VISIT MY NEW BLOG!!

I made a new blog for Mike and me. It is mikeandshi.blogspot.com! So visit that one, it is the only one I update!! Thanks for visiting!

The Temple

We had the most amazing experience at the temple! I was so blessed to be able to have my Sweetheart there along with our parents and grandparents. It was such a big step in my life and I am so excited for what the future holds. Garments are taking some getting use to but I know I will come to love them soon!!

Bridal Showers!

I have attended many upon many bridal showers, they are always wonderful to say the least. But when it is your own shower there is an excitement and happiness that comes along. How fun is it really to open up a set of pots or cookie sheets? Not really fun at all, but when it is your very FIRST set of cooking materials and all the thoughts of future meals with your soon to be hubby come to mind, there is nothing but smiles! I received very generous gifts from loving people. It was a wonderful experience, one that will come only once in a lifetime and there is no one I would rather share it with than My Mikey. We are just as giddy as can be with our knife's, picture frames, and candlesticks! I know that our love will only deepen with time, I also pray that my cooking with get ALOT better with time as well, ok lets be honest, I hope I start cooking with time ha ha jk!

A special thanks to my wonderful Aunts and Grandmother, and also my dear friends Hayden and McKenzie for throwing me beautiful showers. I am truly honored and grateful!

Fiesta Days!

Oh the Fiesta Days in Spanish Fork have a special place in my heart!! I love being around family, eating in the park, and watching fire works!! This year was extra special because I was able to spend it with Mike!! I can't wait for the many more 24th of July's to come!!

Rodeo! YEE-HAW!

Tonight was wonderful!! We were able to attend the Rodeo in Spanish Fork!! It was so much fun, for so long I was selling stuff in the stands for cheer - it was so nice to sit back and enjoy the show!! We put on our wonderful cowboy boots and had a heck of a time!

Labor of LOVE!!

Now it feels like HOME!!

Well today has been a very eventful day! It was full of hardwork and it required getting dirty! I suprised Mikey by planting lots of flowers and making the yard look presentable for his sweet sister Aly!! Her family is coming to visit tomorrow and we are just thrilled! The yard turned out perfect and he loved every bit of it. It was well worth the sweat and labor!! I hope Mama Susan is proud of my gardening skills! (: I want to thank my sweet Grandmother and Mother, they helped pick and plant the flowers. Also I would like to thank my Daddy and brother in law Danny - they brought in mounds of dirt so that my little flowers would survive! It was a beautiful day and I am so grateful for everyones help, love, and support!

Amanda's Shower

Meg put on a wonderful Bridal Shower for our friend Amanda! I wish her all the happiness and love that life has to offer! It has been a GREAT year for all three of us, may we forever stay close friends!

No longer a TEEN!

We had a wonderful Sunday dinner to celebrate with my parents, sisters, and grandparents!

I had a great lunch with some close friends!

And of course Mikey took me out on my real Birthday! We reenacted our first date, I absolutely loved it!

It was my Birthday this past weekend! I am now 20, I believe Mikey likes the sound of that better! (: I had a wonderful Birthday, and I felt very very loved!! My favorite present came from my Sweetheart of course - he gave me a new set of scriptures with "Mrs. Shiann Hancock" engraved along with a cute scripture case. It was a good feeling to read my new name on them! I am so grateful for the past year and where it has led me, I look forward to this next year as well - I believe it will be one of the best!! Thank you to everyone for their caring words on my Birthday!! XOXO

Hancock Manor

We found the perfect little house to start out lives in!! It is located in North Orem and it has everything we could have wanted!! We hope to make it our own and we can't wait for all of ya'll to come visit!

Sunday Best!

We just snapped a pic before church, all dressed up and ready to go! Isn't my Sweetheart HANDSOME!!

Lake Powell!!

Mikey and I have not stopped for the past two weeks! After North Carolina, we went to LAKE POWELL!! It was a blast! We slept under the stars, swam for hours and of course kicked everyones trash in cards! Mikey and I are a FORCE to be reckoned with! It was a lot of fun but it is nice to be home, safe and sound! My niece Gabby formed a crush on my future hubby! Not only did he steal my heart but he also stole hers!! She even put the moves on him by holding his hand!! I think I can share since she is only 5 years old!! I love her so much along with my sweetheart!

My Future Hubby!!

Aly (Mike's Sister) took pictures of us on the beach! She does beautiful work and we had so much fun too! The wind was horrible and the humidity killed me but it was worth it! Mikey was making me laugh hysterically! I love these pic's and I am so grateful for Aly! We miss you!

My TRIP to NC!!

I just got back from North Carolina! I went to pick up my Sweetheart! We had fun on the beach and loved visiting with the family!! I adore his family and I can't wait to begin my life with him!!
