New Years Eve - the night of our first kiss

Morgan got home from work and walked in the garage and to her surprise a dark shadow standing there - It was Jack surprising her for Valentines Day. He had set the scene perfectly and Morgan had thought he was working late diving into his work so he wouldn't be near his phone but in reality he was on a flight to Connecticut! This sweet surprise actually scared Morgan so much she threw her purse at the shadowy figure in the garage and ran away, after a few seconds she realized who that must've been!

Our First Valentines Day - at Prime, naturally

Baking sweet treats... judging by our faces... they did not come out like the photo

Cooking Class with Morgan's coworkers at the time! Jack did this for her to celebrate her Birthday and learning how to make pasta from scratch was the best gift that keeps on giving!

Jack & Morgan's birthday's are 11 days apart - they decided to celebrate together with both families this year. What made this day the most special was seeing both our families mesh together only signifying what was to come

After getting delayed in from a hurricane at JFK for 10 hours Morgan finally made it to Texas right in time for the clock to strike 12 for Jack's Birthday! So off the plane she went with party hats and kazoos to surprise Jack at baggage claim!

When Jack picked Morgan up from the airport in New Mexico, this was the first stop on their road trip to move him back to Connecticut. Jack surprised Morgan with a sign at the bottom of the escalator saying "No Longer Long Distance"

After a 10 hour driving day on our road trip to CT we stopped at a restaurant in Petal Mississippi and had one of the BEST meals! We can't wait to go back here!

The night before Jack proposed to Morgan (she had zero idea) they had a wholesome night in the cabin building legos & watching 80's Halloween Movies (and a ton of snacks, of course)

About 10 minutes after Jack proposed to Morgan - the proposal was so private and intimate between the two of them that there was no recording or photos until after (don't worry we recreated them)

a recreation of where it happened

a very happy FIANCE!

After Jack proposed, he took Morgan to get her nails done and told her there would be a sibling dinner to follow, little did Morgan know that there would be a big surprise waiting for her - she was in fact surprised

Sunsets are better together <3
