fin.

the last thirteen days have been more than overwhelming.

its so hard to wrap my mind around the events as of late, how emotions have been on both ends of the spectrum. i have been so incredibly happy the past few weeks. i have been sad and angry to boot. [i swear sometimes im bipolar, or some nonsense like that, but most likely im just overwhelmed and dealing]

i am engaged to the most amazing man ive ever known. i have so incredibly blessed. honored at that. [place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. it burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. song of solomon 8:6]

i have such wonderful and supportive friends. how i came across them, i will never know. my heart aches so much knowing that some of my best friends are a million miles away, in different states and different countries. if only nashville was your home too.

i am scared. i am incredibly excited. i am sitting in my new home. it is a perfect little apartment with hardwood floors and big windows and even bigger trees outside of them. it is cozy. i am excited for the upcoming year. i am ready to put two thousand and nine behind me.

hardest year of my life.

its funny [and by funny i dont really mean funny at all] how two seconds can change your life forever. how life becomes more real, more destructible, in two seconds. how breathing a last breath is feasible.

how incredibly fortunate i am. how incredibly good God is.

i am ready for two thousand and ten. i am ready for a new chapter and a new story.

ps. coeur de pirate will hold a special place in my heart. i love her and her music and her singing voice and her piano playing skills. oh. and. her hair.

i love you. and you.

ok.

ahem.

lets start from the beginning.

yesterday the fifteenth of december. it was sweet little Kailyn's three year old birthday party. i got her two dr. seuss books. oh, the places you will go! and the sleep book. seriously, so excited to go to a three year olds birthday party.

danny wanted a coffee date before we left, at fido. there were a couple of times where i definitely tried to get out of it so we could just go to the partay.

but alas. we went. i picked danny up from his apartment and we went to get coffee at fido. props to D, he was so calm. it was kinda busy..we went to look for a table. we walked towards the back, im super oblivious. sooo. i looked up and saw one of my dearest friends john from wisconsin sitting in the back with kami and david and calen. what the hell? i kinda freaked out, yet, i still had no clue what was going on.

we hugged. it was a good moment. i turned around and saw rachel and lacey. and then i got super confused. and then it happened. i dont really remember much after that, except i kept sayin "oh God this is happening right now" danny got down on one knee. and said "wanna be my wife?" i think i said yes? haha.. i said yes.

perfect moment. pictures to follow.

loveyou.
