First of all...a Recap

K, so this is kinda tedious I'm sure but I'm going to do a recap of mine and Kevin's relationship up to this point.(In Lachelle's mind) Ready...and GO! :)
So back in September after an exec meeting Mike Langston asked if I knew a guy named Kevin Larson, was at a Class Rep meeting a few weeks ago...about 6'6" two hundred and something pounds on the football team...Ya I had never heard of him or seen him. So long story short we were going on a blind date which was a Thursday night on September 23rd. We had a double date with Mike and Luisa and played Phase 10 at Luisa's, then off to Applebee's for dinner. After dinner Mike had some homework that needed to be done before midnight so him and Luisa left us to do as we pleased... So we decided to head to Krave, then town square to talk for a while. I can't really remember what we talked about that night, just the normal getting-to-know-you questions but for some crazy reason I was pretty hooked on this kid and could see myself really liking him. The end of the night came and he asked for my number to maybe go out again. I went home and told my mom I had a ton of fun, even though Kevin was pretty shy and I probably talked his ear off but I could really see me liking him. I think from that point on my mom in the first time of my dating life she felt threatened. From that date on I was completely twitterpated and we spent about every single night together. So a week after our first date we had our first kiss, and another week later we decided to become exclusive where that same weekend I met his family since they came down for the Homecoming game at Dixie. So the next few months were filled with dates, me watching Kev play football, a surprise trip to Logan to see his family, and many lunch dates at the temple and somehow knowing that we wanted to spend the rest of eternity together. For me, there wasn't a specific moment in time where I knew I wanted to marry him, but somehow it all felt so right and I knew my life was on the right path. Luckily, Kevin felt the same way :)

December 23rd after Kevin got off work we had a date planned before he would go up to Logan for Christmas. It was after 10:30 so food places were limited so we just picked up some Arby's and headed to the temple where we would always have lunch together on Tuesdays and Thursdays during the semester. So we ate inside the car and exchanged presents then took a quick walk around the temple. When we got to the front gates we just talked for a bit and held each other..it was freezing and even Kevin was shivering (or shaking from nervousness) but before we headed back to the car Kevin said he had one more present for me. There he got down on one knee and said "Mary Lachelle Williams, will you marry me?" Of course I said yes!! It was a simple proposal, but that's us, we're pretty simple people and all I cared about was the man I wa going to sit across the alter from.

So from then on our time was filled with stress, well my time...wedding planning, school the works. Our wedding day was perfect, I wouldn't have been able to pull anything off if it weren't for my mom and sister in law Kim and everyone else! But seriously those two helped so much and only had about 3 hours of sleep the night before the wedding.
Kevin and I were extremely lucky to have my grandpa seal us in the St. George Temple, he just turned 90 p.s. and has sealed all of his grandchildren who were able to be married in the temple.
It was a beautiful ceremony filled with those closest to us...well those we could squeeze into the room. When I look back on our wedding day I want to relive it again and again. All the happiness and love and beautiful St. George sunshine. Ah it was perfect! Of course, there were a few things that went wrong or didn't go exactly as planned and maybe my mom was extremely stressed but what's a wedding day without all that right? Oh, and I should probably add there were 26 other weddings in the Temple that day...It was only a little busy in the Bride room. ;)

The whole next week was Spring Break and Kevin's grandparents were kind enough to let us stay at one of their time shares in Vegas for FREE! So we partied it up after being in Vegas for both my bachelorette party and his bachelor party. We walked the strip, went to the temple, dressed up all fancy for a nice dinner. It was so much fun and I just wish we didn't have to be back to real life so soon...I think that is enough recap for now! Thanks for reading! Or at least glancing ;)
