Curtis Burnett is a true Renaissance Man. He is a reknown author of the book "Eve's Warriors and the Three Nephites", which is now available on Amazon. And yet, there is so much more to this man! He once, as a reporter with the Deseret News, did a personal interview with President Nixon while aboard Air Force One! (Seriously, I'll let him tell the story!) He also has served as Vice President at Questar, News Director for a US Senator, former Chair of the Utah Food Bank, Public Relations head, and is newly adding Horsemanship to his extensive resume! Curtis is the proud father of 7 beloved children, and 17 adorable grandchildren.

Curtis calls her an Also Renaissance Woman, which is why they are a perfect match! Stacylyn worked as a professional Opera Singer in NYC and Europe; and is now a working Film Actress and All Around Entertainer. She once bragged the ability to hold her breath through the Chesapeake Channel (Tunnel)... but isn't sure she can still do that now. She has most recently starred in several films: ASHES (starring opposite James Duval) which is not released yet; and CITY OF SALT (winner of 27 awards nationally and internationally) which is currently available to viewers on Amazon Prime.

Actually, we first "met" over the phone. Curtis was having lunch with Michael Flynn when Michael called me and asked me if he could introduce me to his best friend. I said I wouldn't mind, so he put Curtis on the phone. After a brief and delightful chat, we promised to meet up for dinner in a few days time. That first date took place at the Foundry Grill.

He made the first move when asked his best friend to set us up. A few days later, we had plans for dinner that week.

Whoever happens to be closer to the trash! Although technically, Curtis promised to do it. :-)

April 8th, 2021 - Hahaha, that's when he took me hiking to Arches National Park. I particularly loved the Garden of Eden where Curtis got down on a knee and proposed to me. We had also met up with my sister Angie who was hiking there with her family - Kaitlynn, Kamryn, & Kamryn's best friend Beth. They knew ahead of time and filmed everything... thank you Angie!!! Afterwards we hiked up to Delicate Arch and took some amazing photos. Favs were all of us jumping for joy while under the Delicate Arch, and also our dancing photo after scaling a sheer wall to pose in a cave in the wall. BEST PHOTOS EVER!

Watching movies, nature hikes, horseback riding, and pontificating on exact meanings in the American lexicon.

Curtis and I aim to make each other's dreams come true, starting with a few days in beautiful Park City, and then an exciting week at the C Lazy U Ranch where we get paired with our own horses and ride all over the Colorado mountains. I can't tell you how excited we are!!! Hawaii can be for next year. :-D

Hahaha, gotta say it was dinner at The Foundry - Sundance Summer Resort. The food was crazy good, and the atmosphere was just magical. Highly recommended!

Spending Valentine's Day in St George at the Red Mountain Resort. I was uncomfortable with the idea of traveling with someone I was dating, so he got us 2 separate suites at the resort... and picked me up like a date all beautiful weekend long. The red rocks, the beautiful nature, and horseback riding in the mountains. Dinners with local friends, and then a perfect spa day to sort out the sore muscles. Really, my best Valentines ever!

We are on the same page about so many things! But what's important to us is: spending time with our extended family, and all the people we love most. (You all!)

Create an album of beautifully arranged Mormon hymns.

Make a film that Curtis writes, based on ... well, you'll see!

Working with love to continually bless our families, friends, & community.

Um, getting married?! Hahaha!

We love vocabulary and speech! We had an entire discussion for hours on the subject of what is the difference between Quandary, Conundrum, and Dilemma. Turns out, a Quandary is when you have multiple choices to choose from. A Conundrum is when one must puzzle out the choices. A Dilemma is when there are absolutely no good choices... all the choices are terrible ones. So we can now say with confidence that choosing a good new home was a Quandary, planning the wedding was a Conundrum, and voting in the election was a Dilemma.

Honoring warrior women, supporting and giving love to our LGBTQ neighbors, taking care of our US Veterans, and finding good solid homes for orphans.

"Come Follow Me" program (Sundays with family). Also seeking new adventures and embracing them!

How to garden. We have a yard now, and I'm terrified I'm going to look at the plants and they won't survive me.

We want to find a good way to help others and spread joy. Plans pending...
