Jonathan and I got engaged on March 13th, 2005. At the time we lived in different states. Jonathan was living in Florida and I was living in Texas. We knew very shortly after we met in November 2004 that we were meant to be together forever. We talked about marriage. We looked at rings (I wanted a band-something very simple and understated.) We knew we were going to elope (or have a ceremony in a park with cupcakes!) Jonathan came to visit during the second week in March. My parents drove down from Frisco to be with us for the weekend. That Sunday, AFTER my parents had left…Jonathan proposed (needless to say my Mom wasn’t thrilled that he waited until after they left, but he said he wanted it to be our moment and to be able to share it with Cody.) Jonathan left a few days later to go back to Florida and we didn’t see each other again until we landed in Vegas to get married (watch for that post on April 27th!) So…we didn’t have any engagement pictures taken, but I do have a few shots from the weekend we were engaged (a weekend I will never forget!)

BONUS SHOT…this is Jonathan back in FL taking a picture of what he is going to wear when we got married (with some type of mock tie!)
