Only 5 More Days!!!

I swear our wedding day could not come soon enough. It's like every day is Christmas Eve but then I wake up and Christmas isn't here yet. I have been so excited for over a week now and it just keeps building up more and more every day. I get to go to the Temple tomorrow so that makes me even more anxious. Thank you to everyone that is so diligently helping us execute all the plans we have made. We love you!

I have the most AMAZING photographer ever! On a day when I felt all weird and not myself she helped me to relax, have fun and capture some amazing moments. Love you Renee!

Bridal/Wedding Showers

SO FUN!!! I have to admit Bridal Showers are what have made "getting married" seem real. All the planning is fun but you don't see many results at first, learning new ways to communicate with the same people is lots of work but the showers are what make it feel so real. The amount of support from family old/new and friends that I didn't really realize I had was totally wonderful! Major thank you to all the lovely ladies that worked so hard to throw me such exciting showers! Love you all =)
P.S. Sorry I don't have a picture from the EK Famliy Shower but they are on Face Book.
P.P.S. Jaron is a gift Nazi and will not let me use anything! =D

Engagement Pictures By Renee Bath

Engagament Story

So I had been eagerly awaiting for Jaron to propose for weeks but when I least expected it he asked. He had also been fake proposing to me all the while so when it was the for reals time I was  rather uncertain. It was Thursday night September 10th and we had just finished running wedding planning errands when we found ourselves in the avenues with an amazing view of the Salt Lake Temple. As we were admiring it Jer suggested we go walk around Temple Square since it was such a nice night. I agreed and we made our way there on foot enjoying the wonderful weather and conversation. As we approached the reflection pond I got an excited feeling/thought that maybe tonight was the night. I quickly dismissed the thought for fear of getting my hopes up. We sat at the pond talking when he started playing with the white pearl ring that I had on and said how perfect this night would be if he only had the ring. He then suggested he us the one already on my finger but I shot that idea down immediately. He then said well maybe I don't need your ring as he reached into his pocket. I started giggling in excitement as he got on one knee and asked me to marry him. I giggled some more then replied with a "Yes, YES of course!". He then proceeded to put the ring on my right hand. =D Not only did he give me the most beautiful black pearl engagement ring but earrings and a second ring to go along with it. I then called Jilly, texted others and took some pictures like most girls do at a time like that. We finished walking around the Temple, I told all the people we walked by that we just got engaged and that Jaron was my fiance. He got a bit embarrassed but I just had to tell the world. Thank you Jer, for it couldn't of been in a better time or place because the spirit was with us and made everything PERFECT!!! I can't wait to spend eternity with you. XOXO
