The three months until the wedding doesn't seem like enough time to get everything done but at the same time, it doesn't seem to come fast enough.  Between buying a house, planning a wedding, attending to busy jobs and having a meaningful relationship with each other, God and our friends, life is very full these days.  We find joy in just being together during our down time!  <div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4022677005209626699-5556773775461618709?l=kristaandaaron.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Here we are!http://www.blogger.com/profile/13644025281247497167noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4022677005209626699.post-4805497679691091212009-04-06T13:26:00.000-07:002009-04-06T13:45:02.378-07:00<a style="color: rgb(51, 153, 153);" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aRC70arJC1k/Sdplx6frKAI/AAAAAAAAAA8/mbupVgGVlws/s1600-h/03.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aRC70arJC1k/Sdplx6frKAI/AAAAAAAAAA8/mbupVgGVlws/s320/03.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321677817881765890" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(51, 153, 153);">Just a couple of weeks ago Aaron and I went down to Corona Del Mar, Newport Beach to take our engagement pictures with our fabulous photographers, Jeff and Erin Youngren. Aaron and I were both a little nervous, feeling like, you know, we're not supermodels or anything! Also, it was a "cold" California day, so I was worried about being too cold! But, because it was cloudy the lighting was perfect, and Aaron kept me warm! :) As we took our engagement pictures, I thought to myself... I can't believe we're doing this! It's real! We're really getting married! And... the next time we'll be taking pictures... I'll be in my dress and he'll be in his tux!
