Cheerleading

Since school ended and my cheerleading career, I have been quite down in the dumps. School kept me busy and I haven't gotten a job either. Nothing sounds appealing all I want to do is cheer or coach cheer. I know cheer is over for me but I keep holding onto it. It has been the most steady thing in my life for the past 9 years. I have always had parades in the summers, summer camps, practices. It has been my constant, where I can be with my friends and still work my butt off and call it fun.
Cheerleading has defined me for so long I haven't been able to put myself back together again. So... its time to turn over a new leaf and "keep on truckin." I have a wonderful life an amazing husband who would do anything for me. :) I have an adorable puppy who is my little world at home. I have so much to offer and give. So here I go!

Daisy Gerber :)

2 weeks before Kjell and I got married a puppy was born. We knew we couldn't live without a dog like my Mom's dog Pheobie we both love her so much and I knew I would be so lonely without a puppy in the house. So 3 weeks after we got home from our honeymoon in Hawaii we went to the house where Pheobie  was born and found our little fluffy puppy... Daisy has been such a joy in our life and she is our little firecracker!

The Proposal...

5 months into dating both Kjell and I knew we wanted to get married. We went to Vegas over Valentines day weekend with my cheer squad. We stayed in a hotel with one of my best friends and her fiance Kirsten and Logan. We had the best weekend together it was so fun! After that it was all down hill!

I kept hinting to Kjell that I wanted to go ring shopping with him but he was determined to do it on his own. Well he didn't get his way, finally one day we went and found my ring now I just had to wait till he popped the question...

I waited 2 months (at least i didnt wait as long as Kirst... haha) It was Kjell's first trip to Lake Powell with me and my family. He had this idea he got from my grandparents, who take self portrats of themselves by setting up a tripod and using a remote to take the picture for them. He had mentioned to me that he wanted to do that at sunset one night so we got on one of the waverunners, and packed away his expensive camera and my ring inside the front compartment. I could tell how nervous he was about this little trip of ours, but I didn't put two and two together until I was standing there on the beach with a camera pointed at me the sun setting behind me and my cute boyfriend. As he got on one knee I couldn't contain how excited I was. He asked me if I would marry him and I don't think I even said yes I just took the ring slid it on my finger and leaned down and kissed him. It was perfect :)

Our Beginning....

One of my favorite places to go in high school was Harts the gas station on state street in Lehi. You hardly ever saw me without a Harts cup in my hand at school. It was the place to be especially on Thursday nights where we would have "Harts Parties" and a bunch of us would just hangout in the parking lot. It just so happens that one night someone I didn't know came to the party, and it seemed like everyone else knew who he was but me. He had long hair with a headband, and a funny name. When he found out who I was he called me famous! I was confused by this, how did he know me? Apparently he had seen my music video I had done for the fim festival earlier that year, he had taken the same video class in high school, and had some friends in my same year who invited him. He recognized me as the girl in the rock video ;) That was the night I met Kjell. 3 or 4 weeks later I found him on facebook and fell in love with his pictures we started talking online and the next day we went on our first date! Exactly a year later we were married!
