The waves and ocean speak to us. We love the desert, but we can’t deny our love of the beach and vast expanses of water and mist. We start to get giddy as we approach the coast, and both Justin and I always feel at home staring into the constant tide. It is steadying and…
Packing for a wedding day is no easy chore for anyone involved! We have seen planners arrive with moving trucks, so we can’t rival them; but we often look like we are spending a weekend away (and for some weddings we really are). We pack all the obvious things, but there are a few not…
Justin took my hand as we strolled through the streets of St George after dark. Our perfect Summer was winding down, and we talked of Fall plans and our looming semester when school and homework would pile onto our jobs and make our time together a lot less frequent. I was sad, thinking of losing…
The Second Proposal For a week we were engaged and almost nobody knew. We had selected a ring together, he had asked my dad, and he had secretly told his parents because he needed allies for the next part. The clean mountain air was a welcome break from the St George Summer, our faces were…
I opened my phone to find a text from Justin. We’d been hanging out in a mutual group for a while, and I thought he was funny, smart, and definitely a dream boat. He was strapped for time at work but wanted to take me to dinner, so he decided to go the texting route. …

Justin has never disappointed me when it comes to my birthday. I know this may come as a surprise to some of you out there. He is a typical man, without super powers, and while he is super considerate and always thoughtful of my needs, this isn’t the reason the day goes off without a…
After that first date Justin and I became inseparable! We spent a whirlwind Summer swimming at the lake, playing sand volleyball, and getting into many intense water fights. He told me he loved me laying on a blanket watching fireworks, and we spent many evenings slow dancing to him singing “Earth Angel” into my ear. …
The First Date Justin texted me to ask me on that first date… yes, texted. He is so lucky he is charming and hot. He was super bogged down at work and didn’t have time for a call. Now I think texting to ask on a date is perfectly acceptable, but it was not so…
One day Justin and I were playing hide-and-seek with our 3 girlies (which by the way is our favorite way to spend a Sunday afternoon…), and Justin was “it.” Now, I swear Justin and I have the ability to read each other’s minds. There have been far too many times I have a song in…
