So Stephanie and Eric have adventures lol.
Before Eric got up here, I finally decided to go and wash my car. It was filthy and hadn't been washed since driving up from Utah and I'd also driven to Idaho, so it was no longer pretty it wasn't even red, it was bug splattered guts colored. So I'd discovered that across the street from Safeway is a car wash, and since my car was so dirty, instead of driving through the auto one, (I was on the phone with Eric and he said to just go in the part where you wash it yourself) so I pulled into one and was oh so confused. So I had to go and get tokens cause I didn't have any coins, so i put in a dollar and got a token, so I had 2 minutes to wash the filthiest car in the world. Needless to say it took me longer so I had to get tokens, lots more cause the other other bill I had was a ten so I got 13 car wash tokens. :) Good thing I like having a clean car. So then i used alot i guess lol. And I didn't know how to work the thing and was laughing and on my bluetooth while washing my car in order to get instructions from Eric on how to do so. So if you ever need technical support on washing your car. You know who to call.
Another funniness, was I was going over to another engineers house to get a copy of an old test to study and I had Eric remember the address, cause its a number and that's his job. So we get there and ring the doorbell, and forever later the door is opened and this little old lady opens the door and I'm like I'm pretty sure this is the wrong house cause umm, college students don't live with little old ladies. So I ask if Sean is there and she's like no sorries, she's out of town right now and asks for a name so that she could tell her who came by. So I left her my name and went away and burst out laughing, and so then we figured out that his house was across the street and made it there and got the test all right, so I just hope whoever that was has a friend named Stephanie that can make her feel loved lol.
So there's some randomness, lol it happens all the time, like when Eric was playing with my phone and saw my quick texts so he's like oh, I want to play with these and then told me that he was going to send one to himself. And I teased him about texting himself cause that's pretty sad. So then we just talk and lo and behold, his phone vibrates a little while later and he's all excited cause someone loves him and sent him a text and then he reads it and realizes that it's the text that he sent himself ;P. hes' pretty silly. I love him so much!

The Engagement Beginning
So since I haven't written anything, it's my turn to write.
I'm so happy! I'm so crazy excited! Lol, today is so amazing awesome :D!!!!!
All I do is giggle.
So today I finally finished up with all of my horrid midterms and got to pack and get on an airplane to come home and see my Eric. So I get to the airport and we board early, and so I'm like dying cause this was a forever long flight cause I just wanted to get home and see my boy. and the flight kept going and going and trying to do homework didn't make it go any faster. So then they finally say that you can turn your cell phones back on and so I do and call Eric who decides he doesn't want to answere his phone the first time so I text and call again and finally get to say guess what! I'm on the ground in Utah and ready to run and see you and I confused him as to my location of getting out in the airportness so by the time I'm out there he is lost and I call him and direct him to me where I found him first :). So then we are so happy to see each others and eventually we get my suitcase and go and leave airport land and go downtown SLC to the building that I don't know the name of where we ate at the Garden on the top and saw prettyness and ate good foodness but I really don't remember that part lol.
So then after dinner we wander around the top floor but there are people's everywhere and so we wander and look at the prettiness. Eventually we go outside and wander about temple square talking and me laughing and giggling and skipping all over the place. We go over to the conference center and sadness we learn that my camera has no batteries so we had to take pictures with our cell phones which is sad but oh wells at least we have pictures....
So yeah we took lots of silly pictures and had fun and were talkings and just cruising around and then i'm listening to Eric's heart and it starts going really fast and I'm like your heart is going really fast and he's like ok, and so we move on and we talking and chatting and I'm hearing his heart go fast again and I'm like are you okay? and he's like yeah and we go on. And yeah we were there for a long time lol, but it was fun and good and I was so glad to be with my boy again and be able to have him hold me and to touch him cause y'know skype just doesn't do that for you. :)
So eventually we wandered around to the front of the temple inside the square just before 10. (9:45 lol) and we were standing there and talking and this time I didn't hear his heart go all crazy, but all of the sudden Eric's down on one knee and asking me to marry him! I say yes and he's like hey look here's your ring and I'm like what! I'm so confused cause he had been asking me if I wanted to go ring shopping this weekend and I'm like how in the world did he get a ring already especially cause it's so perfect and pretty and even has my green in it! :D! I love it. He did perfect! He is such the perfect boy for me it is so crazy amazing! I love him so much! So then we wents and looks in the light at my oh so pretty sparkle that my oh so perfect boy had gotten made just specials for me :D!
So guess what! We're getting married! Isn't that so exciting? I'm so glad to have my boy with me for forevers :D

Our Past
Well hello all and thanks for reading the first blog on Stephanies and my own blog! we actually have no clue of what we are doing but figure that with us being dating and all that we should create a blog! Well I figured that I would give everyone my side of the story of how Stephanie and I came to be.
Well I guess it all started back in 7th grade, we both went to Canyon View Jr. High and were running track, and if you know either Steph or myself you know that we both love running, and were runners through jr high and high school. So we were on the same team in 7th grade and we first made contact and became friends. I do not remember a lot about our jr high life, well I try to block it out of my head. I guess the first time that I actually looked at Stephanie and was like wow, she is amazing was in 10th grade, we were just little sophomores. I remember throughout the 10th grade liking her. If my brain remembers correctly we had 10th grade health together and yes I do remember I was lucky enough to sit by her, and actually remember the exact spot in the classroom that we sat. I really liked Stephanie back then but for some reason she thought that school was more important than boys. I asked her to Prom that year, and we had a wonderful time. There was a picture that we had taken the night of prom that I had in the truck of me and her, when I got off my mission the picture was still there, I was cleaning out the truck and had found it and instead of throwing it away I for some reason kept it. I went through that year of high school and realized towards the end that it would never work, she didn't really seem interested and so I decided to give up and move on. We continued to be great friends in high school, I remember many times that we would be at track meets freezing and I would always prefer to sit by her while cheering for the team, I think at the time it was because she always had good food to snack on such as wheat thins, chex, and of course my favorite was her honey nut chex, those were so delicious! We were team captains together our senior year for cross country.
I left for my mission in the West Indies on July 6th, 2005. I left behind many of my friends and actually never even thought I would see Stephanie again, she was leaving to go to school out of state and I figured I might run into her at the grocery store or something many years down the road. I dont think that we ever wrote a single letter to each other through my entire mission.
After returning from my mission in 2007 I was getting a group together to go wave running and invited Stephanie to come with me which she gladly accepted. I believe that this was just a short run to the lake in the afternoon but we still had fun. This activity was the first contact we had really had since graduation. She told me at this point that she was going to study abroad in Switzerland for 10 months, I asked if I could recieve her emails when she was out there and faithfully read and responded to almost every one. I had a girlfriend at the time but continued to follow through with her travels in Europe.
Following her arrival back in the states I felt a closer connection with her, and wanted to have a friend that I could use to help keep up my French skills. A few weeks after she returned she went on a trip with her family. Her and I were texting the entire time, it was fun for me because I was getting to hear about how her life had been for the past three years. She returned home after that week long trip and I wanted to do a french dinner. I invited to my parents house my girlfriend at the time along with her sister, and Stephanie. Stephanie brought a Swiss dessert and we played a good game of Settlers with the guests. After leaving my mom and I both realized that Stephanie was an amazing person and that her and I needed to be good friends for life. It had never crossed my mind that me and her would actually date, I figured a friendship would be great to have with someone like her. After a few complications I didn't feel right about dating my girlfriend anymore and we broke up. That same week I invited Stephanie to come watch a movie with me, I remember that first night that we hung out for the first time in what seemed like forever, I was very cautious of what I did considering I had just broken up with my girlfriend that same week. As I look back now I can only laugh that at the end of the night we didn't even hug. That following week we went to another movie, This time I felt comfortable enough to give her a hug at the end. We continued to do things together and it almost was instantaneous that we were dating. We couldnt stay away from each other, We began to do things daily, which then didnt seem long enough, and would continue into the wee hours of the morning. This was durring the time of the olympics and it just happened to be that they would come on late in the night. We loved spending time together, if we could have we would have spent every moment together for the rest of that summer.
I was offered a job at Henry Schein as a eSubmissions Tech by my sister and took it. I needed money and also felt like a need for a break in schooling. I accepted the job and for our end week together we were separated for 8 hours a day by training for my job. Durring this short period of time I also bought a car that Stephanie and I picked out. I had plans on putting every penny towards the car and was hoping to have it paid off in febuary of 2009.
As my mom quoted "Life is what happens when you are making other plans" this became true as we were separated by the distance of hundreds of miles. The first weekend that Stephanie was in Washington she bought tickets to fly down between that time and thanksgiving. we realized that one visit in that time would not be enough, so we bumped it to three! we are completely in love and are so happy together.
On January 5th I will be moving to Spokane to be closer to Stephanie.
