I'm engaged!!!

YAY!! David asked and I said YES!!! so here is the big story :)

On Wednesday, April 27, 2011 David and I had been dating for 8 months. It's been an amazing 8 months! Well it started as a typical Wednesday. I had my presidency meeting and David and I planned to go to the gym after. My meeting went a little long, and I was trying to get done on time, but it happens. Well when I walked out to my car and there was a note with my favorite chocolate bar. This was the beginning of my scavenger hunt for our 8 months :) His cute little clue had a treat and what it symbolized in our relationship. The Dove chocolate was to tell me he wanted to give me everything I deserve.

The first clue had the letter I on it, with a cheat sheet if I got lost :) To find clue 2 I was sent to the gym that we work out at. At the gym there was a soda representing the bad soda habit we have.
Clue 2 sent me to the place we first met...my school. David came to help set my classroom up with one of our friends. With the next clue there was a pack of nerds, cause we really are just a couple nerds

Clue 3 send me to the home of our friends who we met through. Landon and Tanner were our common friends and the only way we would have met! I got a pack of smiles with the next clue to represent all the laughs we have together.

Clue number 4 Sent me to the place where he first told me that he loved me. It was his house. I found Reese's there which represents how we say Reese's different and that we have our differences , but we still love each other.
Next I went to my house where we spent the our first real hang out night under the stars talking for hours on the trampoline in my back yard.

Then I found Clue 7 in my house on the front room couch were we took our first picture with a nutrageous bar which represented how nuts we were about each other early on.

Next Clue was on the kitchen table where we share many meals. This is where I was to rearrange the envelopes which read "I LOVE YOU" then my last clue sent me to where we had our first kiss
On the door there was a picture of the temple and the last questions said "Enter for your last question :)"
As I entered the room the lights were out, David was standing in the middle of the room with red candles and flowers all around. Music was playing. He looked at me and told me that he didn't only want to be with me right now, but forever. Our song started to play and he got down on one knee, Told me he loved me and asked me to Marry him. I said Yes! He put the ring on my finger and now it's official. I'm getting Married to the most wonderful man in the entire world. I love David with all my heart and I'm so lucky to be his forever. I love you Babe!
