Jess and Danny May

Proud to be a Probst

We spent this last weekend at my Uncle Ron's ranch for the Grant and Barbara Probst reunion. Everyone had so much fun and the weather could not have been better! Some of the things we did included....

Petting a baby ponies (3 days old... so cute!)

Playing horse shoes

Getting tipped over in your kayak by your obnovious son

Going off the big swing

Fishing... good job Lydi!

Movie under the stars

Loader rides... (this was actually kinda scary but really fun!)

And most important, spending time with family!

It was so fun! Everyone spent the night except Danny and I. Danny had to work on Saturday so on Friday night we came home and then I drove back up early Saturday morning. I am actually glad that I came home to sleep that night because between the mysterious animal(s) in the atic of the barn (where most people slept) and Lydia's night terror in the middle of the night, it turned out to be a rough night for those who slept in the barn (hehe). Although I was sad that I missed seeing Emily win the hoola-hoop contest!

I love my family and I am "proud to be a Probst". Lindsay put the whole thing together and she did a great job. Thanks Linds!

Happy Birthday Kylie

It seems like I just barely did a post of Kylie turning 2! I can't believe she is already 3! She loves Dora so that was the theme for this years party. I put Danny in charge of getting her a present since he works in Vegas so he picked out a purple My Little Pony toy that talks and drinks from a bottle and sings. It was really cuet that he picked that out for her and she LOVED it! I don't think it is any surprise to anyone that I love this little girl! She is such a sweetheart with quite the little sassy side :). She loves to be mother hen and she organizes EVERYTHING. If she is eating candy, she groups them up by color and then lines them out in a perfect line. From shampoo bottles, to her My Little Pony's, to pennies, she lines them up in a perfect line, all facing the same direction. She is so much fun and just beams with personality...

Hot Summer Day...

When the boys are gone, the girls will play... all the boys went scouting for deer so me, my mom, Emily and the two little ones (Kylie and Presley) had a girls' weekend. We had so much fun! Friday night we went to Mesquite for dinner and then came home and watched So You Think You Can Dance. Saturday we went to Henderson and met up with Aunt Kathy, Becky and Aspen at the mall; did a little shopping, went to lunch and then went swimming at Kathy's. After we went swimming, Aunt Kathy taught me how to make her famous rolls which are SO good! She made the dough and taught me how to form the rolls and then I took them home to cook. Danny was really happy to come home to the smell of fresh rolls. :). Thanks Aunt Kathy!

Marysvale

A few weekends ago we went to Marysvale for the weekend. Between everyone that came, we had four Rangers and three 4-wheelers. We would get up every morning and go for a long ride in the mountains. It was SO nice up there! One of the days, we went on a 6 hour ride and got stuck in a hail storm. It made it kinda exciting but it was freezing! We all had a good time!

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

The Honeymoon

For our honeymoon we went on the Baja Mexico cruise. We had so much fun! At Catalina Island we rented a Seadoo and looked for dolphins. We also stopped at Ensenada but we stayed on the ship. Danny's favorite part was the 24 hr frozen yogurt.

The Wedding Day!

My family... Kyle, Emily, Travis, Danny, Me, Mom, Dad, Dusty, Trish, Jason

Danny's Family... Courtney, Lissa, Dad, Mom, Danny, Me, Krista, Payden, Taci, Phil

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 bouquet

Tara 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.

Some pictures of the big day

Whew... the wedding is over and I we are back to normal life. Planning the wedding was so fun but it was a lot of work, a lot of phone calls, and a lot of running from Vegas to St George all the while trying to stay focussed at work. These are just a couple pictures of the wedding. I am waiting to get them back from Tara which will be very soon. I will put more up when I get them.

This is my neice Kylie who was one of my flower girls. I made little tu-tus for them to wear and despite the look on her face in this picture, she loved wearing it and she said "look! I am a real ballerina".

This was such a happy day and I am so glad I had Tara as my photographer to capture the moments. Thanks Tara!

Welcome home Travis!

My little brother Travis came home from the Oklahoma, Tulsa mission. He came home on Friday the 26th. (the day before the wedding). Me and Trav have always been really close and it has been so fun having him home!

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

Addresses Needed :)

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 :)

I'm Engaged!

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...
