I can only imagine how much dirt must have been stuck to those suckers that the kids are eating haha.

My parents

Marilyn Monroe style here. We were standing over a huge fan at the temple and it made for some really cute pictures!

The Provo Trio. Kendra and I have been friends since elementary school and Savannah is my cousin who I grew up best friends with. The three of us lived in Provo together a few years ago and made so many memories. Now we are all married and "grown up" :).

Danny did all the iron work! He made this cinderella carriage cake stand, the center peieces, plate stands, archway and panels. He is amazing! (he rents his stuff out so if anyone is interested, let me know :)

This picture is priceless! How many men does it take to hook up a train? Haha, I love it!

The first dance. My dad sang our song while we danced. It was really neat!Throwing the bouquetTara and I

Special thanks to my photographer and good friend, Tara. :). Thank you so much! You did an amazing job. I am so happy I have good pictures to capture all the memories.

Ok, so I have spent several hours working on a blog for me and Danny and I FINALLY got it done!! So please check it out... go to www.maytherebelove.blogspot.com. Sorry for not blogging lately... life is CRAZY! As of now, I don't have a free day until June 17th. So things are a little crazy but good! After the wedding, I will be a faithful blogger again. Love you all! Jess

Ok so the wedding plans are going great! Me and my mom have been having so much fun! At first I was really stressed out about all the planning but now that it is getting closer and things are coming together, I am getting really excited! The reception will be in my parents backyard and the colors are black, white, and pink! We are going with a fun, summer theme. Dannys is so good... he just kinda sits back and lets us plan. The big day is June 27th!! YAY! My little brother, Travis comes home from his mission on June 26th so he is literally coming home to a wedding. I got my dress a couple weeks ago and I LOVE it!! I go in for my final fitting tomorrow and hopefully the seamstress did everything right so that I can get it drycleaned and ready for my bridal pictures next Sat. (whew!) My wonderful friend Tara is doing all our pictures which I am WAY excited about! She does such a good job and she is one of my best-est friends. Next week she is doing our engagement and bridal shots in Midway which I am excited about! (I will take any reason I can to go to Midway). Once we get our pictures, I will finally put some up of me and him :). Ok so the real reason I am posting this is because I need your address... (if you are in my ward then I've already got it). Please please please reply with your address :). If you don't want to put it on here where everyone can read it, you can text it to me @ 702-286-7993 or email it to jessicajkt@hotmail.com I will keep you all posted on all the plans and I will have pictures up soon :)

Say hello to the future Mrs. Jessica May! Danny and I are officially engaged!!! Danny is the most amazing guy! He is so sweet and so good to me! The way he proposed was just like something you would see in a movie. He put so much work and thought in to it. I just have to share it with everyone…

I came home from work yesterday and I was rushing to grab something to eat and do a few things before my visiting teachers came over. They got to my house a little bit late so they visited and as soon as they left, I was rushing out the door to get to my Young Womens presidency meeting that started right before mutual (crazy). So as I was on my way to the church, I called Danny because he had called while my visiting teachers were there plus I wanted to talk to him for a sec because I hadn’t talked to him all day. So Danny tells me that he won’t be coming over after mutual because he is going to Vegas to play in a softball game. He told me to leave my door unlocked because he had made me something and wanted to drop it off on his way to Vegas. Danny does amazing iron work so I figured he had made me a candle holder or something for my house…

I went to my meeting and mutual and it got over at about 8:00 so as soon as it was over, I called Danny to see how his game went. He said that he had just got done with the first game and had a few minutes before the second games starts. We talked for a couple minutes, and right as I was pulling up to my house, he said he had to go because the second game was about to start. So I pull up to my house and walk in my front door and I will never forget that moment….

The first thing I noticed were red rose pedals scattered all over my floor. All the lights were off but the entire room was lit up with candles that were on beautiful candle holders that he had made. Our song, Your Everything by Keith Urban, was playing really softly and all the sudden Danny walks out from my room and asks me to dance…. Awww!! So we danced to our song with rose pedals on the ground, surrounded my candlelight. When the song was over, he gave me a long stemmed rose, got on one knee, gave me a beautiful ring and asked me to marry him! I, in tears of total happiness said YES!

Everything about last night was absolutely perfect! It was a setting that you would see on TV. He is so amazing and made me feel so special! I love him so much and I can’t wait to be his wife! I never thought things would move this fast but it feels so right and I know without a doubt that he is the one for me!

Yesterday was the best day of my life so far...

Ok so I just read Trisha’s newest post and it totally inspired me to put up a new post as more of a journal entry rather than putting some pictures up of what I did last weekend… I love journals and I used to be so good at writing in mine but over the past couple years I have really been slacking at it. SO, being that I am a very open person and have no problem letting everyone know what I am up to, I decided to start typing… First of all, in response to my post a few weeks ago Ladies Put Your Heads Together, I just want to thank everyone haha. When I posted that, I had just gotten out of a relationship with someone that I fell way too hard for, way too fast and things didn’t work out the way I had hoped (or I thought I hoped)… I was sad at first but now I realize that it was meant to be and things couldn’t have worked out better! A couple weeks after the break-up, I had gone on quite a few dates but was feeling a little frustrated and feeling like I was trapped in Moapa… that night I decided that I just need to have fun and take care of myself, enjoy life and know that someone will come along, probably when I least expect it. The very next day I get a call from Danny, I’m sure you all know who Danny is but I won’t say his last name for his own sake haha. Anyways, I knew him from school but he is 3 years older than me so I had never talked to him or anything until he called me that day. We went out on a Thursday and then again on Friday and then the following Sunday... To make a long story short, we have hung out just about every day since that first date and I’m crazy about him! He is so sweet and he has so many good qualities! The other day, he rode in my truck and he could tell that I needed new brake pads so the next day, he called me on his way to Vegas to find out what year my truck was because he wanted to stop and pick me up some brake pads. He also said he could change them for me so yesterday he gave me HIS truck to drive (his truck is WAY nicer than mine and I couldn’t believe that he trusted me to drive it) so I had his truck for the day and he had mine but when he started looking at my truck, he realized that I had let my brake pads go too long and because of that, I needed a new rotor also so he drove all the way to Mesquite (giving me a lecture on the way) to get me a new rotor, came home and switched everything out. Poor guy spent pretty much his whole day fixing my truck for me. He was so sweet about it though and seemed happy to help me out. He came over to my parents’ house for their anniversary party yesterday and my family totally loves him, especially Kyle who is the hardest to impress! Kade (my 4 yr old nephew) gets a little jealous when I bring someone around or when I talk about dating so last night, my family and Danny and I are sitting around at the dinner table and it must have been driving Kade nuts not to know if Danny was just my friend or my boyfriend or what so all the sudden he said really loud and energetic “raise you’re hand if you have a boyfriend!”. I was dying laughing! He wanted to find out one way or another what our status was so he figured that would be a good way to get to the bottom of it haha. So anyways, things are going really good there… we’ll see where it goes. I was telling Emily the other day that I feel like I have really found myself in the past year. I am a totally different person than I used to be! I know who I am and what is important in life, I know what I want and I have total confidence in myself. Being in Young Womens has helped me so much and made me so much stronger! I have grown to love the girls so much and knowing that I have to be an example to them and that they look up to me just means so much and totally keeps me in line! I love my life and I am so happy that I have been able to grow and learn who I really am! This post is kind of random and very long but I just wanted to share what is new with me and express some of my feelings… thanks for reading J
