Meet the Wedding Party: Luke Randall Jones

Here is Luke Randall Jones,

It all started my sophomore year of college, Jimmy and I were getting two new freshmen in our room we were kind of nervous for them, 204 had high standards! We all got settled in and started to get to know each other then Luke and I found that we saw things a bit different, part of it was I liked pestering him, so that first semester we were at each other like no other. After many nights of pillow talk, me perching on the edge of his bed ready to pounce, and late night McDonald's runs after face melting rock band concerts we came to love each other.
Over the years we have had our ups and downs, like he wasn't happy when I move out of the house, but our kayaking trips are always good when we can go. Oh and when we decide to change the room somewhere close to finals week and stay up most of the night, or when we change it after Luke has left because he would cry about it if he were there. He now has a motorcycle and once I get a new back tire that isn't about to unravel we can go for some fun rides.
Luke is an awesome guy and great friend. I am privileged to know him and hope he follows me where I get a job so we can still hang out.

Meet the Wedding Party: Brandin LeBlanc

Brandin LeBlanc everybody...

Brandin and I met during ropes training at Pine Cove in 2009. We became good friends pretty fast and then started doing laundry on the weekends together and hanging out having fun. Then I met Haley and neither of us had a car, which kind of made spending time together hard to coordinate but Brandin being the awesome guy that he is allowed me to use his car. This helped Haley and me out as well as made Brandin and me closer friends.
We both like to play volleyball and still haven't played together, which is a shame and needs to happen some time.
This past summer he was Castle Rock senior counselor so we didn't get to hang out quite as much but that week 1 that I had C-Rock was epic for sure!!
I love Brandin's heart for people, he is eager to help other and preach the Gospel to those who need to hear it. I am glad that we are friends and I know that hearing about what he is doing makes me want to work harder, most of the time.

Great weekend!

Nick came to Texas this weekend... It was pretty spectacular. He road the train with me to work on Friday, and worked on his lab report while I was at work. Then, we road the train to the State Fair. I loved getting to experience the Fair with him. It is one of my favorite things from my childhood... Right up there with Christmas, and getting to show him around and talk about all the stuff I love about it was so great.

On Saturday, we ordered our TOMS for the wedding, and then we went and bought WEDDING RINGS!!! This is getting real, people! He told me I could wear it to dinner, but I refrained. We also made a trip out to our favorite date place, IKEA, for some 50 cent hot dogs. Then, we worked on cropping our invitations! I am so relieved that those are done! For dinner we had my favorite, On The Border.

Sunday, we went to church and then to Spaghetti Warehouse because we had a coupon for their "Feast for Two." Let me tell you, more like a feast for 6. There was so much food, Nick is going to be eating leftovers for a week.

All in all, it was a great weekend. Here is what we accomplished off the wedding list:
- Wedding rings purchased.
- Invitations completed.
- Shoes purchases.
- Finalized the ceremony music.

Meet the Wedding Party: Allison

Introducing Allison Catherine Legg!

I have known Allison since the summer of 2007, but we did not become real friends until the next year. We lived together in the lovely CJ 6, enduring a lot of bugs and dirt and lack of sleep together. Then, we worked a cheerleading conference at Pine Cove together... and were made the Mountain Biking instructors. Take a few seconds to picture that. Or you can read about it HERE.
Then we made the most epic road trip ever, to Kansas City, for a wedding. As an ironic side note, Nick was supposed to be at that wedding, too, since it was his old roommate who was getting married. However, he did not go, which pushed our meeting back to 2009. On this road trip, I was the dad with the video camera and the directions, and Allison was the mom, since that is just her nature... :)
Since then, Al has been such a blessing in my life. I have loved talking about wedding stuff and marriage stuff and life stuff with her. She is getting married one week before us and I cannot wait to learn together with her as we explore the role of "wife" for the first time.

How do you know Haley?--Hales and I met at the Towers gauntlet summer 2007 and then worked part of second half together. We became better friends the following summer and then best of friends after our Kansas City roadtrip Christmas 2008.

What do you want to be when you grow up?--Since I was 3, I always wanted to be a doctor, nevermind the fact that I carried a baby doll with me everywhere I went

What is your favorite past halloween costume?--I remember getting to borrow a "real" princess dress and crown when I was about four or five--that was my highlight.

What is your current obsession?--Paninis!

What song do you most want to dance to at the wedding? --Cyclone, duh!

Hollywood decided to make Nick and Haley's story into a movie. Who would play them? --Amanda Bynes (She's very quirky, real, and totally cute but doesn't know it, like Hales) & Brad Pitt (He seems kind of shy and a little mysterious, much like Nick)

What should Nick and Haley name their first pet? Dixie--Haley, you can't move all the way to Missouri and not take some of Texas with ya!

What is your favorite memory involving Haley? --Easily our roadtrip to Kansas City. Hales rode shotgun most of the time and I drove the whole time. We made a video and happen to nonchalantly say, "PC '09--maybe you're out there" in reference to our dream boys...Needless to say we're both marrying guys from PC '09!

What song will always remind you of Haley/Nick?--Disney theme songs and Taylor Swift.
