ANNOUCMENT!

It's finally happened! Tuesday the 24th Jay decided to make me the happiest girl in the world & asked me to marry him!

He had been apparently waiting for a moment when both myself and our roommate was out for obvious privacy. So on our last day of classes I went away while he stayed home and prepared himself. 

Usually when one of us is gone, upon returning home the other takes Uley out and he gets so excited and runs out to meet you and it's adorable and absolutely makes our day! So I was obviously disappointed when I didn't see him while I was walking to our apartment. By the time I was almost to the door I was going to be pretty upset if he was playing video games and had forgotten about me!

So I walked inside and nobody was there...

On our bedroom door was a nice long note saying all of the sweet stuff Jay was worried he wouldn't be able to get out at the time for me to read. Realizing what was happening I hurried through the words and walked inside. 

There he was waiting to grab my hand. He said some sweet things that I couldn't recall too well now if I tried, got down on one knee, and asked me to marry him!!!

I cried, shook my head yes and got the gorgeous ring put on my finger!

He got everything on video, but that's private and very special :)

We're not dressed up obviously. That morning he hinted to me that I should dress decently, but I didn't. So I looked super classy in a hat and t-shirt. He didn't make me feel bad though and dressed equivalently.

After we took Uley outside and admired my ring in the sunshine and I cried some more and enjoyed our little moment we did what we would typically do...

the most romantic moment of all time...

Go to the gym. 

That's right, the gym. Go figure. 

We had a celebratory lunch together.

& Then prepared for an evening of calling family and friends to share the news

Later that night we celebrated and basked in our new engagement!

So now - we plan for a wedding!

We're both still so happy and so excited for all of the madness heading our way and the idea that we will soon be man and wife!
