Sunday night ramblings...

I'm sitting here typing this feeling completely elated.  Our good friends, Kristen and Jeff got engaged last weekend while in Niagra Falls.  These are two people that we've both known for a long time.  Kristen and I went to high school together, two years apart, and met while working in Kid's Shoes at Nordstrom on our summers home from college.

Jeff and Scott went to the same high school as Kristen and I, but became close in college when they lived in the same dorm and then the following year, the same house.

Here's the crazy part.

They met at our wedding in 2009.  Jeff was a groomsman and Kristen was a bridesmaid and I paired them up to walk down the isle together.

Jeff was at the final stages of his divorce from his first marriage and Kristen had brought a date with her to the wedding.  Jeff's ex-wife was at the wedding and Kristen's date was my maid of honor's brother.  But, none of that mattered.  They met.  They hit it off.  They danced the night away.  And four years and some change later, Jeff proposed to Kristen.

It's an absolutely beautiful story.  And one I'm quite proud to have played a part in.

It got me thinking...

When one door closes, another one opens.

Timing in life is everything.

Love has no boundaries.

Scott and I met up with Kristen and Jeff this past Saturday to celebrate with them.  We couldn't be more happy for them!  They've both been such good friends to us over the years and are truly some of our closest friends who, despite us moving out here and having two little kids with little free time, have stuck by our sides through it all.

In all of this excitement, they asked the both of us to stand up in their wedding.

They also asked Sean to be their ring bearer.  I can't wait to see the little guy in a tux!

As they are working on the details of their wedding, they are hoping to book their wedding at Cherry Creek, the same venue we got married at, since it would be where they first met.

They're also looking into January 4th as a date.  We were married on January 24th.

This year will be our 5th wedding anniversary and the possibility of Scott and I walking down the isle again together in Kristen and Jeff's wedding, with one of our boys right in front of us at the very place where we said "I do" just seems so cosmic!  Like all the stars aligned on this one.

I'm excited to be a part of their special day and I can't wait for all the festivities to begin!  I hope they enjoy this romantic time in their lives!  May they live happily ever after!
