| Group date!! Tall tees and bowling! |
I'm starting something that I thought I never would do. ha. BLOG! But since my life has taken a really sharp turn in a new and exciting direction i thought it would be a good time to start making note of a NEW LIFE:) I'm getting married to the love of my life Rex Smith on December 28th 2010. Our story is a crazy one but its perfect for us! i thought id share it to start the writings of our life together.
8MONTHS AGO.
It started on January 30th 2010. I was with my brother Jesse going to Rex Smith's homecoming get together at his house. I didn't want to go. I didn't even know him and thought it'd be a waste of time. At one point, Rex and I were the only ones in the kitchen area, we started talking making pointless conversation (he was already making me laugh!) and at the end of our conversation he asked if he could hug me! (haha. i laughed my head off! what a cute boy. i was the first girl he hugged:)) Our friendship started instantly and it was only a friendship at the time because duhh... I was a junior in high school. But a couple months went by after hanging out constantly and we realized our relationship was more than friends. We couldn't stop it from happening. We started dating in March.

| The first time we officially hungout! the day before valentines! |
SUMMER
We had the absolute best summer togetherrrr!! It started out with a week of NO work for Rex and NO summer school for me!! I decided to graduate early so we could get married and in order to do that i had to take government over the summer! but before that started Rex and I spent the week going to movies, out to eat, swimming, and being together 24-7! It was PERFECT! Then we went to Oceanside with my family and had such a blast!Fourth of July with my fam then 24 season marathons which were AMAZING!!!! At the end of the summer we got to go to Kevin and Brigitte's wedding in Utah1 (Rex's brother!) We love them and their wedding was awesome! So... basically best summer ever. The worst part was when he was at work:( or when i was at work:(! Other than that... NO COMPLAINTS!
FALL
School began the last semester of my high school life! We're both extremley busy! He's working from 6:30 to 4:00 and then goes to night classes at 6:00 and I go to school from 8:00 to 1:00 and work from 4:00 to late! We have the worst timing! But we make it work:)The wedding plans began before we were engaged and i was getting antsyy!! But to my surprise on September 9th we got engaged! I had no idea!
This is the story..
.I was in class at MCC and my mom texted me and was like " you just got asked to homecoming and i was freaking out because Rex and i had just gotten into a big fight about the homecoming thing. about me not going or going? and all this stuff. haha. but anyway, i called him and told him i had gotten asked and he was sooooooooooooo rude. i was like why are you mad at me?? and he just was like "well... who would ask you! they know were dating!"(which hurt my feelings) so i was like " well will you come with me to find out who it is so i can say no??" and he was like "it'll be awkward" which made me so mad cause i was like "uhm......... we've been through so much together! and you think it'll be awkward to go find out who asked me to homecoming even though i'm saying no!!!" (at this point i was yelling) haha. and he was like " yeah just go find out who it is and call me later." which made me so MAD! so i called my mom and was just going off on how i was so mad at him and if it'd even really be worth marrying him. and all this stuff (she knew the whole time he was proposing! funny) so i get to the house and there's a poster that said " roses are red violets are blue somebody wants to dance with you" and then a little map that lead me to quail run park. which Rex and i use to go to because we could not go to each others houses when we first dated cause it was a secret haha. so i get there and I'm so upset and i walk over to the park and by the slide i see a big box wrapped in red wrapping paper and all these styrofoam peanut things and roses everywhere. so i trudge over there just wanted to get it over with it. and i swoosh all the peanuts to the side and i didn't see anything. i was so annoyed so i picked up the box and dumped it out. first off the box was huge and peanuts literally went everywhere. ha. anyway i looked down and saw this little box and im thinking what the? And all of a sudden i turn around and see Rex running up behind me, he grabbed the box out of my hand, handed me a rose, and said how much he loved me and that from the moment he met eyes with me he couldn't get me off my mind, he told me how great things were now and how he could only imagine them getting better once we were married. he said I love you, will you marry me Emily??? it was amazing! i screamed yes and was freaking out!!!! i am the happiest girl in the world!
NOW
So here we are! Busy Busy Busy and so ready to settle down! I know this is quite the post haha. but now our story is told and we can begin our journey together.
