My Challenge Continues...
Yes i am still here and doing my challenge. I am starting a new one soon. But, I will keep this same blog address. Anyhow i have been inspired the last few days while watching the revolution. You know what show i am talking about. While watching yesterday i was really inspired by this sweet girl who about a few months before her birthday she decided to start her "REVOLUTION!!" this girl has always been there for others and has not taken time to care for herself. But, she was making changes. She made her a goal to by her 30th birthday she wanted to be under 200 pounds. And she made it... I am going to do the same... I AM STARTING A "REVOLUTION!!" of sorts. really it's for more than one reason. 2 reasons mainly is as follows: 1. I want to be in better shape and feel so much better about myself. And just to be and FEEL HOT!! AND SEXY!!! and 2. Now that Bryan and I are married... we really want to start trying and start and have a family of our own. I want to be as healthy as possible so when/if i get pregnant. I won't have struggles and issues of being able to carry a pregnancy and child because of weight problems. My goal by next summer is to be under 150!!! that gives me a whole year. I figure it's not a tremendous amount of weight to loose. It's only maybe 30 pounds. Wish me luck... comments, encouragement, advice is appreciated thanks!

2 WEEK ANNIVERSARY.....
2 Weeks ago today.... All my dreams came true and I married my best friend and the love of my life. Bryan makes me so very happy. Also very loved, secure. I know how much i mean to him and how much and deeply he loves me. And it's the same from me to him. These past two weeks have been the best of my life. It is still different for me to think and know and realize when i wake up in the morning and just still weird and different (in a good way) to know that "Wow, i'm someone's wife!" It is such a good feeling.
Marriage is such a blessing... I look forward to many more years and eternity of having the stuggles, trials, joy and everything that brings about all the blessings of marriage.
I can't wait till the day we go and kneel across from eachother as husband and wife across the sacred Altar in the temple (house of the lord) and get married forever (having our sealing and temple wedding and marriage). And for that new beggining.
Marriage is and will be alot of work and will have alot of up's and down's and such but, it will be all worth it and is all worth it. It will only make us stronger and grow as a couple, individually and as a family. I can't wait to begin our eternal family. I look forward to all the blessings and everything marriage brings.
Happy 2 week anniversary Sweetheart! I love you...

Being Married to Bryan.... my best friend, the love of my life...
Bryan and I have been married almost 2 weeks... Will be 2 weeks this coming Saturday. We got married June 9th, 2012.
We just got back from Utah and our honeymoon and from getting married on Sunday (Father's day!) We are still settling into married life and getting used to being married. And in this almost 2 weeks of being married he continues to amaze me. And he continues to teach me so much and shows by words and actions how precious i am to him, how much he loves me and such.
What he has taught me so far since we got married... We went swimming last wednesday (a week ago almost) and well since i do not know how to swim and not to comfortable with water so much. I was real uneasy and scared to go down the water slide and into "to deep" of water.
Bryan being the wonderful person and husband he is... he was/is very paitent with me and said among other things "Baby, don't let the water control you... you control the water." "your going to be fine and your not going to drown." and things like that. he stated he would work with e and teach me to swim. And then did some basic exercises with me and showed me it's not scary and it's okay to go down the water slide and such. And after a little while i went down the water slide a couple of times and upon doing that he expressed how proud of me he was/is.
He taught me that it's Okay to be afraid but, that there is nothing to fear (at the same time)and teaches that he will help and be there with me and help and protect me. And shows again just how much he loves me. I look forward to all the examples of love (genuine and sincere LOVE) he will show and give me and all the things he will teach me. I Love you HONEY!!

Our Wedding... Introducing Mr. & Mrs. Bryan Walls
Bryan and I got married this last Saturday June 9, 2012. In my parents' ward house. The ward house and ward i grew up in. We will be going to be sealed for time and all eternity in about 1 year or so.
Bryan and i met online as a result of a free communication weekend and event on eharmony a year ago memorial day (around there). We started communicating and by the 2nd or 1st email in our free communication weekend or maybe after (as we had to go through the communication getting to know eachother and answering those questions etc.)
We both did not want to pay to communicate after the free event. We exchanged email addresses, phone numbers, friended eachother on facebook., by the 2nd email one night i was randomly on the computer talking to him and on youtube listening to country kind of songs and something went off in my head and i had the thought and said "I want to marry him (this guy!)
he was going to come up on the 4th of July weekend but, couldn't get off work. He had his vacation scheduled for the first weekend of august for a week. He left Texas on the evening of the 5th of August and arrived the night of the 6th (it's a 24 hour drive - longer because of stopping and resting etc.), we went to church on the 7th of August and had Jared and Lindsay and the girls over for lunch and to meet him. He got to meet Dakota the next day on the 8th as Dakota was at his mother's house. We also just "Hung out!" that day and was at the mall and started looking at rings- tried a few on., and just had fun. I got "Dolled up!" (got my hair done, we went out to eat and all that. He takes very good care of me. I Love him so much! i know he loves me so much.
On the 9th we hung out more.... went to the movies at Valley Fair Mall and after he's like "Let's go to the great salt lake!" we went out there and was walking around. walking on the sand and in the water. As we were walking we stopped for a minute. Not thinking anything of it. He then says "I'm fixen to do something... still not clicking in my head and i'm still not thinking anything of it... I was looking at the moon and the pretty sunset." I turn back around and when i did he was on one knee and the following was said "Heidi Gail Richhart will you marry me ?" Of course i said YES!!
I got to show him off to meet most of my extended family at our family reunion about 3 days later on that friday and weekend.
We have been through so much together. I came home on May 23rd, 2012 ahead of Bryan to be here as a result of my mother being involved in a major and serious car accident on May 15th, 2012.
Anyhow i was without Bryan for 2 weeks... The longest 2 weeks of my life. But, he arrived on the 6th - actually the 7th (last thursday) at 2:00 AM - we went to get our marriage license on the 7th & had our couples bridal shower that night, had a dinner for family and close friends we had about 20 people there., and then the wedding and reception on the 9th.
We got married at 2:30 PM we are greatful for all the people who came and for their love and support. We had approximately 70 people (if not more) at the ceremony and then we had the reception. We had so much fun and we had tons of people tell us how beautiful it was and how much fun they had. My bridal party and the groomsman were all wonderful. Very close friends. The processional was awesome.
I will post pictures taken later but, want to post one of the pictures our photographer took.
We were so blessed with this wedding... we had so much help!!! Thanks to my Uncle Paul, Aunt Cindy, my cousin Alyssa and her boyfriend Logan, my brother Jared and his wife, My uncle Larry and Aunt Susan - Aunt Susan who made me my beautiful bouquet and boutineers also the flowers for the bridesmaids., and for help decorating and setting up., My Awesome Friend Dede for making us our wedding cake, my friend Sam for being our DJ, my cousin Jodi for also providing greenery and additional flowers, and friends who helped at the reception and in the kitchen. My wonderful husband for making the dinner the night before., Austyn (my friend Leah's little girl) for being our ring bearer., She did a wonderful job. My niece Kayla for being the flower girl. All the services provided to us as a wedding gift such as the wedding cake, DJ services, Bridal bouquet and boutineers etc. And for everyone who came for their love and support and for all the gifts and generosity. Without you all and your love and support this day would not have been possible.
