Engagement Party

We had a great turnout for our engagement party. A special thanks to Craig, Val, Jen, and Jerm for making it all possible. They all put in a lot of time and effort to make this a special day for us!!

We had a cocktail party with a variety of specialty martini's, and delicious appetizers. The colors were brown, white, pink and yellow (some of our wedding colors). We had beautiful centerpieces with pink and yellow gerber daisies (our wedding flowers). It had been raining earlier in the day, but luckily it stopped raining just a couple of hours before the party....thank goodness! The night turned out better than we imagined.

Craig, Heidi, Valarie, and Josh. This is a really special picture because Josh has his eyes open AND he is smiling.

My good looking family. Ryen, Louise, Lauren, Heidi, Laurie (one of the bridesmaids), Dani (the flower girl), Aunt Becky, Aunt Sylvia, and my Grandmother. It is rare that we all get to take a picture together.

A great picture of Jen and Val sitting outside close to one of the heaters. Notice the fabulous tables and flowers.

Our friends Kolbe and Jennie, being really smart and staying inside where it was nice and warm.

Jen and Jerm posing perfectly!

My LBA friends, Jill, Heidi, George, Becs, and Kavita. I thought I was hilarious by giving George bunny ears, and Becs was also cracking herself up with her pose.
