But our official first date was at this little italian restaurant in Provo that's closed down now and then we went and bought some ice cream.

Well he got off stage and down on one knee to say "will you marry me?" but everything else he said was into the microphone.

The rules:
A. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning.
B. Each player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves.
C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.

1. If you know me at all, the most obvious fact about myself is how much I love my two Dennisons. I'm happiest when I'm spending time with them. Big Dennison, my husband, is my best friend and an incredible man. He loves his family and will do whatever it takes to take care of us. He's a great friend and gives excellent advice. I admire his strength and unwaivering faith. He's always been a good example to his friends and family and now to our son. Which brings me to little Dennison Carter. What a joy it is to be a mom. Everyday he learns or notices something new. He makes me feel so important and needed and loved. When he smiles and laughs with me, my world feels complete.

2. We have moved out of Utah! This is the first time I've lived more than 20 minutes away from my Mom and Dad. It's only been a couple weeks but I miss them already. Luckily, we have the phone and internet to keep in good contact. It's fun though, not knowing anyone here except my family. It's a new adventure everyday.

3. As you have noticed, I now love the blogging world. It's such a fun easy way to keep up with everyone. I also enjoy sharing the latest photos of Carter and telling the stories of our day to day journey.

4. I am deathly afraid of spiders. My little brother can attest to this. When we still lived with mom and dad, I would yell for him whenever I spotted a spider. He always came to my rescue with a big wad of toilet paper in his hand, ready to squoosh. Now, living in Washington, the heart of their existence, there's new spidey webs across our door frame every morning. I just try to remain calm so that Dennison doesn't mistake me for an insane person. So needless to say, I'm finally facing my fears.

5. confession: I still haven't finished my wedding scrapbook..... in fact, I have less than 10 pages done... out of who knows how many!

6. I am so grateful for all the wonderful examples I've had throughout my life so far. Also the many experiences I've had, both good and bad, have helped me to be understanding and able to relate to people very well. Going through something really hard gives you that experience and knowledge that will always be with you to use and draw from and maybe even make future hardships more bearable. Seeing the examples of those I respect and look up to has been so great and helpful to me so thank you!! Especially to my mom who has always been the rock solid mom that everyone wants.

wow. sorry that was soooo long

I would like to now TAG everyone who reads this. EVERYONE!! I know who you are and your blog addresses which I will be checking
