Sadly for you all, I did not take a video camera to church today, and even if I had, it would not have done justice at all to Heather. She sang a beautiful solo for Sacrament meeting today. The song is called "Greater Love" (thanks, Sarena, for providing the music). And for those who have not heard Heather sing before, she has an incredible voice. In fact, everyone that we saw in church afterward commented on how well she sang. She was such a big hit that in Sunday School, people said that she sounded like Belle from Beauty and the Beast (we weren't in Sunday School since our calling is in the Primary, but other people told us afterward). Now I think this is a very fitting comment in many respects--Heather is not only gorgeous and very intelligent, but she also has a voice that even the best songbirds envy. I've always thought I make a decent Beast, too. Just ask Mom about my stubborn streak or Alyson about my hairy chest--all very beast-esque. Anyway, I'm just thrilled about being married to a real-life Disney Princess!
As for the pictures, some of you might know how Heather has been searching for a cute belt like this for quite some time. Last spring while we were taking a short vacation in Chicago with Heather's parents, she finally found one. Since then, she's been on a very diligent hunt to find appropriate outfits and shirts that would go well with the belt. Finally, a few weekends ago, we found a few. So we just wanted to show you at least one of the matching outfits and say thanks for all your help and prayers; it obviously payed off!

Great Belt! Heather, maybe you should start looking for a beautiful off the shoulder yellow ball gown to go with the Belle likeness! I am sure you could work it into your classroom somehow!
Ahhhh....I can't believe I have not heard you sing! What kind of sister in law am I? Well, next time you can sing a solo for me in your living room. I do love your belt too. And yes Todd, your chest hair definitely rivals a disney villain. SICK!
Hi Todd--this is a totally random comment, but some how I found a link to your blog while looking at another friends blog. Anyways, just wanted to give a shout out and say hi. I had no idea you were married...CONGRATS...we've been married 7 1/2 years now and have three kiddos. Would love to hear from you. Angie (Todd) Miller
You look absolutely adorable and very stylish. I love the color on you...Wish we could have heard you sing on Sunday. You do have a beautiful voice :)
I'm thinking that Heather should just start preparing now to sing for us in Nauvoo this summer. We definitely need to take advantage of having a real live Belle in our midst! Cute belt!
you're so dang cute, Heather!!
Ooh, Heather, I love it! It was definitely worth all the searching!
So, I am a huge fan of having other people link blogs to other people, because even though we are long gone from your physical life - i.e. we moved from the BYU 103rd(?) ward with Bishop Adams to SLC just before having our crazy baby, we can still find you because the Van Dukers linked to the Olsens who linked to the Gibsons who linked to you. Wow. Whoodda thought. Anyway, this is Amanda W, of Matt and Amanda fame graduated from law school hugely pregnant at the time. Follow that train of blogs back and you should find a link to us and then a link to our crazy kid.
Okay. That's long enough. Glad you found outfits to match the belt and we always loved having you in our choir. It saved us.
