So for all of those who haven't heard my great news yet... Last night Jeff popped the big question. :)
Here's what happened..
So yesterday morning Jeff and I are talking and he tells me that he is craving tacos and I was thinking that tacos did sound really good so we decided to get them for dinner, Jeff suggest that we go up to Manti and eat at a little place called fred's and so I said sure.
We Jeff left off to work and I went to class and around 1 in the afternoon I got a text from Jeff saying that his boss let him off work early and he was going to go home and shower. I was in the sewing lab working on a new quilt i'm making and so I told him to come and see me before he went home. He came over and asked me if I wanted to go and get tacos for lunch but I had just had lunch and was not hungry.
Well he went home and I spent the next few hours in the sewing lab, and the whole time I was in there I was getting text from Jeff asking me how long I was going to be there and if I was almost done..
When I was driving home Karen called me and I talked to her for a while and then told Jeff I was home and he could come over, when he got to my house he was dressed in his nice clothes and his hair was all done, and he had his watch on. (He only wears his watch when its something special) So I was thinking something was up, and I started questioning him, but he gave me some really good normal answers so I brushed it off and forgot. Well he was ready to go but I decided that I wanted to take a shower before we left, so an hour and a half later I was showered, had done my make up and was ready to go to dinner.
Dinner was good, but they were out of tacos. After we were done eating we walked across the street and looked through this cute old store and then went to get hot chocolate, because it was freezing outside!! When I thought we were headed home he took a random turn and I asked him where we were going and he told me that he was taking me to the temple because I had asked him a few weeks ago if we could go. So not thinking anything we drove up to the temple and he parked the car. But I was really cold so I asked if we could just sit in the car and look at the temple, but he told me No, we need to walk around. I thought that was a little weird because normally he would just let me sit in the car.
So we got out of the car and walked up to the gate and I was thinking someday when Jeff asks me to marry him this is probably what it will be like . . . little did I know.
So we get to the back of the temple and we are just standing there talking and Jeff starts messing with something behind his back, and then I knew what was going on. He was holding me close and said "there comes a time when every boy and girl needs to make a decision" or something like that and then he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him.
I honestly don't remember anything I said, but he told me I just kept on screaming and jumping up and down and saying shut up!! ha ha It took me by such surprise, and I thought he was joking, and after he put the ring on my finger I just kept on looking at it to make sure it was real, and asking him if we were really engaged.
Lucky for me he was not just joking around, and yes I AM REALLY ENGAGED!!!!
I am so excited to get married to my best friend and spend the rest of my life with him!!!! :)
My ring is GORGEOUS!!! There are 24 diamonds in the top and in the wedding band there are another 14 :) My man did good lol :)
