A week with my fiancee
That's right, I have a fiancee and I am a fiancee and I'm going to be a wife, a wife with a wonderful husband who is amazing and who I love so much and am going to love more and more and more for the rest of my life, How wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So it has been a week packed with celebrating and with lots of planning and decision making. We have go Soooooooo much done and have loved how amazingly everything has worked together, from venues to envelopes it's all been perfect.
I love the beautiful ring Andy chose and gave to me and I get to wear it forever. It sparkles and sparkles and makes me smile every time I see it.
Andy proposed at the begining of the week when we were up staying with our friends at Capernwray Hall. We went for a drive and a walk in Borwick around the church there.
He wispered to me "there's just one more thing to make this all perfect" then got down on one knee, he seemed a little nervous as he asked me but he asked me really beautifully and I couldn't stop smiling. I said yes (although not much sound came out) and then he says (I need your hand) and I say "It's here" (holding out my ring hand as I have been throughout) and he says "no your ring hand" "This is my ring hand" The ring fit perfectly and looks gorgeous and we enjoyed hanging out there and being engaged and calling my family at home from the middle of the fields. We then went back and celebrated that evening with The Thomas's.
this was taken when we got engaged by the camera timer.
Yesterday we had a celebration with the family here, a BBQ with lots of balloons, cards and champagne.

We can't wait to be married.

Amie... Oh my goodness.. i haven't checked blogs for a few days cause we had Brad's family at our house for Easter. Brad and I were just upstairs chatting and he was like oh you might want to check Amie's blog.. she's engaged! I ran downstairs with a huge smile on my face and here I am writing! Congratulations to you both. I am so happy you guys. I was just waiting to hear. It's funny remembering back to all those day's at Capes and you coming into the kitchen.. wanting to find Andy... hehe.. anyways I hope and pray that these next few months will go smoothly for you. I can already imagine your wedding being gorgeous.. you will be too. I'm hoping to see you in August. Brad, Heather and Edwin and I are all coming out Aug 5-10. You will be there right?
