So.. I just got our first engagement present from my mom's best friend! A picture frame a binder to plan everything and The Wedding Book! I'm so excited!

The Proposal!

So it happened..it really happened!  I am ENGAGED to the love of my LIFE!  I couldn't be happier...I'll tell you how it went down!

Friday night David arrived and while my Sister, Mom and I went shopping David was at my house asking my Dad for permission to marry me!  I had a feeling it was coming and we even had a bet that he wouldn't do it..and I LOST, but I'm so glad I lost! 

Anyways, Saturday the plan was supposed to be my parent's go to the Cub's Game and My sister her bf David and myself meet them at Navy Pier for dinner, and to walk around (since David has never been downtown Chicago)...us Suburbs kids take it for granted.  Anyways it rained, and poured, and rained some more..so plans got changed...no Navy Pier :(  ..instead we just went to dinner and the movies..so here comes the fun part...

Sunday my sister, her boyfriend, David, and myself went to the Cubs game, and then my parent's pulled the opposite and they met us at Navy Pier afterwards...and to make a long story short...we decided to ride the HUGE farris wheel at Navy Pier...and in cart 39...David asked me about half way up if I would marry him!  It was romantic, amazing..and I am so excited!  I'll be honest though...the first words out of my mouth were...you're not kidding are you?  (because he's such a jokester) and when he said no..I said "YES, NOW PUT THAT SUCKER ON MY FINGER"!  It was wonderful, I am so happy and now have so many wedding plans to get ready!  I feel so lucky that I get to spend the rest of my life with David, and can't wait to share all of the fun stuff with you along the way!  I'm gonna add some pictures from that night so you can see!  Ignore my crazy messed up hair and barely any make up from being outside all day!

We're kinda crazy!

The love of my life and me!
