I'm sorry that I'm so bad at posting. But I am now officially
Mrs. Rachel Langford!
Adam and I were married for time and all eternity in the Mesa Arizona Temple on March 12, 2011. Everything was perfect. Thank you everyone who helped. It means so much to us! More to follow and hopefully some pictures too!

On November 19, 2010 Adam suggested that we go on a picnic up on the mountain. This is a mountain up on Snow Bowl Road that we go to every once in a while to be alone and in nature. This day we made our sandwiches and other things to put in our lunch like normal and headed up. When we got there we went down into the small grove of trees to find the tree that we always sit on to eat. We found it and sat down and started eating our delicious lunch. When we were done, we went on a short walk into the meadows next to the grove of trees. We walked for a bit, and then Adam stopped to give me a big hug. After the hug he told me how much he loved me and some reasons why he loves me. The next thing he said was, "So I have a question to ask you..." At this point my heart was pounding because I knew what was happening and could not help but have a beaming smile on my face when he said, "Will you marry me?" as he got down on one knee. I gave him another big hug and told him, "yes!"
The entire time before he actually asked me I was thinking, "This would be the perfect time (right before Thanksgiving), the perfect place, the perfect time of year (before it was cold and snowy on the mountain), but he won't have the ring yet." He had told me that it would take about 2 weeks longer to size than it really did so that I would be surprised. And I was surprised! I can't wait to marry him on March 12th in the Mesa Temple!

Update!
So I know that I haven't posted for a while, so I thought I'd tell you some of the stuff that has been going on in my life for the past couple of months. First, I spend the month of July in Mesa with my family. It was so much fun to be able to spend time with them. Two of my neices that I was able to play with while I was home! They are cuties!
And then at the beginning of August my sister Jill got married to Dallas Skinner! They look so happy together and I am so happy for them! Everything turned out so well! I didn't take really any pictures except for one of me and Lexi.
I moved back up to Flagstaff week after the wedding and have been doing fun stuff up here with Adam Langford including: reading, swinging, going to the park, going hiking, going to Jerome, figuring out school stuff, etc. Me and Adam hiked up Mt. Elden and had tons of fun doing it! This is a picture of us on the mountain showing the view that we had of Flagstaff. It was amazing!
We also took a trip to Jerome, a little old mining/ghost town near Sedona and Cottonwood. We hiked and crawled through a cave and then walked around the shops that they have there. It was cool to see everything there!
The book that I have been reading is The Grapes of Wrath, by John Steinbeck. It's during the dust bowl and follows a family that moves to California to find a better life. I'm not done, but it's been really good so far! I recommend it to everyone!
I've also been looking at violas to buy a new one for my new and improved skills that I have learned in college. It is so much fun being able to play with different insturments and get a feel for what I like and don't like and stuff.
So that's been my life. Nothing too exciting, but definately having fun! School starts back up in the next couple of weeks. Another semester....... bring it on!!!
