He asked!!!

Guess what?!?!?! Mike popped the question! It is so romantic and so wonderful :) :) :) So now I bet your all asking how he did it that was so wonderful.


We were up at his Uncle's rehearsal wedding which was up in a canyon around Salt Lake. I think it was called Mills Canyon. So it is up in the mountains and everything is just green and gorgeous.


We were up around this pond that had a creek running by it and a waterfall in the background. I see a bunch of little rocks around and decided to show off my rock skipping skills, well tried to at least. And no matter what he tells you, I really do know how to skip rocks!!


I know this next picture is a little blury, but it captures THE MOMENT!


I turned around to pick up another handful of rocks and there he was, down on one knee :) :) :) He didn't even get a chance to ask! I practically tackled him in a hug, so he knew pretty well that it was a yes. This picture looks like I stopped or something, but no, I tackled him completely.


His family was across the pond and they all started whoopin and hollerin when they saw me hug him. And I hadn't even noticed, but his mom had been stalking us with the camera so she got pictures of the whole thing! I love looking at them :)


So yep, I am now engaged, which makes me feel pretty special. Here is my gorgeous ring that I am completely in love with.


Sometime around the end of next May is when we are planning the wedding, and his dad is a pastor and going to be the one doing the ceremony. And one of the BEST parts is that Jami said she would make our cake! Lucky Us!!!
