My other love....

I am in love with a chair.

Not just any chair.

The Louis Ghost Chair.

It is gorgeous, and some day I shall own some :)

Not knock-off's either....the real things.

Isn't it the most beautiful chair EVER?!

LOVE it!

It also comes in many different colors :)

One year ago...

I got engaged to the most wonderful man :)

He surprised me by doing it earlier then I thought he would. Jake was able to get tickets to the Christmas Devotional at Temple Square. I had the most amazing time listening to the First Presidency in person and then walking around Temple Square looking at the lights.  He then led me to the 'perfect picture spot' where he got down on one knee and asked me to be his wife.

I thought he was joking and didn't realize he was serious. I think I said "no" more than I said yes but I am glad that he asked in such a special and wonderful way. I wouldn't change anything about that day (except maybe my being totally clueless).

I love Jake so very much! He is the sweetest and kindest guy I know. 

{a special thank you to Jessica & Donnie Howell who took these pictures of us and

 recorded the proposal for us! today is their engagement anniversary too!}

{photo fun}

For our thank-you cards we decided to to do a postcard kinda look with a picture of us holding a thank-you sign on one side and the note on the the other. They look really cute!

The pictures are adorable but i have no use for a picture that says thank you on it so 

i decided to play around and change it up :) 

Here is what i did....

i quite like the results, what do you think?
