Our sides of the story. Dating and Summer Movies

We wrote these seperately when we were dating back in September of 08.
--> Summer Movies Part One
-->
Well, I hardly remember anything from the movies we went and saw this summer because all I could think about was that I was siiting next to him. I heard Batman was a great movie though, but I wouldn’t know… ha ha.
A couple times I was wondering how he was still in his seat. Sheehan would slide sooo far down in his seat. I wondered if he was even sitting in his chair anymore….
We started a tradition of being the last people to leave the theater. We would sit together and stare at the credits pointing out funny names. Who are we to be talking though? Sheehan…Kiersten…Hmm… :)
One of the sweetest things he ever did for me was when he bought all of my favorite candies. He kept whipping out another and another… my love for him grew with every chocolate bar. :) I just wanted to jump out of my seat and hug him. I just thought he was amazing because he remembered MY favorite candy bars. He thought of me and that made me feel like I was special to him.

Summer Movies Part Deux
The first time I went to the movies with Kiersten I had the whole day planned out. I picked out a spot to knock on doors for a couple of hours. It was right next to a Vons and the plan was to pick up her favorite candy before I headed over to the theater. As I started knocking on doors there was no way I was going to sell a pest control service; a couple of people opened their doors, but I was in la la land thinking about Kiersten. Surprisingly, this area was full of bugs and I ended up getting a sale within 45 minutes. That made the day that much better. I knocked for a little while longer and finally RAN back to my car full speed. I had to pick Kiersten up at the Institute building in an hour, but I wanted everything to be right. I went to Vons and picked up some Kit Kats, but had a really hard time finding the Wild Berry Skittles (I looked at EVERY checkout stand!!!). I did happen to find the Cadbury Caramel chocolate squares so I threw those in my little basket :) Since I didn't find the Skittles at Vons I jumped in the car and on the way to the Institute building I stopped at an ampm and let a homeless man wash my windows for $3 while I got the Skittles. I had a lot of bugs on my window and he did a really good job... 
I got to the Institute building and picked up Kiersten. I can't remember if that was the night that we went to Subway and those crazy folk were having a mafia meeting/gathering around the trash can...oh well, we went and saw Get Smart. I remember trying to hide the candy from Kiersten. The plan was to put the bag in my jean pocket... well, it was REALLY fat. I tried to stuff it in my pocket and I literally had to shove it in. I looked like I was wearing parachute pants. Kiersten rolled her eyes and was definitely embarrassed. I had her hold my hand on the side with the candy as to conceal it secretly from the unwary ticket-taker. I was kinda scared I'd get caught, but this kid was clueless. He was looking everywhere but at us. My heart rate went down and we finally got inside. I hardly remember any of the movie because I was thinking about how much I liked Kiersten. I thought about why. Before too long, I had slipped down into my seat. It was unusually comfortable so I stayed there. Kiersten looked at me like I was insane. *shrugs shoulders* oh well. The movie seemed to be over after I finally had a chance to stop thinking about her for two seconds. Then we would just sit there during the credits until everyone left. I loved being around her. I was so comfortable and had a great time.

Kiersten's First Wives


These are Kiersten's first wives. They were excellent companions... Very loyal. So much so they risked their lives putting snow flakes on the ceiling for a Christmas activity. All in the name of LOVE.... haha
Married 4 months and loving life!


We're Married! 4 months and going strong! We live in Victorville, California which is where you live right before you go to Death Valley. What brought us here? Sheehan is selling ADT home security systems... self explanatory. We are here until March 2010. Then we will go back to Utah where Sheehan will go back to school. Major: Business Management and Entrepreneurship. Kiersten's major: Nursing (that's as far as we've gotten on that one.)

Yosemite June 2009

Our Art Class! It was fun to see everyone's interpretation of our view.... we're not sure where Katie saw sailboats and a hot air balloon fly across Half Dome.
MY FAVORITE PLACE ON EARTH!!!
I love Yosemite! This was another great trip beside the fact that my voice was gone and I had a really deep voice... It rained almost the whole week. Some could say it put a damper on our week but we looked at it as just another experience. Nothing went as planned but, of course, we still had a great time!

 Sheehan's first time seeing me in my dress.

 He's so handsome...

 We took our pictures at Balboa Park in San Diego, California. I love it there. The weather was perfect and the pictures turned out beautiful. 










Some of our group waiting outside the temple for us to come out after the being sealed forever!

 Sheehan's Mom, Colleen. 

 Norm Walker, Grandma Bev's Husband
 Coming out of the temple! We had to go back and do it twice because the couple that was going to go before us wasn't quite ready so they told us to go ahead. The only problem was their family was in front of ours expecting them to come out. We ran back and came out again when our family moved in front of the other.

 The San Diego temple. Sheehan said we should get married there because it looks like a castle and I am princess so a princess needs to get married in a castle.

 Our wedding announcement.





It was a beautiful day. I was a young 18 years old and Sheehan was 22. We were excited to be together and had big dreams for our future.
