Week 1 of our engagement!
So pretty much I LOVE having a ring on my finger. Bruce chuckles every time he catches me inspecting it. I love it! We went to the fair on Saturday and some lady cleaned it for me and it was even MORE shinny then it already was! CRAZY!
It seems like each day this week something has hit me that i didn't realize. I'm getting married, which means bruce will be the boy who i live with for the rest of forever! Bruce and I are the ones who have to make choices about living arrangements and schooling and kids. There is SO much that goes along with marriage, which i knew about, i just didn't really think much about it. Being engaged has opened my eyes to a whole new world and i LOVE IT!
Yesterday my radiator got a crack in it. Of course I called upon my MR. fix anything fiance and he walked me through what to do.
That day my power also went out in my apartment. I was a tad stressed and sad(i was suppose to coach soccer this season but with the car being dead i couldn't make it to my coachs meeting) so by the time we went to get my car when Bruce got of work i was already in tears.
My oh so amazing bruce says to me while we are driving to kick up my car, with me complaining and whining about my day, (big smile on his face) "hey honey, guess what?! This is our 1st car problem as an ENGAGED couple!!" (Even bigger smile) I just looked at him and thought, really?!!?!?! and said "yeah the first of many!" I was in a bad mood but i LOVED that he was excited about it. Its not like he hasn't fixed my car before but we are now ENGAGED so it makes it that much better that he's fixing my car! I LOVE HIM!!! He is so cute!
He has grabbed my hand and showed everyone my ring! I gladly show it off but i love that he is just as excited about it.
We've looked at the calender and as of this week we are looking at June 26, 2010 as our wedding date. FYI this could change a 1000000 times before we set it in stone. We prolly wont pick for sure for sure til next spring but just so everyone can keep their calenders open. Yes, we want to go to San Diego to get married but we also don't want to spend lots of money either. so we are just looking and figuring things out. We have plenty of time to plan and i'm not going to stress too much til it gets closer. For now i'm just going to plan and scheme to see if i can get what i want for the price i want!!!
I love Bruce so much! Every time i look at my ring i get so excited! i know he is my other half and i am oh so grateful that we were able to find each other and make each other happy! Yesterday showed me that even though everything could go wrong and i was upset and in tears and stressed and didn't know what to do, i could turn to bruce wrap my arms around him, cry my tears, then he kisses them away and says thats it time to work and try and fix it all. Even though not everything was fixed i was happy cuz he was right there next me and working on everything right along side of me!!!
Kaci (my 2 year old niece) says it the best! "Krystal marry bruce! " Dance prince forever!"

I'm the future Mrs. Bruce Wayne Balls Jr.
Bruce came over and we had planned on carving pumpkins. We had a contest to see who could carve the best pumpkin. Bruce surprised me by having my ring inside of his pumpkin!!!! My roommate Stephanie was in on it, and was there to take picture of the whole thing! This picture i just looked up at Steph and was like... oh my goodness my ring is in the pumpkin!!!!! i was so surprised! and soooooooo excited!
He sat me down and asked me to marry him! i said YES of course!
Here is telling me how much he loves me and that i'm he best friend!
I kept kissing him. I wasn't making it easy for him to get stuff out. I think i cut him short on a lot of stuff cuz i just kept kissing him!
He's amazing!!!!My mom gave me her original wedding band which I have been in love with since I was little. When she got another band a few years back I told her to hold on to her band for me. When we went up to prescott this last weekend she gave me her band!!! Its perfect! Bruce and i had shopped around for rings but i couldn't find the right one. Then my mom gave me her band and it was EXACTLY what i wanted!!!!!!!!
This was bruces pumpkin!!! He came up with this idea all by himself! He knows how much i lov carving pumpkins and how much i was looking forward to carving them! He is amazing!
Out the spirit of the night (i knew i was getting my ring at some point.. i just didn't know at what point of the night he was going to do it) i carved LOVE into mine! it turned out soo good!

Conference!
I didn't have to work on sat so I went over to the Balls to watch morning and afternoon conference. Bruce and I watched the morning one by ourselves
Then my roommate came over for the second one along with bruces brothers, thomas and Danny
Stephanie was a little hyper. Thomas thought it was would be funny to tape Bruce's ankles to mine with duct tape. Stephanie thought it would be funny to help. Sadly we didn't get a picture of it but it hurt way bad.... for bruce! I had pants on but he was wearing shorts! Poor boy!
On Sunday I have a tradition of making a big breakfast then watching conference. During the second half we make fajitas. Bruce was willing to help me out. My roommate and her boy came along with bruce's family minus the parents since they were in utah.The anniversary of Sputnik is Oct 4th. Marie and Michelle (two of bruce's sisters) both went Idaho for school and every year they celebrated by having a SPUDnik day. They would watch October sky and have a pototo bar. Since conference fell on Oct 4th, for dinner we had a pototo bar and that night we watched October Sky. It was tons of fun! Michelle is an amazing baker and she made us a chocolate raspberry cake and we made 2 kinds of homemade ice cream. We also had noni nut muffins (sambruce's 2 year old nephew calls banana's nonis) They were super yummy!!!
This is Thomas... bruce's little brother. He has long blonde hair and we were being a tad crazy in between conferences and we tried curling his hair. He let me do one strand but wanted to do the rest himself. So he had one curled strand and the rest looked... interesting. lol We had a lot of fun!! I look forward to many more conferences with them!
