Engagement pictures

We took our engagement pictures on Saturday! It was a lot of fun and really cold! Check out some of them here http://opiefoto.blogspot.com/2008/04/billy-becca-engagements.html .

Cute family!

I took a cute picture of my niece Erin today and it just so happens that she was wearing a bib that said "I Love My Auntie," hee hee, ok so maybe I did it on purpose.

I also took this video of her today because she just started saying "Hey!" and it is my favorite thing because she jolts her whole body everytime she does it!

Her Birthday is today and she turns the BIG NUMERO UNO! Happy Birthday!

Here are some updated pics of my cute Nephews who I miss and never get to see....:(

The older boy is Angela's boyfriends son, but basically Angela's as well so I consider him my nephew. His name is Blake. Handsome boys huh?

So since I don't have kids of my own to brag about I wanted to brag about the cute people in my family!

Birthday Cake

So it was my birthday yesterday and as Billy and I were driving back to his apartment he started being a little brat. So I took the lid from the tupperware holding left over cake and put a little on Billy's face. After doing this I realized that Billy would want revenge when we got out of the car. So when we pulled into his parking lot I jumped out of the car before it even stopped so he could not take the left over cake from me. He stopped the car and started to charge, but was suddenly stopped in his tracks when a full piece of cake hit him in the face. You would think this would stop him, but it didn't.....so I threw the second one and it hit his U of U sweatshirt. This of course made him stop coming at me because now he was more worried about the frosting on his sweatshirt than getting revenge. I thought I would share this story and picture because it is one a the few times that I have been able to take Billy down! Please excuse the bad quality of the picture it was taken with my camera phone.

I am on a roll...

I am constantly checking everyone's blog to see their new updates, but rarely do I look at my own blog. Elizabeth pointed out to me that I had a few comments on one of my posts asking me to please update my own blog. I had never noticed them lol! So here I go....Billy finished his first semester at school and is now 1/3 of the way through his second. He is doing really well and is EXTREMELY busy. We usually only see eachother on the weekends if we are lucky. I am however impressed how he can manage his time so well. I would be having a mental breakdown if I had to juggle all the things he does on a day to day basis. Wedding plans are pretty much done. I wanted to get them out of the way so I could focus on school. We have decided to get married at St Thomas More, which is Billy's parents church. We had to meet with the priest and he agreed to marry us. We will be having a ceremony with out a mass. The church is beautiful (picture is below), I wish I had pictures of the inside but I don't unfortunately. The reception is still at Memorial House. I won't go into every detail of what I have planned for the wedding because I know it is boring to other people, but we only have the small details left to plan and the major stuff is done. If you want to check out the photographer I picked her link is on my page, its Opie Foto. I am in love with her pictures, she is so creative and fun! Another fun thing to mention is I am lucky enough to get to watch my niece every tuesday and thursday mornings! I love that I get to see her everyday. I am currently in the process of trying to get her to call me Aunt Bob. She can't say my name, but she sure can say Bob. Hopefully it is a nickname that will stick because I think it would be funny if she said to her mom and dad a few years from now that she wanted to go visit Uncle Billy and Aunt Bob! lol.....I'm sure Billy will find that entertaining as well...... :)

Found it....

I found my wedding dress today. I had made plans earlier this week to go with my mom and my sister to look at bridesmaid dresses and then that turned into wedding dress shopping. I had no intention of finding a dress or even buying one, but I did! I had a whole entourage of people there with me, but I'm glad they were all there to share that with me! It ended up being the second dress I tried on and I knew when I saw it that it was the one, every dress I tried on after that did not even come close. I would post a picture, but I want it to be a surprise for a certain someone....hee hee. Thanks again to my family for being there and also my good friend Elizabeth for helping me try the dresses on! Love ya!

Update

A lot has happened since my last blog entry. We have both been crazy busy. Billy started school at the U of U in the Executive MBA program. Which keeps him extremely busy. He has class once a week. He is such a dedicated student and I am amazed at how much time he sacrifices to focus on school. I am so proud of him! Poor guy has even had to miss a couple of Ute games. Last Sunday we went to the U together and studied. It was kind of nice to have him as my study buddy. He definitely motivates me to stay focused. I started another semester at good ol SLCC. I have been there forever and a day and I am proud to say that I should be done next semester, that is if they don't decide to spring another class on me that I didn't know about. I have met with three different counselors and all have told me different things. As far as wedding plans are going we have reserved a reception center. It is going to be at the Memorial House in Memory Grove Park. That is pretty much all we have done, but we have plenty of time. We set our wedding date and it is going to be July 26, 2008. It's going to be very hot, but we had a limited amount of options on dates since we have to plan it around Billy's school breaks. It works out nice because we think July 26 is the day we established ourselves as a couple four years ago, so it does have some sentimental value to it. I moved in with my brother and sister-in-law about a month ago to save money for the wedding. So it has definitely been an adjustment getting used to living with a house full of people. The plus side is that I get to see my cute little niece everyday!





I get to call this cute kid my nephew!
pretty much the cutest kid ever!









Billy is a goober!

Me and my cute niece!
