Montalban Brutus

I want you all to meet the newest addition to our family....

This is Monty. His full name is Montalban Brutus. (Montalban is from Ricardo Montalban of Fantasy Island...Daniels idea!) Monty is a boston terrier...he is not the "normal" black and white boston terrier, he is a red or brindle color.

Yes I know that right now he looks like a guinea pig...but he is only 2 weeks old in this pic. (He was born on Aug. 13 2008) We found this little guy on the classified adds for KSL. We saw that the breeders live here in Logan so we decided to call them and go meet the puppies. We saw this little guy and fell instantly in love with him!

We get to bring him home the first of Oct. I hope I can make it until then! Angela (the lady who breeds and mothers the pups) said that we can go over there whenever and visit our little guy! She may regret saying that!!!

I know that this is sad...I do a posting about my new puppy before I post anything about my wedding! (my excuse is that I don't have any pics from the wedding yet...but I will soon!)

CRAZINESS

Okay, so life has been so CRAZY just letting you all know that I will be posting about my wedding and honeymoon (which was a BLAST)! I'm just wanting to get my NEW house together first...I'm sure you all understand!!!

Getting closer

WOW! I can't believe how fast time flies! It seems like just yesterday Daniel and I were just "talking" about getting married, and now it's here! Everyone keeps asking me (and Daniel) if we're nervous...I don't think it's nerves...I think we are both just really anxious to get married. I can't wait to be his wife! And he is just as excited. He keeps sending me cute texts about becoming the "future Mrs. Spillman" and today he said to me over the phone, "lets get married this Saturday!" I know that we are both soooo happy, this couldn't happen at a better time!

He had his bachelor party on Wednesday...they all (Daniel and all his friends) went to Wendover, NV. I don't know any details about what he did while he was there...all I do know is how sleepy he is today!!!

Just to let you all know how dedicated he is...he played in an indoor soccer game tonight. He wasn't about to let his team down! So I went to his game and with about 10 minutes left, his team calls a time-out and I see the goalie and Daniel switching places and all I could think was "OH GREAT...watch. The ball is gonna come flying at his face and he's gonna miss it and get a black eye for our wedding!" Luckily that didn't happen!

Well tomorrow I'm going to start packing for our honeymoon...we're going to Florida for a few days so Daniel can meet the rest of my family (Hi Mimi!) then we are off to Puerto Rico! I'm going to be gone for a little over a week so I'm not going to do any posts for a while and we'll see how I'm feeling tomorrow night (there's a good chance that I won't be able to sleep from all the excitement) maybe you'll hear from me then??!!?

Sarah and Daniel would like to thank everyone for their support and love. The couple will reside in Providence following the honeymoon.

BLAH (that's how we feel)

So I have decided that it is never a good idea to go to bed at 2am when you have to be up and into work the next day by 8am! Daniel and I stayed up ALL night unpacking and trying to get the house together so that when we get back from our honeymoon we won't have to worry about a thing...doesn't look like that plan is going to work!

Stuck in Alaska

So Daniel came home from Alaska yesterday. I went and picked him up from the airport, his flight got in at about 4 pm. He went with his dad, brothers, uncles and cousins to golf and visit family. Sounds like he had a blast and it is a very beautiful place (sorry, I don't have pics to post because Daniel forgot to pack the camera??!!!?).

Daniel decided the day before they left that he was going to try to get an earlier flight back because he had been away for soooo many days. (He went to Delaware for a friends wedding on July 29, got home from that on Aug. 4 then left for Alaska on Aug. 7 and got home on Aug. 10) If he didn't take the earlier flight home, he would have got back to Utah on Aug. 11 way early in the morning.

I just have to tell everyone how ECSTATIC I am that he did take the early flight. Last night at about 9 pm he got a phone call from his brother Joel who told him that the flight had been canceled because a VOLCANO ERUPTED! Can you believe that? They won't be back until Thursday (at the latest). So that would mean that if Daniel DIDN'T take the early flight back, he would be STUCK IN ALASKA! Can you imagine how big of a MESS I would be if Daniel didn't come home?!!? That is a SCARY thought (especially if you know me!)

Have no fear...we are here!

So I figured I would start a blog...I have had the hardest time trying to figure this out! But I think I'm finally starting to get it! (Thanks Brandy and Trish!)

So Daniel FINALLY popped the question and we will be married on Aug. 16 2008. It's coming up really soon...snuck up on me to tell you the truth. I realized that I was just sitting around "hoping" that everything would fall into my lap and I wouldn't have to actually do any planning...boy was I WRONG! But everything is good now and all I have to worry about is Daniel saying the "I do"!!!

Just to catch everyone up on what I have been doing...

On July 12th 2008, my girlfriends had a bridal shower for me. Lots and lots of laughs and tons of fun! Thanks for everything!

Then on July 26 2008, Daniel's mom, Jane and his sister Becky had a bridal shower for me. It was so much fun being around his family and getting to know everyone! Thanks Ladys!

See...We can dance!
