WE'RE ENGAGED!!! Save the date: JUNE 10th, 2010

Well last night, April 30th, at the Hailstone home, the love of my life proposed to me!! I can't say that I have ever been happier! I am so in love with Brad and cannot wait to share time and all eternity with him. He is the most amazing man in this world. I honestly couldn't ask for more. I am so excited! He will be the best husband ever! I can't believe how lucky I am! What did I do to deserve such an amazing man!?



THE STORY...

Thursday night Brad and I sat down with my wonderful soon to be mother in law and my awesome soon to be sister in law and made some suggestions about what we wanted for out wedding. The two went to bed after and Brad and I discussed what we wanted, people to invite to our sealing, and arrangements after, as well as our honeymoon. :) Keep in mind this is Thursday. I didn't have a ring on my finger yet. So we set our date... June 3rd 2010.. Brad got on Friday morning and saw that the temple is going to be closed for cleaning. We had to push it to June 10th, 2010. Which thankfully is giving me an extra week to plan. Well Brad didn't have work Friday and neither did I so I booked us in at Timpanogos Temple June 10th and 11am. He said he was running errands with his mom. Well Later that day he asked if I would like to go to dinner. I said yes! Then he text me asking me for my moms number for his mom. He said that she wanted to call and coordinate some wedding planning with her. I gave him the number not knowing that it was really for him to get a hold of my dad. haha Well we went to dinner and I at dinner he seemed a little quiet and I was thinking hmmm... maybe we're going to go ring shopping after dinner when Brad told me, "I made a rough draft video for our wedding with the pictures I have of us. I need your baby pics and stuff so that I can finish but I think we should go back to my house and watch it and you can tell me what you think." I was excited :D YAY! So then I figured no ring shopping. I thought I hope he just surprises me. . .
Well we arrived at his house and went into the theatre room when he put the DVD in and came and sat by me on the couch. The video was so cute and the song on it is, "I'm yours" by Jason Mraz. We both LOVE the song. :D So I am watching it and half way through the song the screen goes black and I figured well that is it and it is so cute! I loved it! Right then on the screen the word "WAIT!" appeared and then it said, "THERE IS SOMETHING I WANT TO ASK YOU...."
I looked over to see him getting down on one knee and said, "Shantell, Will you MARRY me!?" OH MY GOODNESS! I freaked out haha! I said YES!!!!! And then jumped up and started hugging him to death and kissing him! I wanted to cry!!! I was so happy and it was all so surprising! Then after a few minutes of that we let go and he slipped the ring on my finger. My heart was racing like you could not ever believe! THIS IS REAL LIFE! I AM MARRYING THE MAN OF MY DREAMS, THE LOVE OF MY LIFE!!! I CAN'T WAIT TO SPEND TIME AND ALL ETERNITY WITH YOU BRAD! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!

The best part is that he picked out the ring himself. We didn't go ring shopping! I did not want to! I wanted it to be something that he picked out for me to wear symbolizing that I am married to him!!! And that is exactly how it happened! The ring is the most beautiful ring I have ever seen! I am sure my "mother in-law" haha, helped! Thank you!!! It's amazing! This is all a dream come true!!!

Well I am going to try to get sometime away from wedding planning and telling family and friends to create a new blog. New life -- New blog. haha! I just set up our new email if any of you want it email me at shantell.daley@gmail.com and I will get it to you. :)

This sums up life... Desert and Dirt bikes...

My cousin and my best friend Kylie... She is getting married :D Congrats Ky!

The only thing on my mind at this time of year. I just want to ride and ride and NOTHING else.

Recent pic for gramma....

Long Time... No update.

I know I have totally sucked at updating the blog. I figured I would just write a little about what is going on in life.

So Brad came home from his mission January 28th as you know from my past posts. We are going camping with my family this weekend. I am super excited. It is going to be a lot of fun. Last week Brad came to my Great Grandpa Beans birthday. It was quite some entertainment. Grandpa and his Alzheimers.... you never know what to expect. I was nervous having Brad there. Sometimes Grandpa likes to bust open the marriage and temple discussions haha or others it is having S E X talks. haha So as you can tell... we had what I thought were some awkward moments there but Brad thought it was fine and laughed. I am glad he can rough it with the fam. He also came to Family home evening on monday and played soccer with everyone and played on the zip line in my aunt and uncles back yard. We hung out way late and had what he calls my "specialty" lol ... HOT TANG! haha Nothing way great but he must love it. Tomorrow we plan to curl up inside while the weather is bad and have some hot tang. haha! he is so funny! I am way happy he is home. We have so much fun together. Also his little sister Chrissy is so awesome. I have really gotten to know her and i adore her. Brad has really gotten to know my family and my brothers... haha we take them laser tagging a lot. But anyway... we are going camping this weekend for Easter with my family. I am way excited. We are bunking with grandma and grandpa. It is going to be sweet! Neither of us can wait!

Other then this.... I have just been working like usual. I am looking forward to going back to school. I am ready for summer and all the good stuff that comes with summer. Brad and I have a Lake Powell trip planned with a bunch of people. I am really excited about it.
Also lately I have been traveling with my cousin Brian doing the ISE shows (International Sportsmans Expo) They pay us to run our 3D pop up shoot. It is sweet. We have some freaking awesome trips. Great pics and many great memories made.

I have been blessed with so many things in life. I have been blessed with such an amazing family and friends. I just have to throw that out there. You all know who you are. I love you all.

Life is super good right now. I wouldn't change anything for the world. My aunt Michelle is getting ready to take her endowment out and go through the temple. I am sooo happy for her. Then one day when I am all grown up and looking at getting married... she can be there. She is like my second mom. I love her. I think this will be the push her husband/my uncle Skip needs to go through. I love them both dearly and you guys are in my prayers.

Well... fun journal talk right? haha I will post all my pics very soon!

Creepy... I googled Israel on google images and this is what came up...

So Elder Brad comes home on the 28th and he emailed me telling me he is starting to get a little more specific with his "when he gets home" plans. So.... He asked me if he could take me out to dinner on Jan. 30, 2010 via email. :D Of course I said yes! I am excited to see him! The picture is of Brad and I a week or two before he left on his mission 2 years ago. :D Love it! I am really excited to see him!

I am happy to be back to taking pics of everything I do. I will have to plug my camera in soon when I get lots of new ones and put them on here but here are some good times to share :D

News....

So yesterday my cousin Cierra did my hair and I went over to Ashlee's (a.k.a my adopted sister) work afterwards to show her. I sat there with her until she got off then we went to my house and my little cousin Jadyn was there. Grandma made us a yummy dinner. We were having so much fun! We always laugh soo hard together. Well we made sugar cookies and got each other so messy! Well mean while Jadyn was calling us names because lets face it... Ash and I are the biggest idiots together. Although we are the funniest idiots you will ever meet! haha But Ash sent me the above image! I was laughing so hard because this will totally be us when we get old. My cousin Jessica and I use to joke about it. I use to work at a nursing home so all the crazy things that our crazy old ladies use to do... we would joke that someday we would do! I thought this was the funniest thing ever.
Sunday night before ward prayer and after my scripture study I went to my friend Colby Lambs house and he made us homemade hot chocolate. It was so yummy! haha

This is my cousin Cierra and Gentry. (We're not actually "blood" cousins but our families are married into eachother and we claim each other so yes... we're cousins!) Cierra is the only person in this world I will ever trust and allow to do my hair. She is amazing and the funniest thing ever! Their whole family is! Gentry I set up on a date a while ago with Brandon's little brother Cam and they had a ton of fun. Well Cierra is 25 and sooo freaking cute! I love her to death! She is the funnest. So I decided that I needed to set her up with my really fun single friend Josh...

This is Josh... Josh is 29 and single. Josh is also a lot of fun and very attractive. So ... yesterday while Cierra was doing my hair, they came to my mind. They would have a lot of fun together and they are both pretty close in age. They exchanged numbers and have been talking and exchanged pics... so we will see when they go out. I hope they hit it off!

Benefit Concert Tonight, All money goes to children in Peru!

Tonight my friend Cory Beighley and his band are playing a benefit concert at UVU's center stage. It is at 8pm and will cost $5 at the door. All of the money goes to children in Peru. I have never heard their band play all together but I have heard Cory and he is amazing. You can make it your family night activity and bring the whole family. I can promise that it will be worth it and it is all for a great cause.

Your $5 can help put clothing on a childs back or feed them.

I don't know about you but these little faces are all I need. Your $5 will help put a smile on the little ones faces.

NC Premier was so much fun! It was so great to see friends I haven't seen in a long time. Jenny and I ran at each other like little girls on the play ground! I missed her and Casey tons! They are so fun! It was just fun to see everyone again. =) I'm glad I went! It was a great time. I'm excited for NC world tour to start! When they come here Jenny and I are going to try to attend a few of them when they come back to the US. We plan to have a perfect attendance to every motocross event this winter and every event in 2010! It will be great times! Mx events always are! You can't ever go wrong! =) I am so pumped for Wintercross! It all takes place in my hometown!
