I got engaged this week and I'm SO EXCITED! I have to write the story, it's probably going to be long and rambling, sorry about that!
So Tuesday was my birthday and my bf... I mean FIANCE... and parents planned a big cookout at their house. It was such a surprise because I thought we were just going over for dinner and then a ton of friends and family were waiting out on the deck! Which was kind of weird because I was turning 26 which isn't a big birthday or anything...
Then like halfway through the night Ed suggested we go for a walk (my parents have a pretty big yard) and we ended up on the front porch swing (which is literally where as a teenager I used to sit and dream about marrying my prince charming) and he said he couldn't wait any longer to give me my birthday present and pulled out the ring and proposed!!! So then we went back to the party where my parents were waiting with champagne for everyone and it became a birthday/engagement party.
It was amazing, i mean we live together and have talked about marriage so I kiind of thought something might happen around my birthday but I had NO idea he'd get my parents involved and do it in such a big way! he's really not one for planning ahead haha so this must have been so hard... or else my mom helped a lot haha. Anyway, sorry I just wrote you guys a novel but basically this sums it up...
Best. Birthday. EVER.
Time to start planning!!!!!!!!!!
