Daniel and Amy in the middle of the closet project

Let the weekend projects begin!

This last weekend, Daniel and I worked on one of the many projects that I want to do in my house - the closet. Before, I only had one rod that was mounted too low (I couldn't hang my dresses on it, because they would drag on the floor). So Daniel and I went to Home Depot, bought wood and a bunch of tools, and now, with a little time and sweat, we have a much more functional closet! We made two shelves with rods which almost doubles the amount of hanging space. Now there is room for Daniel to put his clothes in there!

This is what my room looked like for a couple of days. I barely had room on my bed to sleep.

This is Daniel priming the closet after we installed the shelves we had built.

The finished product. YEAH!!!

OUR LITTLE HERO!!

Laura took this picture of James and I thought it was so cute. I was having fun on photo shop and decided he needed a cape!

My two favorite men!

So I just love this picture of Daniel with my nephew. We all got ready for church and Daniel and James ended up matching. Aren't they both so cute?! :)

09 08 07

We have changed the date. As we started planning everything, nothing seemed to be available on Sept. 14th and we didn't want to push it back, so we moved it forward. We are now getting married on September 08, 2007.



The plans are coming along well. We have a place and yesterday I found the dress. Hopefully things will continue to move along. We are very excited!

We're Engaged!!!

On Friday, my family decided to go camping. We tried to go last time my brother and his family were in town, but it didn't work out, and we needed some family time. We went up to my family's stake property. That night, before it got dark, my mom suggested that we go over by the river and take some family pictures. She sent Ben, Laura, and Briana over to scout out a place to take it. A little bit later, we all went over and joined them. Ben wanted to take it from across the river, but that wasn't working so we just took "couples" pictures. After, we started walking back to camp and I was looking at Laura's camera. Daniel told me to give it back to Laura, but I was looking at the pictures. Finally, he took it out of my hands and gave it to Laura. Then we took a few more steps and he turned me in a different direction and there of the ground was a blanket with rose petals and a ring box. I was shocked! Daniel took me over there and got down and asked me to marry him. I said yes!! I love him so much and know that I could never love anyone more. Only my mom and Briana knew it was going to happen (Briana set up the blanket while we were taking pictures). Daniel said that he knew it wasn't the perfect timing, being so soon after the funeral (it is going to be hard, I miss my dad so much and I am so sad that he won't be there. I know that he loved Daniel though and that this is what he wanted), but that he wanted to ask me while my whole family was there, so he had to do it before Ben and Laura left. We know that we have had a long and shaky history, but our timing is finally right and it feels so good! I feel like we will only be stronger because of the trials we have gone through. We have chosen September 14th as the wedding date, so there is a lot to do in a short amount of time, but we can't wait! We are excited to start our life together. Here are some pictures from the engagement...
