10.  When did you get engaged and how did he do it?? We got engaged on Mothers Day in 2012, and it was one of those days where we had gotten into an argument over something silly of course and we didnt do anything special but as i was preparing to go to bed it was late and we both was still up... he turned to me and told me that he was sorry for how the day went he really wanted to do something special with me but he let me know that he loved me and he was in love with me and wanted to spend the rest of his days with me, he told how beautiful he thought i was and how he could see himself with anyone else and he said LATIRA IM JUST WONDERING WILL YOU BE MY WIFE???

24. Anything you wish you could change about your wedding? The date, i wanted to get married this year but i truly believe waiting until 2014 gives me time to pay everything off and get it all together...
