We're Engaged! March 1, 2008

I"m engaged!

edwin took me out last night to Galveston to the Aquarium and moody gardens. I've never been to an Aquarium before, so I was just thrilled and watched the penguins forever! After seeing multiple penguins pooh some gross white stuff, we decided it was time to move on. We walked along the water front and through the gardens when I was presented with my "first gift". It was a book on marriage and parenting which he wrote a sweet note on the cover. He continued to insist the gifts were "cheap and not a big deal" but he wanted me to ope

n them one at a time to make it fun.  The second gift was a new cute red bible. It was still in the box and he said I couldn't open it until the final gift was open. I proceeded to open the last gift and saw it was a james avery box. A long time ago I dreamt that Edwin gave me a james avery ring as a "stand in ring". he said he wanted to make my dream come true so i completely thought i was about to open up my band,

 but it was my RING! He got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. T

hrough the excitement, surprise, and sobs, I said yes!
