It's been a while..... and A LOT has changed!

I know it's been a few months since my last post. April is my hero because she is unbelievable with her posts.... but anyways! I will get better at this, I promise! So since my last post I got ENGAGED! Whoop whoop!

So here's how the most amazing weekend of my life began. Jason and I decided to take a trip to Wilmington, NC. It's one of our favorite places and we go there for our anniversary each year. This time we were meeting up with Jason's mom, to show her the town and see some of their family friends who live there. So we flew in after a 2 1/2 hour flight delay and Jason freaking out because his suitcase had to be checked (with the ring in it) at the last minute! Jason said he wanted to meet his mom at the River walk for lunch and when we got there he seemed very nervous! We were holding hands and I even commented that his hands felt "clammy"! But I had NO IDEA what was about to happen! So after a few minutes of trying to find his mom I decided to go into some shops and wait for her. Meanwhile Jason was trying to get me to this special spot on the boardwalk. When I got back out to the boardwalk we both just stood there and look out at the water and talked about how pretty it was. He then asked me "what do you think is prettier... Wilmington or this...." I looked down and he had the ring in his fingers! I freaked out! I couldn't believe it and I think I even asked "Is that mine?". Ha! He got down on one knee and put it on my finger. We both cried a little bit and hugged a lot! I freaked out a couple more times and then we headed to meet up with his mom and family friends for a big celebration dinner! The next morning he asked me to go take a look at his computer. As I walked up to the screen I noticed a picture of us having our picture made on the boardwalk right after the engagement. I was totally confused and asked how he got this. I kept clicking through and realized there were 105 pictures of the whole engagement! He had hired a professional photographer to capture the entire thing! It was truly amazing! We had the best weekend hanging out on the beach and celebrating!
