ENGAGEMENT PICTURES

THESE ARE A FEW OF OUR FAVORITES AND THE ONES WE WILL DISPLAY AND/OR PUT ON THE INVITATIONS

skirts

Joseph and I had 45 minutes until the mall closed and we found the bridesmaid skirts and an undershirt for me to wear in our engagement pictures. Here is the skirt. We are going to put nice white shirts with it that won't be the exact same for everyone. We haven't bought those yet so i'll let you know but what do you think melissa and lisa?

Wedding Plans for the end of May

This past week has been a productive one. Last week I found an apartment on the internet that was just in Spanish Fork so I thought Joseph and I could just go look after work. Well we went to this basement apartment that is on 100 E 262 N behind Zions Bank. It is owned by a young couple with a 2yr old and another on the way that lives upstairs and they completed the apt. themselves. So it has new tile, carpet, cabinets and it was only previously rented once for about 9 months. We told them that we are getting married in August but would be willing to begin paying in July and move things in before the wedding. They told us that they wanted someone for June but to call them back. Well we came home and I just couldn't stop thinking about it. So i called up the guy and he had me sent in a rental application and I just had to wait. (ahhh) Well after a long, impatient weekend I called him today and he said he was deiciding between us and another couple so we were worried. But we got the call tonight and we got that place!!! whoohoo! I'm going tomorrow and I'll post a picture.

Did i mention the front door is red? We also got red, square plates to match the kitchen you see when you walk in. They were 40% off at ShopKo so we got a steal. Friday, Mom and I went up to Sandy and found a dress!!! What a relief! It is just a juli dress. It has beadwork at the top and a kind of wrap called rouging that is pretty and 3 big flowers on the hip. I love it! It is so nice to have that part done. You'll have to wait for a picture of the dress though.

Tonight marked 3 years since Joseph and I first kissed and got together. :) We went over and ate at the mall and then went to RC Willey with Mom and picked out a couch. We got this microfiber one and I attached a picture but it actually is a little bit darker than this picture. Plans were a little slow to get going but they are taken off this week so that is nice. That's all for now, I'll keep you updated.

birthday

P.S. it's my birthday and the best day of the year so don't forget! and enjoy it!

Arizona

Arizona is HOT! Joseph's grandma passed away last week so we drove down for the funeral. It is also a long drive down there. Luckily Joseph agrees that a constant 102 is too hot. Especially if you don't have a pool. It was good to meet his dad's side of the family and I'm glad I went. The funeral was really nice. We stayed with his cousin that met a Muslim guy from Jordan (Mohammad, go figure) that she met in Italy. We had a Jordanian dish the first night that was actually pretty good. We also visited his cousin Dave that is a dentist and lives in a million-dollar home including fountain in the front courtyard, pool, huge kitchen, theater room where we watched the jazz game, and guest house. After spending the weekend, everyone asks if I still want to marry Joseph (i don't know why) and the answer is a clearer yes than before!

This is one of the homes in the million-dollar home neighborhood his cousin lives in. I know it's fuzzy but it's through the car window.

anson, aidan, brett, joseph, and myself.

i'll give you one guess who did aidan's hair...

This hot tub flowed into the pool, it was SO nice! Seriously it was like an amazing Parade of Homes house.

I'm so looking forward to engagement and wedding pictures.....

working

working full time means you don't miss any of the fun. I have gained the reputation of being the party planner. Here is our Cinco de Mayo party. Unfortunately Walmart was out of pinatas so i improvised. We also burned a bunch of old records out by West Mountain so I got to go and be a witness that everything burned properly. ;) ha ha, i do a lot of work, don't worry but I also do something new at my job everyday.
