Hi, everyone! I'm Brittany Hansen!
I was married in May but still feel the tingles of new last name and am absolutely loving it! Spencer and I met at a piano lesson one day when I was around the age of eleven- or twelve-years-old.
He was wearing a hideous pair of pajama bottoms and his dad's suit coat. Fast forward a couple years and we were completely covered in dirt on our stake pioneer trek. I was asked to bear my testimony and next thing you know, this Spencer kid likes me. Turns out he was cute and when I hit sixteen, we dated and dated and dated. And then he served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on the beautiful southeastern coast of Brazil and then he came home.
Can you tell that I love this story?
I also love hiking and the outdoors. I'm convinced that camping grounds people, literally and figuratively. I've played piano and violin ever since I can remember and thoroughly enjoyed my position at church as the primary pianist. I love literature. I am the reader that can find joy in just about any piece- which is why I have been really anxious to read Moby-Dick! Reading brings me home no matter where I am and I can't wait to participate in conversations that broaden our thinking and understanding of literature and its connection to the past and present.
