Engaged!!!!!!!!



Well everyone, after 3 1/2 years of dating, and 5 years of being friends, and knowing each other for our ENTIRE lives.....we are officially engaged! I know this comes as no surprise to most, if not all of you, but I wanted you all to know from me, or Adam, if we can help it. (Though our families are very excited so I wouldn't be surprised if you heard it from one of them. : )

For the curious minds out there, I will give a brief rundown of how it went. For those of you who know us well, you know that we are each other's best friends, so naturally we don't keep secrets from each other very well. Needless to say, I knew the day it would happen, as well as how, since Adam more or less asked me to help plan it. Thinking back, we wouldn't have it any other way. : ) We had planned a late celebration of our anniversary date for yesterday, February 1, 2009. So we headed off to Equinox pond, to "walk around." While we were standing next to the pond, in awe of the beautiful scenery, Adam got down on both knees, and said those magic words..."Would you......please......marry me?!" I said "Yes!" of course! We then went out to dinner at Garlic John's in Manchester, where we pondered what had just happened, and let it begin to sink in. So then we headed down to Adam's parents to break the news, and after the initial "What?!"s, they were thrilled! So then after we talked about some details, we headed up to my parents house to share with them the news they were already expecting. From there we have been calling and telling people, and it sinks in more with every minute! We are thrilled, and loving the idea and the planning more and more! Well, since I didn't sleep much at all last night with all the thoughts flying through my head, I should really TRY to get some sleep. Anyways, I happy to tell all of you this. I will update as the plans go forward! Night all!!!
Oh, and the official date is July 12, 2009!!!!
