started this blog and there are a lot of fun stories and memories in between our meeting and now so I'm going to be a little non linear with this blog and skip back and forth in time)

How Else Would You Expect Me to Pick Wedding Colors?

Rock SOLID!

He picked it out all by himself but once tax returns came in I knew it was coming. Dez wasn't very sly when he told me he had something for me, then rolled up as un announced as possible with with his duel exhaust truck .  He walked straight into my house and sat down next to me trying to play it casual with some small talk. That didn't last long. He kissed me and pulled something out of his pocket. I tried so hard not to look down at his hand even though I knew exactly what it was. Then he said "OK" took a deep breath, opend the box and said "will you marry me?". I grabbed his face and said "YES!". Then he let out a huge sigh of relief and said "I'm glad thats over with!" He told me to tell everyone that we taking a romantic walk on the beach during sunset. Two minutes later my roommate woke up from her nap 10 feet away. I flashed my rock and she gave me a confused glazed look like "what the heck is that". Then it clicked.  The whole thing was perfect. No tears, no mushy sentimental fluff, just straight to the rock. Keepin it real. Thats how it's always been and will continue to be. July 17th 2010, we're getting married in the temple!
