The day that marked eternity, May 3rd 2008
It all started with a prayer. After frequent prayer the night before my wedding day I was not only praying for a perfect day and that I'd remember the most important part (the sealing) but that I would also get over my fever and chills because I was coming down with a super bad cold. *Note to future brides...don't stress out! It'll catch up and in the end you'll get sick!* I can't really recall what time I got up for my friend to come do my hair but I do remember it being the butt crack of dawn! I wasn't nervous but super excited...in just a few hours I'd be sealed for all time and eternity with the man that I love! After I got my hair done, my make up on, and other important preperations, Quynn came to pick me up. Quynn and I decided that we would drive to the temple together and looking back on it I'm so glad we did, that morning we drove up to the Bountiful temple as best friends. The ceremony was indescribable! No words can match the feelings of joy, peace, and gratitude as I watched my husband kneeling across from me. After the ceremony followed with hugs from numerous family and friends. Many tears were shed as I watched how loved Quynn and I are, we were supported by so many that day, how truly blessed we are!
Walking out of the temple I felt like a princess, determined, unstopable, and gracious. I now had my better half and he was right next to me holding my hand.
So this is how it starts and this is me, My Life As A Udell!

Ode to the Bean
Dear Mr. Bean, bean oh the lovely bean! How I miss eating you so frequently in all your color and variety!
Why did I ever stop eating you?
Sent from the God above! It's divine texture and taste.
I vow no more I will begin eating you again, Oh Mr. Bean!
Oh the lovely bean! Mmm...good!
(And this is why I'm not a professional song writer!)

Boy meets Girl
And this is how my fairy tale started...
Quynn and I met through a mutual friend (aka Quynn's sister Stephanie). Steph knew of this so called amazing RM and asked me how I felt about going on a date with one. I told her sure but it would only be one date! BA! 3 AMAZING dates later, which by the way included a freakin awesome 11 hour date (mom wasn't too thrilled), I decided I really like Quynn. But, there's always one of those, I was afraid of getting married too young. So I slowly stopped calling and kind of avoided phone calls when I could, which secretly killed me inside but fears got the best of me. Shortly there after Quynn stopped calling and I graduated high school and went on a road trip with some of my besties. It was a BLAST, but I had this feeling of emptiness. The night I got home I decided I'd call Quynn and see if he was interested in watching a movie with a few friends. To my surprise he jumped on my invitation like a fat kid on chocolate cake and bailed out on his friends to come over and watch a movie with me. From that night on I knew I REALLY liked this guy so we hung out every day until I went to college in Logan (2 hours away). Quynn helped me move into my apartment along with my best friend Lindsey Buck, my super cool mom, and my two awesome brothers. It was there that Quynn was starting to get a little distant. I noticed he was probably nervous for a long distant relationship and how much he should put into it if I was just going to burn him like I did the first time. So I reassured him that I still needed to have a college experience and focus on school but that I wanted to continue dating him. Well after some HORRIBLE dates I could never stop thinking about Quynn. Not to mention my focus on school was no longer there, the spiral downward is what they call it I believe. So December 22nd I returned home for winter break and Quynn proposed. Not to mention I was super sick and my future in-laws insisted on video recording the proposal I have yet to enjoy hearing my "walrus like voice" as I said yes. So there it is...the beginning.
