ENGAGED!

There are so many of our friends and family that do this blogging thing. I love reading everyone's blogs especially my sister's and friends from my past. So, I thought I would try my hand at it. Living in Phoenix has had its many ups and downs. After almost 7 years (WOW) here I have managed to fulfill my dream of being a nurse and found the love of my life! On February 8, 2009 the man of my dreams, Richard Prewitt (Richie), asked me to be his wife! Of course I said yes and we will be married on July 18, 2009. Quick I know, but I still can't wait. 

Rich is originally from Wyoming, but moved to Arizona when he was 10. He has wonderful parents, and two younger brothers. The middle brother, Chad, played basketball for ASU and is now playing professional ball in Germany. He is the reason for our July wedding date. That is the only month he is guaranteed to be home. You can't get married without the best man! Rich's youngest brother, Tyler, gave his life for us serving in the army in Iraq. Tyler played baseball for Phoenix College prior to enlisting. He always seemed to follow in Richie's footsteps. 

Like I mentioned, Richie played baseball for Phoenix College, and semi-pro football in the AZFL. He also coached high-school football for 3 years. He currently manages Dos Gringos, a popular bar/restraunt in Scottsdale. He hopes to soon open a restraunt of his own. He is a great cook, and spoils me to death by cooking for me all of the time! 

He is such a country boy...which is just what I need. He loves to be outside doing anything. He especially loves hunting, fishing and doing anything athletic. He is such a blessing to me, and is everything that I have ever hoped for in a husband!

I will try really hard to keep everyone updated on the soon-to-be Prewitt family. I haven't been too good at that for the last 7 years!
