Engagement Pictures!

Kelly and I met Megan Imel at the seminary today where she took our engagement pictures! It was painfully cold outside, but we toughed it out in order to get some good pics.

We really wanted to take our engagement pictures outside when there was snow on the ground, so we went for it today. The snow had started to melt by 4 when we took our pictures, but we think they turned out great!

We will be choosing one of these pictures to use for our save the date cards we will be sending out soon. Be on the lookout for those!

Here are some of our favorite pictures from today:

We're ENGAGED!


Well I finally had my candlelight so now everyone can know the exciting news...We're engaged! We are so, so excited to start our lives together and watch as our relationship continues to grow! (And Winston is excited to finally have a "Real Dad"!)

But let me back up and explain how the proposal went. Nate took me out to a nice restaurant in downtown Louisville called the Bristol. After dinner he got on his phone and called for a horse-drawn carriage to come pick us up. I was so surprised and thought that the carriage ride was the big surprise of the night! We rode the carriage down to the waterfront park and started walking around, enjoying what I thought, was a typical Louisville night. Once we had been walking around for awhile Nathan got down on one knee and asked me to marry him! Our friend Megan was there taking pictures right after it happened. We then spent the rest of the weekend in Danville and Lexington visiting with our families. It was easily the best weekend of my life!

As of now wedding plans are well underway! Nathan has been working hard on our wedding website and we are pretty proud of it! Check it out:

Wedding planning is already getting hectic but we are extremely pleased with how many plans we have been able to make...I'm sure we'll have exciting stories to tell as we tackle all of the adventures that come with planning a wedding!
