We're Engaged!!

My best friend of two years asked me to be his wife Septemeber 5, 2008. Now the life of wedding planning begins. I am so in love with him. He is my everything. We are so excited and thankful for all the support!!

How John proposed...

He took me to Del Frisco’s in Fort Worth. (By far the fanciest restaurant this girl has ever been to!) We sat in the “best spot in the house.” :) (The food was incredible, and the service was perfect!) He had my present wrapped all pretty sitting in the corner of his side of the table. I wasn’t allowed to open it till the END of the meal?? It was so hard… it kept calling my name!! FINALLY the end of the meal came and he let me open it… It was a scrapbook. When I opened it the first slot had the first picture we ever took together back in 2006. As I turned the pages I found every picture we’ve EVER taken together over the last 2 years! (All 93 pictures!) When I got to the end of the pictures there was a note that said STOP. Read me. (Sample of the note… “You are my world. Without you, I’d be lost. I am so in love with you. I can’t get enough of you. I want to spend the rest of my life with you…” :)) At the bottom it said… Now, keep turning pages…

I turned two more pages and there was a little black sleeve tucked in the slot. I opened it and saw a ring. I immediately closed it, put it on the table, and put my hand over my mouth. John then got out of his seat, came over, and got on one knee. He said… “I’m going to need you to take the ring out…” and I said…”you’re going to have to do it for me.” My hands were shaking SO BAD!! He got the ring out and placed it on my shaking finger.

He did SUCH a good job. I am one blessed girl. He is my best friend, my soulmate, and now my fiancee! I love him so much!!
