A bit of Heaven!

I just had to post some pictures of my new wonderful niece and nephew. They aren't very recent because my camera hasn't been working right... so these will have to do. Adalyn was born April 22, 2008. She is a beautiful girl and amazing in so many ways. She smiles constantly now that she has control over her facial muscles and she loves her peas! :) She is also gaining her first tooth and trying her hardest to crawl. (Uh oh!) :)
My nephew Kayson was born July 3, 2008. Although I only got to spend a couple short weeks with him, he is a handsome little fella and strong too. He is fun to watch cause he just kicks his legs here and there and everywhere. :) He is starting to play with his toys more and it was fun to see him learn new things in the short time he was here. Being an Aunt has been altogether THE BEST! I love watching them grow and learn and play. It's amazing! :) I don't get much time with them, but I am grateful for the time that I do get. These two wonderful babies amaze me day by day and they have wonderful parents who are amazing in and of themselves. I am excited to have children of my own some day so that I can have my own little bit of heaven. I love them all!!!

Camping!!!

This is the camping trip that Jordan and I went on. We went up in the Uintas. It was pretty good weather. We went in July, and I just haven't gotten around to posting about it. We went on a few hiking trails and just had a blast. We also went fishing. Those pictures are on Jordan's camera so I can't show you, but he caught a lot of fish... I only caught a couple river ones and they were tiny anyway. lol.
Here is a picture of us on one of our hikes. This lake behind us was the destination. So we can at least say that we made it. lol.
This was a pond on our way up. It was so beautiful and so peaceful. We just loved it. Nature is what brings the best out of us... especially me! Lol.
Here is a picture of the sunset. It was awesome. It kind of looked like a picture that a professional would take. It was amazing.
These are all the colorful flowers that I picked along the way. So many different types. They were all beautiful so I had to take a picture of them for memory.
Here is a picture of the Mountain we were hiking next to. If you look real close there is still snow right in the middle.
Here is a picture of the scenery again. I just love nature. Its apart of me. This was an open field. Some of the trees are dead because a ton of beetles flew over the Uintas and killed over half of them. It was sad, but for the trees that lived it was beautiful.

Here are some pictures of the ring that he got me! I think its perfect! :) He knows my style! Ha ha.
This was after he proposed to me... I had to get a kiss from him! He is amazing! :) Our plans are to get married next year in June... we haven't quite decided what day, but we will figure it out. lol. We will be getting married in the Salt Lake LDS temple. I am truely excited and I can't wait for that special day! More updates later! :)

ENGAGED AT LAST! :)

Okay! So here is how the story goes.... first off Jordan decided that he wanted to go up to waterfall canyon to enjoy one last hike for the summer. The hike took forever and we were extremely tired cause it was probably 100 degrees outside that day. (The funny thing is that for the three days before Tuesday the weather said it would be cloudy with a chance of a storm, but the entire sky was clear and blue!!) So we finally get up to this spot which is right at the top of waterfall canyon. What a beautiful view it was. :)How amazing right? So anyway... Jordan packed us some Subway to eat up there, but before he got out the food he pulled out a candle and lit it. Very cute and romantic... and thats when I knew... but he didn't ask just yet. We ate our food and afterward he told me to take some pictures of the view... which explains the first two pictures. Ha ha. So I turn around to take a picture of Jordan and he starts to get down on one knee. I was super excited.... I was going crazy just waiting for the question. And then he asks "Melissa Kay Wayment... Will you marry me?" I wanted to shout my answer but for fear of scaring anyone below I just smiled wide and said "YES!" How he asked me was perfect and I couldn't ask for a more perfect man to marry! He is definately amazing!
