August 23-25, 2001

I went to go have my temple recommend interview with Pres. Halladay and while I was their I felt so comfortable and ready to enter the Lord's house. He advised me to read "The Holy Temple" and also "Between Husband and Wife" he also had written down a few scriptures for me to read about the temple. He is an inspired man and I am going to miss my leaders here in Tooele. I will enter the temple on Sept 15th. Its amazing that the time has come for me to take another step in my life towards exaltation and to have Trent by my side. I love him and he always wante me to do my best and I hope that together we can make it all work for the best.

I flew into San Diego on the 24th and Trent was there to pick me up on time! We then went to the harbor and he suprised me with a boat excursion which is a boat dinner/dance cruise around the harbor. It was very romantic and we had a blast just being together and sharing that moment. He also suprised me with my offical ring and proposed to me again on top of the boat. I am impressed with the guy even though sometimes he dosen't figure it out on his own he has people giving him ideas but the point is that he follows through.

The 25th I went to work with Trent it was pretty interesting. I think I will work with him sometimes its not that bad but I guess I don't do it everyday so I shouldn't say it. After work we ran some errands and decided to get our hair done for our engagement pictures that night. We found a place and it took the girl 1 1/2 hrs to do it. Then we went to the house and Whitney did my makeup and it looked great. We went to Carlsbad off Palomar Airport Road to a little park with water. Whitney took the pictures for us.
