Chef Jeff

 Jeff cooks us tasty meals nearly every night, brings me a homemade lunch everyday, and has turned out to be rather creative in the kitchen!! Who would of known?
We are having fun together here in Idaho. Jeff starts his new job this Monday-- so his cooking skills are going to only keep improving.
Add that to the list of reasons why you want to come visit us!!

Billions and Billions Served Everyday

We would have never known it would be so hard to find a stinkin' job in Idaho. However, after exploring all of our options, Jeff has finally found a job at the Idaho Falls McDonalds (hence the yellow and red). And can I just say, "we're lovin' it"?

Sledding

We have finally learned how to enjoy Rexburg. There is a fantastic sledding hill right next to our apartment complex, and the snow here is freaking crazzyyyy. Here's a taste of the fun we are having...

Our Wedding Day 12-11-10

So we made it, to the Seattle Temple. Jeff & Karli- sealed for time and all eternity. This was definitely the best day of my life so far.
The smile that you see on my face here was consistent through the whole day, start to finish. I had never felt so happy in content in my entire life.
Even dressed up, on the temple grounds, we still managed to have a good time.
Definitely the most romantic shot the either of us had ever taken.
My lovely sister, I mean Mom, doesn't she look gorgeous?
My handsome Dad. I'm so proud to be his daughter.
Jeff & his beautiful Mom.. definitely a Mommy's boy.
What studs, don't they look smashing?
I definitely lucked out with the most amazing set of in laws. I love them so much.
Not only did I, but so did Jeff! We are one lucky newly wed couple!!
Jeff fit into the Kent family perfectly, my sisters adore him. The Jaeckel's have graciously welcomed me into their family. This is truly what marriage is all about.
I love this shot. The Kent Ladies. This is how my life has been, filled with girls. I'm so glad I will always have the three of them to fall back on. They are awesome. I have now gained an older sister, something I have always wanted. Jenae has already acted as an older sister to me- always ready to help me and Jeff in any way she can. She was missed at the wedding today so much. But Sophie being born is definitely a blessing- so many changes this year has brought.
Quincy and Chloe, I couldn't ask for better sisters. Aren't they beautiful? Flawless, I'd say.
The photo I wanted.. the first sister to get married. I love it.
Jeff's grandparent. They won the prize for the longest married couple. What an example for me and Jeff.
My Nana and Grandpa, the two people who have helped me out in so many ways. I love them with all my heart.
It was awesome how many people joined us at the temple. The sealing room was full, as was the waiting room. It was such an exciting feeling walking, hand in hand with Jeff, out the temple doors, greeted with so many awaiting smiles. Both Jeff and I were so grateful for all the family that came from such distances to spend the day with us. We both feel so blessed to have had so much support throughout our lives, and for that, we thank you.

You can see it on my face- I'm SO lucky.
Jeff and Karli Jaeckel.
The time at the temple was something I could never imagined it would be. It was truly an amazing experience.
Not only was the time at the temple flawless, so was the night reception. From the decorations...
To my Dad's performance...
To the cake...
To the garter toss...
To the bouquet toss...
To the laughs...
To all my friends there to share the day with me...
To our exit...
To our decorated car (just like the movies)...
To the drive off. It was the best day- by far. During the planning process, I did not understand the point of all the time, stress, and money put in for one day. Now that it is over, I know that it was SO WORTH it. I can't wait until my sisters, or one of my friends get engaged. I'm so excited to help plan someone else's special day. I'm so grateful to be married to such an amazing individual. I'm such a lucky girl to be able to spend the rest of my life with Jeff. We have just begun the next chapter of my life, and I am so excited.

Cribs, Rexburg Edition

We just moved in five days ago. Rexburg has welcomed us with below zero weather and no job openings anywhere. Aside from that, we are having fun setting up our new little home and getting used to this new married life. Here's just a little taste of our new lifestyle. Enjoy.
