My name is now Mandy Bingham- used to be Anderson. I'm still getting used to saying and signing it, but it's worth getting used to because I took it from my now-husband Bryant. :) Now that I'm married, I've decided to join the trend of starting a blog. I'm hoping this blog will be interesting since it isn't only about me but about my husband as well. If you haven't been able to figure out the URL (as you probably have, but just in case you haven't), I decided that, since Bry and I both have a "y" at the end of our name (at least, he does at the end of his nickname), I would combine our names by the "y"s which also seemed fitting since we met at the Y (Brigham Young University- Provo). So I flipped my name around since "Mandyrb" seemed weirder than "Brydnam" which is pronounced "bride-nam" with a short "d" sound and a bit of emphasis on the "n" and "nam" sounding like "ham" but with an n. That's probably more explanation than you needed, but just so that we're clear on this name that isn't likely to be vocalized anyway unless you ask me in person how I decided it should be said.
Hopefully you like this blog. If not, don't read it. For the first real post (I consider this post to be a pre-post/introductory post to actual posts), I'm hoping to type up the story of how Bry and I met- seeing as our names are the title of this blog, I figured it would be fitting. :)
