My Big Surprise...

The Proposal...

It happened Christmas Eve 2009. I had put in 8 hours at my pool and was coming home in a rush to pack to go to my Mother's for Christmas. However, my plans were quickly changed! When I opened my door and stepped into my living room I saw this...

Roger standing in the middle of my living room with a dozen pink roses, rose petals thrown all over the floor and about 30 lit candles accompanying the flowers. Roger said this beautiful speech that I really don't remember because I was shaking at the words that Roger was saying. He got down on one knee and asked the timeless question, "Will You Marry Me?" Of course, I said yes!! It was such a surprise. I had no idea it was coming! It was perfect. Everything about it was perfect! It hasn't really hit me that I am now engaged. Someday I will be a Mrs! How exciting :-) So now you guys get to read about my big wedding plans for the next year and a half. I can't wait to start planning, to try on dresses, to pick out colors, to test taste cakes, to find an apartment, to pick out dishes, to find towels...oh my the list goes on and on! What a great adventure!! :-)

Oh, Bethany! I am so excited for you! There is absolutely NOTHING this side of heaven like being married. It is wonderful. It is work, but it is so rewarding and worth it. Having said all that, this engagement period is so special. Don't wish it away. Enjoy these moments planning, and the excitement that goes along with anticipating being a wife. It will go by so fast. I love you, my one-in-a-million girl.
