Just to hold you over...

I promise that we'll write a better post later, but here's some clips from our date last Thursday to hold you over. There was also a wonderful time at the Mormon Tabernacle Choir public rehearsal, but our camera battery died before we had a chance to snap a picture of that.

When time is short...

I was reading in my journal just now, and I came across this entry. It's less than three weeks until we're married, and I thought this was an appropriate passage to share. My feelings and love for Kiersten have only grown stronger.

November 19, 2008

I held Kiersten's hand tonight! Yeah, I know it's been a while since I've written, and a whole lot has happened. I'll try to catch up more later, but for now just know that Kiersten is very possibly (basically certainly) the most amazing girl I have ever met. As far as I can tell, and I think I can tell a lot, she is everything that I've been looking for in a girl. It was so hard getting the courage to hold her hand, though. I've wanted to do it since last Friday at the basketball game (where I'm pretty sure she was hinting during halftime). But I did it. I did it tonight in the celestial room of the Provo Temple. If I may say so, it was a pretty good place to do it. Oh, I'm just so happy right now, but I really have to go to bed. I'll write more, don't worry.

June 2009

I'm not sure how many people celebrate the start of June, but I certainly am. Today marks the day that Kiersten and I can now respond to people's constant question, "When are you getting married?" with a simple two-worder: "This month."

Time has gone faster than I think either of us imagined. In just two weeks and three days, we will be saying goodbye to classes and finals at BYU. In three weeks (to the day), we will be driving to California to help with wedding preparations. And in just twenty-six days (three weeks and five days), we will be saying, "I do." Wow, it's gone fast, and I've a feeling that it's only going to keep going faster (at least I hope so, as far as the finishing school bit goes).

So, to celebrate, here's a picture of us. Have a happy, happy June! I know we will.
