Announcement Collage

This is our engagement pictures collage that Jared put together along with the beautiful wedding announcement that my mother made to send out to everyone. I am so lucky to have such a computer-savy man that put this together that I absolutely LOVE! Of course I couldn't help him much (ok I'll be honest...couldn't help him at all!) because unlike him I am pretty much computer-challenged! But I was able to direct him in what pictures I liked and the color scheme...the frilly girly stuff that probably prolonged it being done.

Quick 10 second overview

1) Jared and I met December 22nd 2005 in Byron Killpack's dental office and had our first date later that night

2) We had a long distance relationship until later that April 2006 where we made a decision that I needed to move back to Laramie because we wanted to spend every moment together and didn't want to be apart!

3) Jared proposed later on that month and we made a decision to get married in June and on the 22nd to signify the 22nd of December (the first day we met)!

Jared and I decided to get married in the Salt Lake Temple (because we had had several dates in Salt Lake walking around Temple Square and we both thought it was a gorgeous temple) June 22nd, 2006. Our excitement was immeasurable and could not wait to get married and start our lives together!

Engagement Pictures 2006

This is a slideshow/video that Jared put together for our reception involving all of our engagement pictures. My lovely sisters Stephanie and Alayna, as well as my wonderful momma Tammy took all of these awesome pictures that really brought our playful and fun personalities! Jared and I had so much fun figuring out endless poses for the camera and kind of got off track with our silliness and crazy faces. Jared is definetly not a fan of PDA(public display of affection) so it was a little uncomfortable for him smooching me, especially in front of his mother-in-law but he was a trooper and let loose! Oh back in the day when you are in lovers land and everything seems to be absolutely centered around eachother! Now looking back you miss it and laugh at it the same time because in the moment you would NEVER think the other person could be anything but perfect! Although our lives would be far from perfect we would still have so much fun together and find that our love would grow deeper and deeper each day.
