I realized...

I pretty much just realized that there is no proposal post. lol it's nothing to exciting but everyone keeps asking so I'll post it.

Feb 14th happened to be Saturday this year. which was nice. So we went to Toad's(formerly mulligans) with Andy's parents, little sister, older sister and her live in boyfriend/soon to be husband -mostly known as Paul- earlier in the afternoon. OK like about 5. we ate some pizza and played games and mini golf and stuff like that. it was fun.

*side note: Andy Erin(his older sister) Paul and I all played this nascar racing game and I beat all of them. yes even my gamer boyfriend. it was an exciting day*

Then Andy had reservations for us at Goodwood on Riverdale at 8. so we headed down there and had dinner. it was nice. After we finished Andy had tickets for a movie that he"picked out just for you" but he wouldn't tell me what it was. so we went to the megaplex. the movie turned out to be he's just not that into you. great movie btw. then we went back to my house and did our normal sit outside in the car and talk til 5 am thing. during the course of said talkage Andy goes. "where do you see this going?" and we talked about our future and how everything that we can think about involves the other person. so it wasn't really official but it was? i dunno how to explain it

Andy told his family sometime during the next week. cuz they are all open and stuff like that. and so that was no big. something like one of his parents asked if there was a wedding in the future and he said yes. nothing too... huge. Well throughout the course of the week via text(welcome to the 21st century) we kinda decided that this wedding thing that was in the future should be in the near future like the this year or early next year future. so then we had to tell my parents. which there is a whole 'nother blog about lower. so I'll skip that. long story short: I thought they would freak and was scared to death. they were totally all for it.

That was like the Saturday after valentines. so like the 21st i think. that day we had gone up to this ring shop in Logan called s.e. needam's (i highly recommend it. they were so friendly and upfront. and if you go. use Andy and i''s name. we'll get a free dinner certificate) and had picked out a ring cuz we were going to have the ring at dinner with my family so it was like. um so this has already been decided we'd like it if you don't fight us every step of the way. but it needed to be sized cuz i have big man hands. they said it would be done Monday night.

we couldn't go get it Monday cuz we both work nights, Tuesday we went to see the draper temple open house so we didn't make it up there that day. so Wednesday we went back up to Logan to pick it out. so we're driving back and I look at Andy and go. "even tho it's already decided you should humor me and do the whole down on one knee thing" and he goes "OK." so we went to a park and he humored me. that's pretty much the whole story. i posted a pic of said ring:



this is just the "engagement" part. there is a band that goes under and has some more stones in it. I'll post a pic of the completed thing in Aug when i get it ;) but yeah. that's pretty much it.
