Engaged

Slade and I knew we wanted to get married and we already started to think of the date and where.  I just didn't want to think to much about it until he proposed.  I had thoughts of what to do for the wedding but I just pushed them aside waiting for the proposal.

I knew he got a ring cause he would tell me there is something special at his house in Clearfield.  I was just waiting for the day when he would ask.  The weekend before new years eve, Slade became more secretive and would walk to the store by himself and wouldn't let me come.  He would talk to my family without me being there.  So I knew that it was going to happen soon.

December 31, 2012 came.  We went to the Eve party in SLC with my best friend Raegyn Crane and our friend Tyler Workmen.  It was really cold and we dressed up in dress clothes.  So we were pretty much freezing.  It came to 12:00 am and we did the party thing up there and then left.

The whole time Slade was texting someone but wouldn't tell me what and who so I knew something was up.
We get to my house and they dropped me and Slade off.  We walked up to the porch and he stopped.  He has been writing me letters and telling me they were from his secret admirer.  He told me it was him and then he read me a poem that he wrote me awhile ago.  It was about how he loved me and he thought how I was beautiful.

I unlocked the door and walked in.  To the right I see glow sticks hanging from the ceiling in my living room. It read "Marry Me."  Slade then got down on his knee and proposed.  I was shocked I didn't think it was going to be something like this.  Of course I said yes.  :)

Our wonderful day will be May 25, 2013 in the Jordan River Temple.
