Rhiannon Saxey was born and raised in Phoenix, AZ, but would love to live in Portland or Hawaii someday. She loves Mexican food and frozen yogurt. She likes healthy stuff too! Rhiannon enjoys practicing yoga, working out, scrapbooking, crafting, shopping, decorating and garderning.
When I asked Rhiannon about her most embarrassing moment, she replied, “I was too old to be trying to swing in a baby swing, but I tried anyways. I had to have been in 4th or 5th grade. I got stuck. My mom tried balling up on the ground under the swing so I could step on her back to try and get out. I was really starting to freak out when she suggested calling the local firemen to cut me out of the swing. I kept hoping that no one I knew would show up at the park. We finally worked me out after a few minutes. I was a smart kid, hehe!”
Rhiannon has a few associates degrees and is currently working towards her bachelors. She has a huge heart and a strong desire to help others. She would like to become involved in charities and humanitarian efforts. Her dream is to be a great mother who has a positive spiritual influence on her children and future generations. She says, “I want to be a wonderful wife and companion to my husband because he is incredible and deserves the best.”
Lana Dalton was born and raised in Mesa, AZ. She has six brothers and one twin sister. She also has 3 children: Rachel (30), Emily (27) and David (20). She loves being with her family – especially when they are all together at the same time! The hardest thing she says she’s ever done is send her only son on a mission. “Not because he went on a mission, but that I had to be separated from him for so long. That first week was awful! Now, of course, I wouldn’t have it any other way,” she says.
Lana enjoys composing music, singing, watching movies and eating Italian food. While attending BYU, Lana was a part of a performing group called Sunshine Express and traveled to Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, Thailand and other places in the South Pacific. She would someday like to write a song that wins the church music contest or have a piece performed by a choir. When Lana was 53, after being very ill, she went back to school and earned her Master's degree! She is proud to have achieved this very difficult, but worthwile goal.
