Where's Al's head?

This was Christmas day after we had just told Alex's family we were engaged. Yeah! His sister decided to take some "pre-engagement pics" hence the awkward pose with Al's head cut off...who poses like that? Don't be looking for those kinds of photos on our announcement cause that's totally NOT US :)
It's been a whirl wind week and a half since we got engaged and we are nowhere near any closer to figuring out all the typical questions people ask. There is so much to figure out and we're not quite sure where to even start. The one thing we do know for certain is July 10th Bountiful temple at 10 am. We have some time to figure out the rest, so we're taking it. Everyone's tips and advice on planning a wedding and a marriage ie where/how to live and everything else no one thinks of would also be greatly appreciated.
Our families have been extremely supportive and we couldn't be more grateful. Thanks also to all of our friends and their congratualtions, we are very excited and grateful that we can share this with you all.

Hey love birds!
Looks like fun! Marriage/wedding advice? Um, ok. Try not to get distracted by all the madness in planning everything- remember The Temple Ceremony. It's ok to do things the "non-traditional" route. Do what you want, not because you think you need to do it. Prioritize what is most important to you. Ie, the pictures, the flowers, reception center, honeymoon, etc.

but wait! There's more!:)
You will never be engaged to each other again. Have fun!
Don't stress out about the things that really don't matter in the end.
love you both!

So you want some advice, eh? Um, yeah sorry I don't have any for you. But I will tell ya to call me when you start to stress out. I know my Is and you have a "slight" tendency to do that once in a while. Remember that we remedy this with some ice cream! Just give me a holler and let me know when I need to run to the store and pick some up!
