he asked and i said YES!


so were engaged! he proposed on september 12th. he totally planned it,everyone knew except me. it was the perfect engagement for me. a proposal, in san diego, on the beach,with my best friends, and in n out after, followed by the rocket summer, where we watched from backstage. i honestly could not think of anything more wonderful.
my family came over a few days later for our engagement/housewarming party. they brought cake, and food, and engagement cards, and TONS of alcohol. we still have a 12 pack of coronas and a bottle of really yummy champagne, which we are saving for our 4 1/2 year anniversary which is on september 26th. but my family was so excited for us, the feeling of joy i felt was so immense. they loved our little place, they were expecting to see boxes everywhere since we just moved in. but everything has its place and it definitely feels like a home. so for the date we are planning a two year engagement and sometime in winter, perhaps the middle of january. but who knows, were just enjoying being engaged, all the planning and stress can wait a few months!
my life right now is just... perfect. i dont think its possible for me to be any happier than i am right now :]

too excited to sleep!

so we move in tomorrow, and i SHOULD be sleeping right now, but i am way too excited. we definitely have a long day ahead of us. there is not many heavy things to lift, other than my dresser. our couch is being delivered. our fridge comes with the apartment and my bed comes apart, making a few pieces to carry in. well, im not doing any of the lifting, mostly organizing.

i cant wait to plant in my little garden, and decorate my patio :] my mom got us a SWEET plate set, that is chocolate and turquoise, and matching plastic cups! we got our sectional we ALWAYS wanted, which of course is chocolate. that is kinda the theme color for the place.

and the best part is matt and i didnt have work today, tomorrow or the next day. we go back on saturday, and then we are off until the 16th! his birthday is on the 11th, and on the 26th we will have been together for 4 years and 6 months... where does the time go!?

i am so ecstatic to start my life with matt, he makes me feel like the happiest/luckiest girl in the world. and i still get butterflies just thinking about him:]


and this song explains perfectly how i feel about Matthew Forest Gregory Furgerson Ramsaur.




It's been a year
Filled with problems
But now you're here
Almost as if to solve them
And I can't live
In a world with out you now

All my life
I've been searching for you
How did I survive
In this world before you
Cause I don't want to live
Another day without you now

This is the best thing
The best thing that could be happening
And I think you would agree
The best thing is that its happening to you and me

All I want to have
Is all that you can give me
And I'll give right back
Everything I have in me
Cause nothing ever felt as right
As this does right now

I'll go back
To before we met
Try and erase the past
Try harder to forget
Cause nothing will ever be as good
As here and now

Cause when I looked into your eyes
And you dared to stare right back
You should've said nice to meet you, I'm your other half

This is the best thing
The best thing that could be happening
And I think you would agree
The best thing is that its happening

I always knew I'd find someone
I never dreamt it'd be like this
Cause you've surpassed
All that I'd hoped for and ever wished
And I'm trying so hard
With all my heart and mind

To make your life as good as you've made mine
