i just can't help myself

i can't contain it anymore. devin still needs to edit some of the photos from our wedding day, but i'm going to put some up anyway. so just keep in mind that they're not edited. 

plus also- I sure love that man. phrases like "best friend" "soul mate" "perfect match" -- they don't really do us justice. it's so much more than that. i feel like there's something much deeper that neither of us even know how to identify. i'm grateful every day that he married me. it's the best decision i ever made, and i think about May 26th every single day. the happiest day of my life. just look at us! (sigh)

introducing: Mr. and Mrs. Ashby!

Shawn, Dane, Devin, Katie Sandwich. Between these 3 boys, my back's always covered.

Our friends that came to the temple! LOVE them all!

they were cheering silently. it was sort of hilarious.

my daddy

devin and 3 of his best friends. love these boys

this is a really good picture of my dress. it gives you a better idea of what it looks like

resting, haha

Jared said, "what's your favorite color tulip?" i picked white. so he shot with that.

i love this. the sun was so bright and it was hard to open his eyes but he just kept looking at me and smiling

i love all the shots we have through this door

babies! i love this shot because addison is not only looking AT the camera, but she's smiling! kaden's face is a classic.

my bouquet was SO beautiful. to.die.for.

centerpieces! they turned out perfect. i tied all the ribbons myself (with some help from ky) and it took 2 days!

THE cake.

cupcakes

love this. my little cousins sophie and khloee

christian taking a picture for his wifey

possibly one of my favorite pictures from the whole day. addi LOVES to dance! she stole the show! this is as dev and i are working our way out to the bride's room so i could change

okay. maybe i got a little carried away. but that's a pretty good selection of pictures. so many more! i'll put them all up as soon as they're edited!

p.s. did you notice the awesome/much needed changes i made to my blog? i can finally post bigger pictures! and now, i have PAGES! haha read about us, and go to dev's website to see the cool new stuff he's done.
