July  9th 2009, I had been waiting for this moment for forever! As I mentioned previously I thought I was getting propsed to in December. I was Shocked!!! As you can tell by this picture. Dallin is the best at suprises. He picked out the ring, had it sent to New Jersey all without me knowing! Just another one of the many reasons he is so amazing!
Oh and I said YES!!!!!

My girlfriend Saralynn Buys and I had the oppertunity to dance with McHammer and Vanilla Ice when they came to perform at a concert here in Utah. It was a rush! We went bowling with Vanilla Ice and some of his enterouge the next night. I would have to say the most random thing that happend to me to this day was somehow McHammers Cell Phone ended up in my bag. By the time I noticed the random phone of coarse it was dead. I took it to Verizon and they were shocked when they unlocked it and found out whose phone it belonged to. They were like, How do you know McHammer??? So funny! I was excited that I got to have another “run in” with him. But so so random.

Dallin invited me to go with him and his friends Mike Weeks and Jake Christensen to East Canyon to celebrate the 24th of July. There was a wakeboarding competion going on, something I had never seen before. After boating we hit up Nordstroms because I was not properly prepared for the rest of the nights festivities. Dallin got me everything from jeans, to shoes to undies because all I had was a swimsuit and coverup.

He calls…

“Hey get some friends lets go to Lake Powell!” 

OMG!!!!

I call Emily Jackson, Skalla at the time and made sure Dallin was legit, this being our first formal date, she gave me the green light. So I went, and man am I glad I did. I had never experienced anything like it in my life! Besides the houseboats, hellicopters, waverunners, ski boats and tons of people, the best part was getting to know Dallin. This is where we shared our first kiss!

Well in the month of “waiting” for a phone call from Dallin. I had gone ahead and tried out for the Utah Jazz NBA Dance team and made it. This was a dream come true. But little did I know that something even bigger was in store for me….

I first saw Dallin at a pool party. I thought he was hott, but I was too afraid to approach him because he was in high demand and I was told he had a girlfriend. But I kept watching him and was dying to get to know him. But I just watched him from afar. 

Later that same night I went to a dance party with some girlfriends, and I could almost die when I saw Dallin talking to my friend Nadya like they were good friends. I got so excited I went right up interrupted their conversation and asked if he was at the pool party earlier today? Then I preceded to ask more questions…”were you wearing green shorts?”, “were they kinda shorter?” , and “was that a chain around your neck?”

He entertained my curiosity, he asked for my number, but not without a warning. He said, “Look give me your number, well do lunch. If the date sucks, I promise you’ll never hear from me again.” 

I rattled off my phone number

A month later he called 🙂
