I said YES!

OMG I am engaged!!! 5 months and 10 days after meeting Brad he popped the question! We have been talking about getting married for a while so I guess he figured why not now! He was going to ask my dad over the Christmas holiday when we were at their house but then chickened out (apparently asking my dad if he could marry me is the hardest thing he has ever done) My family had plans to go on a cruise for my dad’s 50th birthday on January 16th, Brad wasn’t going since I met him long after we booked the cruise. So I guess Brad decided he wanted me to have a ring before going on the cruise, that way I could show it off!!! After he called my dad to get the big OK; we went to the mall to look at rings and ended up picking one out!! He said he sat on his bed with my dad’s number in his phone for an hour before he hit send!! (aww how cute)

I couldn’t believe that I was picking out my engagement ring! We went to one store that was going out of business first and I saw a few I liked, but we didn’t think that they would offer financing or a warranty since they were closing… so onto the next store. Wow almost everything in that store was either A out of our price range or B not what I was looking for :( So onward we went to the other store in the mall, which is where I found the perfect ring! It is a Past, Present, and Future ring with diamond flecks on each side! We also picked out my wedding band and his ring! I love his as well; it is tungsten (almost as hard as a diamond) and is 2 tone!


I am SOOOO extremely excited to get married! I don’t think I would have ever imagined finding the right guy this past year! If you would have told me last year that I would be getting married in 2009 I would have laughed at you and said no way! But here I am planning my wedding to my dream guy!
