Reception

Our Wedding

Logan and&nbsp;I met my freshman year of high school, his sophomore year of high school at a mutual friend's house for a party. We became fast friends but the thought of dating never really entered our minds until January 2015. After one night at The Fuzzy Duck, the rest is history!&nbsp;That brings us to today!&nbsp;We can't wait to see you all at our wedding!!!

How we met!

So our engagement...boy is Logan smooth! We decided a long time ago that when we finally finished some home improvement projects and in particular, tearing down our deck and making it into a patio and beautiful outdoor space, we would throw a big party. So we finally finished our patio with the help of our wonderful dads and friends. Logan said he set a date for the party...August 11, 2018. He said he decided this date as it was after softball season.&nbsp;I didn't really think much about it until he said we should have our immediate families over for lunch and then our friends for dinner. I started wondering but never said anything. Also, he always said he wanted to propose in front of all of our family and my sister Janel was working nights so she would not be making the party...or so I&nbsp;thought. The Thursday night before the party, we were finishing up our Co-ed softball league and all our friends said they would be making it Saturday night...what are the chances?! This got me thinking but I put it out of my head since Janel wouldn't be there. Friday night rolls around and Logan goes out with a few friends while I stayed home to clean and make some food.&nbsp;Saturday morning gets here and Logan is so sick (I thought originally he drank too much but actually he bought an expired juice that morning). We set up for the party and our parents and siblings start arriving. Everyone is hanging out and then my sister Janel walks around the corner in time for lunch! I didn't even think twice about a proposal though because so many other things were on my mind. After lunch, we were all just hanging out in our backyard and Logan calls me over.&nbsp;He said the sweetest things and then next thing&nbsp;I knew, he was on one knee (in Crocs) asking me to marry him!!! I was so surprised and obviously said yes!&nbsp;Which brings us to today!&nbsp;We can;t wait to see you at our wedding!&nbsp;

Engagement!
