Bridals

I figured it's about time I put the rest of my bridals up. Or at least some of my favorites.

I had a lot of fun getting my bridals taken. It took up a lot of time. More than we had hoped so we didn't get as many but I still love the ones I have. My two sisters came and helped think of poses and to get me ready for the pictures. And my mom took the pictures. We went and took a lot of pictures up the canyon, where I got on a horse for the first time. I was scared to death. And then we went and took pictures on mainstreet. I love my pictures. Thanks Mom, Kami and Jeni :)

Sneak Peek!

I just thought I would give you a sneak peek of my bridals that were done on 9/11/10. They are amazing I love them all! Thank you mom, Jeni, Kami and Brittney! You are all amazing! :)

Bachelorette Party!!!

So pretty much I had the best Bachelorette Party EVER! It was so much fun! I was suprised at how many people love me and decided to come party with me before I get married in two weeks! Ceason and Brooke are the ones who through the party for me. I love them so much! They are such amazing friends! :)

Ceason, Erica, Corey, Laramie, Nicole, Brooke,

Brittney, Laramie, Me and Kandise are all in the picture.

Kalie Bird also came but she left right before we took the picture :( But I am pretty happy with getting a picture with almost everyone there :) I don't get to see some of my closest friends all at the same time. So Friday the 3rd of September was a very happy day for me! :) I got a lot of fun... stuff from my friends. :) Which consists of stuff like, lingerie, glow in the dark fingerpaint... I changed my mind maybe I shouldn't be naming off these. But there is more :) I think Travis will be pretty happy that my friends threw me a bachelorette party even though I had to be away from him. :( But I am so thankful for my friends :) They are all truly amazing! Especially Brooke Butler. My best friend and my maid of honor! :) Love you all!

Payson Canyon

I went up Payson Canyon on August 12, 2010 with my fiance :) We took lots of pictures, of course!:) We carved our names in a log. I Carved Travis' name and he carved mine. Of course you can tell Trav carved my name better, plus that was the first time I had ever carved anything! So I thought I didn't do that bad of a job! :) then we cut a hole in the heart and put my ring inside.

Gorgeous ring right!? I absolutley love it!
Then on the way down from the canyon, we stopped on the side of the road and took a picture of a pretty sunflower :)

and then on the other side of where we were taking pictures of the pretty sunflower, Travis saw some deer. He had to take a picture of them. And he got a really good picture, they all ended up looking at him at the same time.

Gotta love the canyons! :)

I told you there would be more!

On July 22, 2010 Travis and I went with my mom and took more engagement pictures. We had a lot of fun. And took exactly 400 pictures! I know a lot right!? But it didn't seem like it took that long. We went and took some pictures in some weeds. And then by the train on the side of the freeway lol. Then we went and took some pictures on main street. These are some of my favorite pictures! We tried to go to the Mapleton red barn but couldn't find it anywhere!!! So we went and took some pictures by some cool doors by the Mapleton park. It was a blast, thanks mom, love ya!

,

I keep falling more and more in love!

I wake up this morning so happy that I don't have to work. I get on my computer, go to Facebook, and I see that I have an email. I go to look at it and I see that it's from my fiance:) I open it up and it reads,

"When it rains it reminds me of you. the way it feels on my skin drives me insane just like the way your touch does. I love the smell of rain, it doesn't compare to how perfect you smell but it smells good. I love the sound and view of a thunder storm it is so pretty but you will always be the most beautiful thing in my eyes. but with everything a storm has most of all I love holding you tight in my arms and kissing your beautiful lips in a storm. I love you Whitney Michelle and I always will. Forever more and all eternity, I love you babe.

Love yours truly,

Travis"

Tears fell from my eyes. Something happened that I never thought could. I fell absolutley more in love with him! Which couldn't be possible. He seems to surprise me more and more everyday! I could never ask for a better person to spend the rest of my life and eternity with. I am so in love with Travis! He is the love of my life! :)

More Engagements

On Saturday July 10, 2010 we went with my parents and tooks some engagement pictures at Peteetneet. We had fun. My nephew Kanyon came with and he wanted to be in all the pictures with us. He kept posing and telling us how to pose. He's a cutie!

Hogle Zoo

Last Saturday I went to the Hogle Zoo up in Salt Lake with my family, Curtis' mom, grandma and my fiance! We had a blast! It was really hot, the poor little penguins looked so sad in the heat. Kaleb and I watched the elephant spray water on itself to cool off and take a poop not too far from us. Travis and I got an ice cream cone that could feed a third world country. It was huge! Also the best ice cream cone I've ever had. Kaleb and Kanyon couldn't get enough of it either! Everytime Kaleb wanted some ice cream he would make sure I knew. He would bounce up and down grunting until he got what he wanted! He's adorable!

And at the end of the day we were packing everyone up to leave and in the Keigs car they don't have air conditioning so I put Kaleb in Travis' Mazda with me and turned the air conditioning on full blast while he played with the radio. Kanyon also wanted to cool off so he jumped in the drives seat and put the air on him while he pretended to drive. I love my nephews they are adorable. The zoo was a blast. And it was the first time I went to the zoo with my fiance! :) Great Times! :)

Some of the many engagement pictures

On June 25, 2010 Rebekah Black (one of mine and Travs friends) took some engagement pictures for us. We had a lot of fun. We went to the court house in Provo, the state hospital, some orchards. We took these pictures in 100 degree weather! It was very hot!!!

This is just some of the many engagement pictures that will be posted through the next couple months. I have a lot of family and friends that want more photography experience. We still have 4 more sessions! Crazy right!? We are going to have a lot of pictures to choose from. I'm pretty excited! :) So stay tuned for more of our engagement pictures. We have two shoots on the 10th. One from my friend and the other from Travis' sister Sephi. So that should be fun:) And then I have my parents and my friend Ceason. But I don't know when those two will be. So stay tuned for more :)

I'm Engaged!!!!

On Friday June 18, 2010 at 5:00 p.m. Travis and I were going down arrowhead trail on our way to his brothers house in Spanish Fork. Well Travis was going 50 in a 40 and we got pulled over. Of course! I was super mad because I told Travis if he gets pulled over and gets a ticket one more time he was going to be in big trouble! Well the cop came up and got his license and registration and everything and told us to hang tight for a minute and he would be right back. Well the cop came back and asked Travis to step out of the car. And Travis was like "um okay, what's wrong?" And the cop said "Well did you know that you have a warrant out for your arrest?" And Travis said "What no!" As the cop turned Travis around and put handcuffs on him and told me he would be right back. So I was waiting in the car patiently... Okay, I lied, I was freaking out! I had no idea what to do. I just sat there watching the cop talk to Travis on the side of the road with his hands cuffed behind his back. So I start to text Jeramy, Travis' brother saying Travis is getting arrested! What do I do!?!? But then the cop came over to my side and asked if I would get of the car. So I start getting out of the car when the cop asked if I would be okay to drive. I told him yes and the cop told me I could go talk to Travis for a minute while he tries to get a hold of his dad to set some bail money up for him. So I walked over to Travis as he is leaning up against the car. And I just stared at him wondering what to do. As he kneels down on one knee, pulled the ring out from behind his back and asked me if I would marry him! Of course I said YES! As I wrapped my arms around him and started to cry my eyes out! I was in complete shock! The cop came out a minute later and I was wiping my tears away when I told him "This isn't even funny!!!" And he was like "Hey I'm just doing what I am told." The cop told us congratulations and then headed back to his car. Then Travis pulled a dozen roses out of his trunk. I love Travis to death! I can't believe I am getting married!!!! September 18th! Exactly 3 months away from when he proposed! You are probably all wondering how this was set up. Well Travis' dad is a cop and he was friends with one of the Salem cops so he asked him to help Travis out. The cop put a voice recorder in Travs pocket. We aren't sure how well it worked in his pocket but we will see in a couple of days. And the cop also recorded it on his dashcam. And he is going to burn it for us and we are going to put it at the end of our slide show we are making for our wedding reception. So if you want to see it you better come. And I better see you all there anyways!

A great day in Salt Lake

On Friday June 4th, 2010 I took Travis and Kaden up to Salt Lake for Travs birthday! I was suppose to take Travis up on his birthday but I was sick and Travis insisted that we go a different day. So we talked Kaden into going with us. It took about two hours to talk him into going but he finally caved! :) I first took them to The Living Planet Aquarium in Sandy. it was fun.... Kind of lol. I think the best part of the Aquarium was the penguins! They were freaking awesome! Two penguins were running after each other slapping each other with their fins. And then the penguins jumped in the water all at the same time. I'm not sure how many their were. I think about 10 but it looked like there were 20 because they swim so fast! It was great! Penguins rock! We also got to pet the stingrays. They felt like sandpaper in some spots and slimy in others. I think without those to animals the aquarium would have been pretty boring. But we still managed to have fun.

After we went to the aquarium we went up to the Gateway Mall because Travis has never been there before! Crazy right!? We ate at Subway and I bought Travis and Kaden a shirt at Pacsun and me a shirt at Hollister. Then we decided to head home but what we didn't realize until we got onto the freeway was that we hit rush hour! It was horrible. We were getting no where! So we decided we would go to Ikea! I had never been there before and we didn't want to drive home during rush hour so we decided to waste some time. We had fun... For a while. until we got lost and it took us, well me!!!!, about an hour to find our way out. Travis thought he had to sit and lay on every couch and bed in the store. And Kaden had to get at least five pencils out of every little dispenser he could find! He ended up with I think 65 pencils!

What a great day in Salt Lake! :)

Provo Canyon

On Saturday May 29, 2010 Travis and I went up Provo Canyon and took pictures! We had so much fun. I had never been to any of the parks up there before. It was so pretty and we had so much fun! We went and climbed some fake rocks, took pictures by the freezing cold river, found a cute little bridge where we took pictures at. We went and walked by bridal vail falls. It was super pretty. I had so much fun with Travis. I love taking pictures with him and doing things we've never done before! :)

Travis's 19th Birthday!

Travis turned 19 on May 28, 2010. The plan for the day was to go up to Salt Lake with two of our friends Kalie and Taylor and go to dinner and the aquarium up there. But I had been sick for a couple of weeks and I ended up feeling worse on his birthday so Travis decided we would just go another time. Which of course I felt horrible because we had been planning it for over a month and we ended up not even going up! I did end up taking him to the mall to eat at Red Robin and bought him two pairs of new shorts, Rundown (the movie), and a really nice longboard which he picked out a couple of weeks ago.

Travis and his battle wounds

Travis's birthday was on the 28th of May. I got him a really nice longboard which just a couple days later my poor Travis went down dead mans hill and wrecked about 1/4 of the way down. Poor thing! I had to take him to the E.R. Which took forever because he wouldn't let me take him. So I had to end up calling his mother and have her talk him into it. We were at the E.R. for about 2 to 3 hours. Where my parents and then his parents showed up. He got road rash on his shoulder down to his hip. And had to get 6 stitches on his elbow where he lost a lot of skin and blood. Traivs was suppose to get stitches on his knee too but they couldn't pull the skin together. So they cleaned him up and wrapped his hand, knee and elbow up. It was very scary! Then I had to leave him for about five hours while I went to work. But I called him like every two seconds to make sure he was okay! I'm just happy he is okay. He luckily protected his head with his banged up arm so it could have been a lot worse. I just hope nothing like this ever happens again!

Playin Outside

On Saturday May 8th, 2010. Me, Travis, Kami, Kanyon, Kaleb, Kaden and Kyler went and had a great time playing out side! We played with chalk, drew pictures, traced each other, took pictures, the boys threw a football around, Kaleb got to a paintball and it got all over his hand. And he tried to lick it off! We had a lot of fun. It great to make memories with your family:)

Travis got his Eagle!

About a year ago Travis earned his Eagle! And on April 21, 2010 he had his Eagle court of Honor. I am so proud of Travis! He earned his Eagle all on his own. With no help from his parents! :) I am so happy for him.

During his Eagle Court of Honor, I was trying to get some good pictures for him. But every time I took a picture his bishop or someone else got in the way. It was very frusterating! I even moved around the church to different seats and I even stood to try and get good pictures and people still managed to stand right in front of me right when I took the pictures. Plus I was on the front row! But I still had a good time. Someone Travis knows even made Travis a really cool pen that's made out of wood and has his name on it. It was a pretty awesome pen. Travis was pretty stoked about it.

My 19th Birthday!

On Thursday, April 22, 2010 I turned 19 years old! I had a lot of fun. Travis and I went to the Lifehouse and Chris Daughtry Concert.We really just went to see Lifehouse but then we figured out the concert was really for Chris Daughtry, CAVO and Lifehouse just opened for him. But it was still a really good concert. I'm completly in love with Lifehouse! They are amazing!Travis also bought me a Lifehouse shirt. Which costed $40!!! I know outragious! The day was pretty funny though, we left Payson at 3 o'clock to get up in Salt Lake to find The E Center, which is where the concert was. So we get up there and find the building. It kind of looked dead, but I didn't question it because we were up there really early. So we went and got gas and went and ate at Sizzlers. While we were waiting for our food we made plans to go walk around the Salt Lake Temple grounds then go to the Gateway mall if we had time cause Travis has never been there before. Well of course Travis' food took forever and while we were eating Travis figured out that The E Center and The Energy Solution Center are two seperate buildings! Which we didn't know that at first because his dad told us they were the same building! So we never did get to go to the temple or the mall. Travis had to hurry and finish his food so we could try and find the building. By the time we found the building Travis noticed he didn't have any money so we had to go find a bank! And by the time we got back to The E Center and parked we got to the doors as soon as they opened. So it was pretty good timing! :)

Chris Daughtry

Chris Daugthry was singing and I took the picture at the perfect time right when the lights flashed so you could see the entire crowed. It was awesome!

Jason Wade, the lead singer to Lifehouse came out and sang a song with Chris Daughtry. I took the picture again at the perfect time when Jason and Chris were hugging. Haha another awesome picture!

Coloring Easter Eggs!

On March 31, 2010 I went down to Curtis and Kamis and colored easter eggs with my nephews! I made a really cool rainbow easter egg. And Kanyon loved putting faces on the easter eggs.

It was a lot of fun, but coloring easter eggs goes by way too fast! We had colored all of the eggs before we knew it. And that's when Kanyon decided to put faces on all the eggs. curtis made an egg with a face on it and a tail on the other side of it. He was quite proud of himself!

Spending time with my nephews

I have the two cutest nephews in the entire world! I love them so much!!! I try and see them as much as I can. Well one time I went down to their house to watch them for Kami and Kanyon my oldest nephew he is 2 he has a... I was going to say little camera but it's a pretty big camera. It works great and it's a kid camera so it doesn't break easily. Well we decided to take some pictures. Haha it was a lot of fun.

Kanyon would show me how to make a face then take a picture of me, then I would do the same to him. He can think up some pretty great faces off the top of his head. And it's funny when he shows me which face to make. Kaleb, my yongest nephew, he is 1 just wanted to join in on the fun and wanted pictures taken of him as well. You have got to love my nephews! They are so gosh darn adorable!!!

My best friend is married!

My best friend Emily just got married last month! I can't believe how fast time goes by! I remember when were in 6th grade just two little girls that couldn't wait until school was over so we could go play!

Emily and I in High school

Emily Fringer and I at her wedding!

I love you to death Em. You are amazing! I had such amazing times with you! I hope you and Josh live happily ever after! You deserve it! I lava you!

Photoshoot with Travis!!!

My parents are taking a photography class online. I have seen their work and they are learning a lot. So Travis and I asked them to take pictures of us, for fun! Just to remind you they are not engagement pictures! That will probably be next year;) hehe. We got these pictures done on the train tracks by Wendy's.

I love Travis so much! He is so amazing! Thank you so much mom and dad for taking pictures of Travis and I. I love them so much!
