Well I figured it was about time I updated this blog. In May of this year I was promoted to General Manager at the Hampton Inn. Perfect timing after graduating with my Bachelors in Hotel, Resort and Hospitality Management. So far it has been the most amazing job and I feel so lucky to have it. Hilton requires a certain amount of training before I became an official GM so I got to travel a ton this summer. My biggest trips were to Memphis, TN and Orlando, FL. I went to Orlando in October and had the most amazing weather. It was a 5 day conference on new things for the brand and how to be the best leader I can be. I met a ton of amazing people including Marcus Buckingham!! They also closed down Sea World for us and had incorporated "Hampton" things throughout the park. It was such a fun week - the only thing that was missing was Derek : (. He surprised my by painting my wall purple - something I had been longing for for a while now and I just love it.
My husband and I (Derek & Dana) were typing into our own blog derekanddana.blogspot.com and stumbled across yours by accident and laughed when we discovered you were LDS because we are too! We enjoyed looking at your blog! We hope you have a great day!
We started dating in May of 2006, right as Derek got home from his mission and I was graduating High School. His sister set us up on our first date. After that we hung out EVERY DAY! On August 25th, we went up to the cabin with our families for dinner. Derek and I saddled up the horses and went for a ride. We came to a tree with a rose hanging from it. Tied to the rose was my ring. He asked me to marry him and of course I said yes and we were married for time and all eternity in the Temple on November 24, 2006. It all happened really quick, but we knew we were meant to be.
