Anyway my email is shanbloom@gmail.com   Dont keep me locked out of your lives! :) please? love you all!

A Little Update . . .

Um hi. It's been forever. Tiff reminded me I never posted about England. Too much has happened since then . . . just know that it was amazing and life changing and if you are ever in town and have 27 minutes I'll show you the movie I made. Just make sure to bring some tissue cause it will make you cry. :)

I guess I'm taking more and more steps into becoming a Blom (Blog Mom) cause I used this photobucket thing. Hope it works. Hope you like it.

And an update on my madre: she is "an inspiration" in how she is handling her chemo. They are giving her bucketloads of the harshest chemo ever, and she looks amazing. The doctors and nurses tell her that everytime they see her. The tests performed after round 2 show a "mild improvement." Not as good as we would have liked to hear, but better than no improvement, so at this point we'll take what we can get. Oh, and don't worry, I'm 26 and just moved home. The sad thing about it all is that I'm loving it (don't tell anyone!) I get to put my car in the garage (no more scraping) and I have a room big enough to not only stand and stretch in, but I could even dance in it if I wanted. And all the food in the fridge and the pantry is fair game. I don't have to label anything. Wonderful.

I'm still waiting for Jaime/Jenn/Pinky to post pics of their visit - particularly our awesome date. And Jenn needs to tell us all how she GOT 2!!!!

Oh, how embarrassing.

This is Ty's cousin McKay and some of his friends from BYU. Funnay..

the beauty of the desert and the cuteness of the smitten

We're getting married!

I'm sorry this took so long, but here it is a week later...

So it was Christmas day in the evening. I had been waiting for the ring since he got home a week earlier, but for some reason was not expecting this. For Christmas he got me a custom made puzzle with a picture of us on it. We were at his house and everyone was busy doing other things so he suggested that we put the puzzle together. When we got to the end I was looking for a certain piece and realized that it was no where to be found. We couldn't have lost a piece! We finished the puzzle and then began to look on the ground where it might have fallen. Justin was crawling around on the ground and then yells, "Found it." I was so relieved that we didn't lose a pice of my Christmas present and sat back down on the couch. He sat down by me and then I looked over and there was the missing piece sitting on top of the ring box that he was holding in his hands. I was so surprised even though I should have seen it coming. Then he popped the question and now it is official. Mark your calendars for April 25th, 2009. What a perfect date it is!

April 25!...Think about it!...
