Just a reminder...

I feel as though NOBODY comes to our new blog anymore. 
I think I've been forgotten...;)

So come on over and visit...

Letter to myself



Dear Suzie,

You are getting married in 10 days. Just a week and a half and the best thing to ever happen to you will. 
You haven't blogged much the past few months...but it's alright. You have obviously been busy building this beautiful relationship with Brad. 
It seems like things always work out in the end. I know you never understood why things didn't work out with this guy or that guy. It seemed almost like a punishment. Like everyone else was getting their shot at a family and husband but you. Your eggs were dying! ;)
But the truth is and I know you knew this ALL a long was that all those things were wrong for you. 
You always stayed happy and positive but had moments of weakness when it was just really hard.
Little did you know that on Friday the 13th a cold day in January, your life was about to change forever. You didn't know that the man of your dreams was the blind date you were going on...You didn't know that his sweet son would capture your heart as well. I remember you thinking: Another first date that will lead to a dead end. But it didn't. He was so easy for you to fall in love with. He was the man you patiently waited for.
Now, you are feeling happiness like you've never felt before. You feel complete and that is the most important thing.
You have lost a dear friend in this process (one that was bitter and probably never a friend truly) But all that doesn't matter when you are marrying the greatest guy you've ever known. 
You are so blessed to be gaining this eternal companion that will be by your side through thick and thin. He is worthy to take you to the temple and be with you forever!
Never forget how blessed you truly are!
He is a SOO handsome, and loves you dearly.
You are so blessed, lucky and there is no way you possibly could have imagined finding such a great husband and father. 

Cherish him everyday
Love always, 
ME
(Suzie)

Leap Day 2012

Do you ever wonder if something cool would happen to you on Leap Day?
This year was no exception to that and probably the best day of my life so far...

Brad and I had plans to go to dinner on Wednesday night...
I walked into his house and was greeted with pink tulips.
(In my head I thought wow how sweet)
I thanked him and gave him a quick kiss
He looked so handsome all dressed up and at the time I didn't even notice the sweet romantic music playing in the background.
I sat on his couch and started asking how his day was etc...
I could tell by the look on his face that something was different...

He started to tell me that he loved me and honestly I don't think I could remember anything else he said except for him getting on his knee pulling out a black box...and asking me to MARRY HIM!!!

I of course said YES!

I had told him that I didn't want a big proposal and wanted to keep it low key.
He did say the sweetest thing...
"I was trying to think of where to propose. And what better place then the place we had our first kiss, first said we loved each other and where we will start our lives together."
(I'll be moving into his place after we are married)

Did this happen fast? YES! 
Did I always say I would never get engaged fast? YES!
I am eating crow and proud of it...
Our relationship has been very led by the spirit. There is no denying that we are doing the right thing.
I have no doubt or fear in my mind that Brad and I will have an amazing life together.
We are a perfect match.

I just want to share some of the qualities I love about him...
*He makes me want to be a better person. When I am around him I want to strive to be the type of girl that I should always be...
*He is HILARIOUS...we always are laughing about something....
*He is a hard worker...he puts in so many hours at work, works hard everyday and that is so endearing to me.
*He is an amazing father. The relationship that Dale and Brad have is incredible to see....Dale adores his dad.
*He treats me like a queen. (I always said I would marry a jerk because that is all i knew) For example the other night my feet were hurting from a long day at work...he got out the foot spa put hot water and bath salts in it and rubbed my neck WHILE my feet were soaking.
*We have such a great communication one with another.
*We make a great team and can work through anything....
*He is a worthy man and  lives his life in the ways of the gospel...

I am the luckiest girl in the world to be marrying BRAD HENRY!
I am grateful for the blessings that the lord has given me and the guidance.
I am grateful for all the hard times I had during my dating years.
It makes me appreciate this AMAZING man that I have even more now...

Dissappointment...

I can't help but feel kinda dissappointed in some people. It seems like now that I'm serious with someone I am being looked at differently. I got a pretty harsh email from a friend that has been of friend of mine for YEARS stating that I was being a bad friend. That I wasn't making time for friends and forgetting about them.
If he had truly seen outside of his ignorance he would have noticed that it's actually NOT the case. I have tried to make an effort to call and hang out with my friends too. Not just be blinded by the relationship I am in. This particular friend of mine is having a rough time and taking it out on me. It saddens me. After I responded to the email I got no response back...I called him and left a few messages without a response.

I feel as though when my friends got married I still maintaned great friendships with them. It didn't matter if they had a ring on their finger or not. SO, I guess you realize who your true friends are in the end. I genuinly was happy for my friends when they found someone (yes it stung) but I didn't let that get in the way of our friendship.
