Some of you have been hearing about it for a while...for some of you this is a huge shock... but it's official, we're getting married! After several weeks of anticipation (which I did not endure patiently, I might add) Jimmy proposed on July 19th! It was so beautiful and I couldn't have planned it better myself! It started in the morning when he brought me breakfast from our favorite breakfast joint, Shirley's. He asked me if I had plans at 11:45 and when I said I was free, he let me know he had booked me an appointment for a massage at Sundance Spa. I found out later that it was just to get rid of me so he could prepare, but that's fine with me. Meanwhile, he was scoping out the perfect location for the proposal. After the massage we went our separate ways to do some chores. When we got back together there was just a note on his door, telling me to go to his desk. When I got there there was a note telling me to go to the school....I think you know where this is going. I also went to Wilson Diamond, where he bought the ring, and to Goodwood, where we had our first date. At each location he had left me a rose, a note and pictures of us. He was at the last location with dinner to go. We got in the car and headed up the canyon. After a bit of off-roading he parked the car and we started off on a little hike. For those of you who are familiar with this area, we were on a trail that was above Squaw Peak and overlooked the valley. Our destination was a mountain top and I was wondering why he had no blanket or anything for me to sit on (I was wearing a white skirt). As we rounded around to the top of the mountatin I saw a beautiful table with chairs (Thanks, Jimmy!), candles, roses, even a table cloth. The only sad part is that we didn't take a picture right at that the moment we got up there...it looked so perfect! But this pictures was taken after we were finished eating. As we were cleaning up he played a song from his phone and started dancing with me. When the song was finished he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. Even though I was bawling I was able to get out a "yes." A big "Thanks!" to his sister Ann and her Husband Keith for helping set up and making the evening so perfect!
