Well hello friends!
This has been a long time coming, the update well lets just start with the BiG news and not leave in in suspense....
I am engaged!!! :))
Yes I am so so happy and am so excited!
Hopefully the question you are all asking is "how did he do it?"
Well here is the story, Matt and I went to the dinosaur museum at Thanksgiving Point with two of our cute married friends. Way fun double date right, so we walked around the museum for about an hour and then decided to go get something to eat and the cafe` was closed, so our friends decided that they were going to go walk around and I thought Matt and I were going to go with them but Matt insisted we get ice cream from the little ice cream parlor next to the closed cafe`. So we had been eating our ice cream for about 15 minutes when I had told Matt, "We should go find Jason and Jamie we are being rude not spending time with them here." and Matt being the adorable guy he is said, "oh no they are fine they probably need some alone time." So I brushed it off and about 5 minutes later we left to go walk around the gardens still at Thanksgiving Point, and there they have these pretty archways with flowers everywhere and it is very pretty. So we were walking down a path and there were lights on them and I am so oblivious I had looked down at the lights and said, "oh that is cool they have lights up, but they are really bright!" (Not catching on at all) which Matt could tell I had no idea yet. Then we walk around this little bend and there is a bend and sitting on the bench is this...
my very own "enchanted rose" like from my favorite movie Beauty and the Beast, so I still have no idea! I commented on how pretty I thought it was and how cute it was and then was going to keep walking but Matt was pulling me back and I didn't know why until he told me to look closer in the vase and hanging on the leaf of the rose was my BEAUTiFUL ring!!! I froze up and just kept saying "Really? is this Real?!?!" Little did I know that Matt made this for me the bottom part is a music box and plays the "Beauty and the Beast" song! So Cute right ;) Then he pulled my ring out and knelt down asking for my shaking hand as I was crying and asked me to marry him... of course I said... "YES"!!!
Now bring on the planning! I am seriously so happy I can't stop staring at my hand and haven't stopped smiling from ear to ear! Matt I love you so much, Love doesn't even do what we have justice I am so excited, grateful, and blessed to be spending Time and ALL Eternity with you! <333
Love you xoxoxo
