Mom
Mom passed away Tuesday, December 15 at 2:04 a.m. She fought for 3 weeks. She is no longer in pain, and that comforts me and my family. We were so fortunate to have her love for the short time we did. Thank you to all of my family and friends who have comforted me during this extremely difficult time. Thank you especially to Matt. He has been amazing through everything. I couldn't have asked for a better person to spend the rest of my life with.

It's official!
We're engaged!!! Matt propsed Friday night/early Sat. morning!!
Here's the details....I know you want 'em!
Matt lit all the Christmas lights inside and outside our house after we got home from a friend's Christmas party. I thought this was a little weird, but didn't mind. :-) We sat down on the couch replaying the night's events of our fun times with great friends. He told me that I needed to check my stocking because it looked a little weird. "It's fine," I told him....not realizing what exactly was going on at first. He said it again....and then I got it...maybe there's something in it I need to see. So, I checked my stocking. Inside was a Timeline that Matt had written chronicling the major events of our relationship. It was 8 pages!!!!!!! I read through each milestone with tears in my eyes. It was so sweet! He's a wonderful writer. The last line said "I think you forgot something in your stocking....." I went over to my stocking to take it down, and I realized there wasn't anything in it. I turned around to tell him, and he was down on one knee. He spoke quickly holding back tears "I cannot live without your love. Will you marry me?" Of course I said YES!!! I got down on my knees so I could hug him. We hugged, laughed, and cried for what seemed like forever until FINALLY I realized that I needed to see my ring! He got it out and put it on my finger....and I gasped! It was beautiful!!!!!!!! He did an amazing job, and I was blown away. We still can't believe we are engaged!
We are planning a beach wedding in Key West for late June. Stay tuned for more details!
