Life as it Comes..

Fall time is coming, fall is my favorite season. I think its the fact its not burning hot and its not cold. You can start layering your clothes and wearing sweaters. The Leaves fall off the trees and many more events happening. Example:
*A sister getting her mission call
and
*A car breaking down on the freeway
All of the guesses before Sister Whitney Rebecca Baird opened her call.
Where is she going???

KOBE, JAPAN!!
How exciting!! She will be one awesome missionary serving the Lord! I can't wait to hear her stories of growing as a person from her successes and her failures. She is strong and will be amazing!
The next day...
On the freeway...
Involving a tire...


Micah's tire didn't like the freeway it decided to die. We pulled off to the side to fix it, okay for Micah to fix it. He wouldn't let me help. So what did I do?

Waited, oh so patiently :)

HE DID IT!! It only took him from 4:04-4:39, but that's because he didn't think he had a tool when he did. It probably only took him 10 min.
...
But that's whats been happening this week with fall in the air, soon to come. I can't wait for; the leaves to fall, for the trick or treaters and the costumes, and all the exciting wedding plans.

SAY WHAT???




Friday September 17th, night time around....sunset time, Micah LeRoy Wiederhold asked me a very serious question. What was this question you are all wondering? "Will you marry me?" And now you are all probably wondering what my response was...? Right? "Yes, of course!" Those were my exact words. Well lets start from the beginning..

I like to think I have a sense for things, I knew something was up with Micah I just didn't know what. He was acting different being sneaky. (we work together and are together for 24 hours) As we were headed off to work Friday he said somethings to his sister on the phone that made me wonder if he might pop the big question, but not really. He kept telling me he wouldn't get a ring and do all that stuff for 2 weeks. So I quickly dropped my thoughts. We had plans that night to go to the Conference Center for a roof tour by his grandpa. This was a rare tour, he told me. I was excited. We dressed up naturally, it was the conference center. When we reached to the mall his grandpa called saying he was running late. Micah just trying to figure out what we could do to kill some time before we go. As we got closer to Thanksgiving point he told me the gardens are beautiful, that he had gone there with his family. I agreed to going there thinking it was a nice day way not stop at the gardens. As we pulled in and Micah driving around to find a parking spot, once we found one there across from us a few spaces over was his brother in law. I looked at Micah to see his reaction. He just looked back at me with this confused face but he was wearing a bit of a smile. I knew right then something was up. He tried to play it off with "what a coincidence Alex is here." I remember my reply. "why would Alex be alone in a car talking on his phone and booking it off when he saw us? Micah something is up." He tried to persuade me not to think that, but I knew. We went into the place to get our tickets that were 20 bucks for 2. What do I do, take my time. got to get the 2o dollars worth out of the ticket, but Micah keeps hurrying me along. I know at this point exactly whats happening. I got cold and was shivering, he would like to think its because I got nervous. Maybe it was I don't really know. We got to the Italian garden where he had rushed, to see roses and Gerber daises (my favorite) on the pathway to the stairs area. As we walked I could hear it. My favorite music from my favorite movie playing...that's right Pride and Prejudice. The music is Beautiful. He got on one knee and that is when I said yes of course. I didn't cry. I am not an emotional person...again, if you don't believe me take a look at our Splash Mountain picture. Me= no emotion on my face. Well there you have it.




December 17th is our wedding date! One I am looking forward to. Things are working out, I am feeling the blessings of my Heavenly Father!!

A Surprise????

(taken after 7 hours of training)


I have been debating about writing about my surprise, I don't do well with surprises. Last week Friday August 27th a day before Micah told me he would be home, he surprised me...at work. I wasn't really expecting it, but I knew something was going on at work. Okay I guess I should start at the beginning?? Friday Morning I woke up and was in a hurry to work. I got there and went right into the HUGE PILE of papers for me to file. I felt so accomplished ready to do the millions of books. If you don't know me very well I like to organize. I was the one to alphabetize my cds, parents movies and books and in categories. I know strange kid.. I still do it. Cleaning my room can take me forever just by finding a new thing to organize.(okay this really has nothing to do with my story. oops) Anyways, I couldn't find some of the things I use for the books, being gone for 2 months and passing it on to Marissa. I told the ladies in the office and they started acting strange. Asking all these questions example: "How long are you staying today?" "Do you have enough jobs to keep you busy til then?" and a few more. NEVER, have they asked me these questions. When I asked if they knew where Marissa had kept her stuff, that I needed the stuff for the books, they were all sure to help me find them. One was looking everywhere. They couldn't find what I was looking for so they made sure I was doing something. A few minutes later they told me they found them (later finding out Teri (Micah's mother & the top lady) had told them where they were). I headed off to do books only to get a call later to come back over to the house to do more busy work. When I was over there one of the employers came in using his great acting skills and asked me to go over to the other program and ask a question. I didn't know he told me to go downstairs so I just went right upstairs and asked the people I could find. They looked at me with these 'that was a stupid question' face. I headed back to see the Wiederhold car. I thought for a second maybe.. but I didn't want to get my hopes up. (Wiederhold's went to pick up Micah) I then went into the program ready to give the answer to the employee who asked me. I just got surprise faces. He asked me if I could go back over to ask another. I kept asking if I could just call. Then one of the office ladies (while on the phone with Teri) told me that 'Whitney' at the other program, wanted to know if I wanted to come over to meet the teens downstairs. I bought this all and I was told SPECIFICALLY to go through the downstairs. On my way back over saw the Wiederhold car still sitting there. Curious but knew it couldn't be them. As I was walking I was just hoping a rooster wouldn't attack. I proceeded inside wondering where everyone was. Then out from behind the table Micah popped up. After 2 years he was there and all I said was "Micah?" I was in complete shock. Now I wish I could say I freaked out and cried like everyone asks me. But I was just plain shocked. He then proceeded to, actually I should skip the tempt of kissing me..too late already mentioned. Guess I have to finish it now. His brother-in-law and sister popped up. Micah then proceeded to dip and kiss me, I refused it. Yep that's right. Felt bad. I then saw the video camera. That is right ALL recorded. And pictures too. Yikes. I have loved every minute with Micah since he has been back. And I know I will proceed to love them. :)
