New Beginnings...

March flew by so quickly! Tay and I are only a month and a half away from our big day! Whoosh!
And there is still so much to do.  My wonderful sister-in-law, Staci, has been hard at work on the boutonnieres and corsages, look at what she has accomplished:



Our Wedding colors are yellow, orange and pink.




So  many new things have happened in the last couple of weeks that have kept me and Taylor on our toes.  To start things off: Taylor MOVED to Boise!!! I can't tell you what a blessing it has been to have him here for the last week and a half.  This New Beginning started a few weeks ago when I was driving to work one morning, talking with Tay on my cell and out of the blue he said, "Kels, I want to move there to be with you, it is just too hard to be so far and I can't do it anymore, let's figure out how to get me there!"(or something to that effect) And badda-bing badda-boom - I found myself on a trip back from Salt Lake City, with Taylor following me in Sammy, his gutless-but-dependable-Honda-Civic, all the way back to Boise! 
Sammy was stuffed to burst, but he did so well :) Taylor now lives a couple of streets away with my sister's friend Clay, who gave us an Amazing rent deal...ever since Taylor mentioned moving here, things have just sort of fallen into place.
Taylor became employed immediately at Paul's Market and has been looking for an additional job since, which he received today at Micron.  He starts Monday!

So Taylor has been racking up New Beginnings lately: New (old) car, New city, New house, New ward, New Job and New Job! 

My new beginning was to drive all the way to SLC by myself!  My dad relented some control, FINALLY, and let me do it on my own. And it was Awesome...Though road trips are always better with Taylor. I had Starbursts, Ritz Bitz crackers, Five gum and water to tide me over as well as my entire CD collection.  So it was, with Cute is What We Aim for cranked to max volume, the windows rolled down, that I began the four and a 1/2 hour trip to West Jordan.  And it was glorious. No traffic - until SLC, no sun in the face - since I left at four and one divergence from my planned course which got me into Taylor's arms 40 minutes sooner than I had thought was possible - of course that also may have to do with going 88 mi/hr basically the whole way too ;)

Wow. It has been such a whirlwind.

I have to mention the return of Elder Kunde! My closest cousin came home last Wednesday from his two year mish in Texas; my Fam and I jumped into the Envoy on Friday to greet him. Happy New Beginning to you Josh!

New Beginnings have been quite the trend in our life lately and we have enjoyed welcoming them!

We hope all your New Beginnings are just as amazing as ours have been!
