A Perfect Proposal


           The rumors are true. . . Treagan and I are getting married!  It has taken me way too long to get my act together and write the story down.  So much goes on once you are engaged though.  My mom started that next morning with the wedding planning and dress shopping.   It’s fun but a lot more stressful than I ever thought it would be. I can’t wait for April 8th to be here!  April 8th is the day, so save it in your planner! 

         Monday morning was a normal day. I woke up at 6am to get ready for work at 7 went in at 8 instead; it was a slow morning because of the holiday.  Treag and my dad were waiting for me to leave so Treag could talk to him about how he was going to propose and ask if he could marry me, a little last minute don’t you think? Ha   Poor guys they were really freaking out….well my dad was! He was pretty much pushing me out the door :)  Treagan came over for lunch that day and I made us tacos. As soon as we were done eating he said he had to go help his mom move some renters in.  That little sneak, he wasn’t doing that at all and I had NO idea!  I was supposed to go back to work at 1 but I didn’t have to, so once again everyone was freaking out because the plans were not going as expected.  My mom convinced me to go to Idaho Falls with her shopping.  I texted Treag and told him to text me when he was done with homework and I would come home and go to the gym with him around 6.  Well my mother had a 3 hour dentist appointment that she forgot to inform me about!  I was ticked that I had to wait in the waiting room with nothing to do.  While I was there I called my dad and asked him if Treagan had asked him if he could marry me yet and he said, yeah we are talking tomorrow at noon.  Ok my dad NEVER lies so that entire day I had no clue it was happening at all! All of the fishy things that happened I didn’t even notice because of that comment! Well I didn’t end up getting home until 8:30pm. Treagan and I had a yummy dinner that Konda made for her sisters birthday.  After we finished everyone was playing games and they didn’t even ask us to play. I should have known something was going on!  Konda wouldn’t let us skip out on games with them!  We went down and watched the bachelor and after that he said lets go play Wii at your house with Natalee and Andrew. . . so we left!  Konda called Treag in the house when we were getting in the car to go up to my house. I thought it was to come in and play a game before we left (ha) but Treag said it was to sign a birthday card for his aunt.  Little did I know it was to call my family and tell them that we were on our way!  When we pulled up to my house all of the lights were off.  I thought that no one was home so I said lets go back to your house and play games.  Treag just laughed and said “hey, what’s that over there?”  I looked and saw a huge mass of snow.  I wasn’t sure what it was. I just thought that my dad and Andrew were playing in the snow while I was in the dentist office with my mom.  So we walked over and when we got about 3 feet away, it lit up.  It was a ten-foot tall rendition of the Rexburg Temple!  Right then I knew exactly what was going on!  I was so excited I was literally jumping up and down!  Treagan bends down and says what is this and pulls out a ring box!  I just bent down with him and hugged him and kissed his cheeks!  Treag was like “Alison you are doing this wrong, stand up!” So I hugged him again and stood up.  He put the ring on my finger and I pulled him right up and kissed him again. I was soo happy!  My family had walked out while this was all going on and has signs that said, “Allie  Will  You   Marry  Me?”  And then Natalee walked over and gave me a dozen red gorgeous roses from Treag.  The Fullmers had rushed over so they were there to see it happen!  I loved that our families were there for this to happen. It was so fun to hug and see everyone after and take pictures! 



 In the making of my own personal mini temple! 


The finished product!


  
I was SOOO HAPPY I couldn't stand it!

Crazy but I want these for me so I can look back on them this is pretty much my journal for everyone to read ha Well New Years this year Treag wanted to have a little party because no one was really doing anything. So we invited some friends over and ate yummy food and played games all night and played Just Dance 2 on the wii ha it was great to watch everyone.

Part 2 of the Christmas post :) It was getting long so I had to divide them up just a little. This one is short I swear! Every year for Christmas we get tickets to the ballet! Its my favorite present because we get to go and stay at Hotel Monaco, which is my favorite hotel in Salt Lake, and go shopping eat yummy food and see the Nutcracker! I just adore Salt Lake at Christmas time! The roads were horrible driving down we saw a HUGE accident so traffic was backed up bad the whole way there! The ballet was wonderful as usual and they even got some new costumes this year! Natalee got her ears pierces at the Gateway the last day. She didn’t want to get them pierced in Idaho ha how adorable is she? It was a great week with the family we had a blast just hanging out together! See I told you it would be short!

XOXO




The holidays came and went way to fast this year! It feels like Christmas was months ago! Christmas is my favorite time of the year. Just the cheerfulness and everyone being in a good mood! This year my family stayed home again. I swear we never go to families anymore since we are all grown up. Christmas Eve I went bowling with Treagan family and all of their family (does that make sense? ha) it was a HUGE group but it was fun. And I got not 1 but 2 strikes not only just 2 but 2 in a row! Yes that’s something to brag about for me when my high score is a 56 :) after that we just hung out at my house and took a nap. Treag went to dinner with his parents and brother and my family had our traditional Taco Time dinner. Its delish and I know its totally not traditional but its something that my family looks forward too every year. My mom hates to cook so she started this when we moved to Rexburg. After dinner Treagan came over and we ate yummy cheesecake and watched a Christmas Story. I just adore that show I could watch it over and over again! Then of course Treag went home and we all went to bed and waited for Santa to come! Treag came over bright and early to do Christmas with us because it was his families off year so everyone was at the inlaws and they were doing xmas at 2. . . It was such a fun and exciting Christmas it was so nice to spend it with Treagan after him being gone on his mission for the last 2!


Treag spoiled me this year! He got me these sick running shoes! They have a little chip that connects it to my ipod and tells me how many miles I’ve ran calories I’ve burned sweet things like that! He got me some headband thingys for the gym cause I love them and life water! Oh and a tanning package ha I think that might have been a hint :) Oh how I love that boy I wish my dad took pics of us together but I guess he forgot. . .

Christmas Eve!

I got my yearly Southern Living cookbook!

I got a new camera because I lost my last one and might I say this one is awesome!

Tons of adorable cloths, Thanks Santa!

My cute family!

Treagan and me at a baseball game. . . I cant last very long so I brought out the camera


I LOVE this boy!

This past summer I “lost” my camera. . . I was so upset about it because I hadn’t downloaded some pictures onto my computer yet but what can you do right. I searched my parents house my car and my apartment and I never found it. I gave up looking for it and decided that it was gone. Well today my little sister was sitting in the back seat of the car and she sees my camera! It was just sitting there like it had always been there, but it hadn’t! ha Treag and I searched my car 100’s of times and I pretty sure we wouldn’t have missed it sitting on the chair ha oh well I am super thankful for whoever gave it back! So here are some of the long lost pictures of summer 2010. It makes me miss the summer! I can't wait for summer, for more reasons than one!

Treag and me at the 4th of July fire works they were pretty much amazing!
