I know, I'm slow.

So I realized how incredibly slow I am at getting pictures up and posted on here. And now isn't the best time to be noticing this, because I am starting a full time job at Everts Air Cargo on Monday, and just started three classes last sunday!! I'm going to be one busy girl on the week nights!!! Good thing I have time on the weekend to go outside and play!! : ) I am so grateful that Jared has the weekend off. He works night shift so if he didn't, we would never get to see eachother!!

It's also been fun lately because my friend Nichole and I have been quilting and we have all these great ideas and projects we're working on. (Yet another thing I don't have time to do!)

For those of you that aren't on the call-if-jared-gets-drawn-for-anything list, he got drawn for a goat out by spencer glacier with my dad. It's all he talks about and if you're melissa, you know how I feel, since Jed got drawn for a sheep. They talked for an hour about how to kill a sheep, but Jed neglected to tell us that their car got broken into last week!! Priorities, I know!! But, that's what we get for marrying huntin' fools!! Huh, Melis?

That's about all that's new so far I think. I am going to actually try to keep up to date. Our camers needs a new battery so I haven't been able to take any pictures recently. Hopefully I can remember to get one here pretty soon!

Our ring ceremony in Arizona...

After we were married in the temple, we had a ring ceremony in Arizona at my parents new house. We had a lot of help from friends and family for decorations, set up and music. Everything looked perfect.




















Around my parents new pool, there was just enough room to set up the chairs. It was a sunny day, but really, really, windy!!















All the girls packed into one bathroom to get ready...

I love these girls!!




















The dresses were super cute. Green and brown were my colors and that turned out really cute once all the girls were dressed and ready. The guys looked pretty sharp too. Who knew friends of ours could clean up so well!! : )



This dress was made by my grandma Saraha for my mom at my parents wedding. My mom made it longer and made a few other changes for it to fit me and so I could wear it outside the temple. It is the most beautiful dress I have ever seen. I wish my grandma could have seen me wear it as my mom did.

























Jaron Pope, one of Jared's mission companions, was the best man and my maid of honor was my best friend Casey Martinez.

















The best men were Barry, David Smith, and my cousin Joseph Lee.

The bridesmaids; Ashley Bixler, Margaret Griffin, and Jaime Martinez.







We had so much fun in Arizona with all the friends and family. We are so blessed to have so many amazing people in our lives all around us.
