Engaged

On May 11th Jon proposed to me. It was probably the happiest I have been in my entire life! Here is the story of how it happened:
So last month was Jon and my two year and we told each other no presents, but I suprised him with Sho Gun dinner... he had never been and it was really fun so then he felt bad and said he was going to make it up this month for me and take me on a date May 11th (our two year one month)... so tonight I was all excited. We went outside and an old-fashioned limo car thing pulled up and I was so excited and told him he definitely made it up to me! So we cruised down twon to our reservations and he said that we were going to be really early so he asked the LImo driver to drop us off at River Front Park... so we got out and decided to go on the Gondola ride over the massively flowing river, it was gorgeous! Then on the ride back over the river he said it was really scary, but he would be ok cause he could spend the rest of his life with me and then got down on one knee and pulled out the ring and said the magic words... Will you Marry Me! of course I cried and then said yes and wrapped him in my arms and never wanted to let go... but then we had to get off once we got to the end of the ride haha. Then we went to Red Robin (its a thing of ours... whole other story) and neither of us could eat cause we were so nervous/excited/happy/ etc. THen the Limo driver picked us up in an Old Fashioned car... it was a 1933 Packard Super Eight Town Car... it was so cool! Then we just rode all the way home and it was a GORGEOUS drive home... the weather turned sunny right when we got downtown... it was perfect! GREAT NIGHT!
The Night was perfect and I cannot wait to start all of the planning. We have already started a little bit to make sure we get the place and date we want... and I am already a little stressed! Haha.

2 Years!


For our two year anniversary I suprised Jon and took him to Shogun. The chef was great and did so many cool tricks, and our celebration picture turned out so good. Jon had no idea what was going on because he had never been there before so it was toally worth the embarassment.



Then after we made a wish and blew out the good luck budah we got to rub his belly for good luck and eat his nummy pinapple! It was SO good.







Finally we took off our head wear; I had to get a good picture of us.
And after eating Filet Mingon, Steak, Shrimp, Fired Rice, Veggies, and Pinapple at Shogun we had to go to a very nice dessert... so of course the only obvious place to go was 7/11!!! The slurpies were so good, and Jon and I had a blast driving around and just enjoying each others company. Did you notice that I have a blue drink with a pink straw, and Jon has a pink drink with a blue straw? Haha. We didn't even plan it!

Songs That Take Me Back

Whever I hear any Spice Girls song it takes me back to when I was in 5th grade. Me, my sister and my neighbors all were a Spice girl and we would dance and sing on the Kine's driveway. We made up dances and everything to go along with every song. Summer nights were the best in that neighborhood. I hope that when I have kids I live in an amazing neighborhood!

Another song that takes me back is Cant Touch This. My little sister Katie and I made up a dance to Cant Touch This when I was a Junior in high school. The song came on the radio in the car and we both just started dancing and happened to do the same moves! It was so crazy that we had to make up a dance with the rest of our bodies and show it to my mom. To this day Katie and I still know the dance. Now my mom and I have a memory with Cant Touch This too because when I was a Freshman in college Jon was over and the song came on and my mom and I started dancing, apparently there is something weird about the way we dance cause Jon could not stop laughing.

Dont Take the Girl by Tim McGraw reminds me of Jon everytime I hear it. He loves this song and knows every word! The first time I heard him sing it was when I was driving in my car with him. During the part of the song where the mom almost dies giving birth Jon teared up and stopped singing and after the song he said that part is too sad cause he never wants that to happen to me. It was so sweet and I love this song!

So many songs take me back but there is just not enough time to write about them all. I am supposed to be studying for my ICLA test at 4:30 but I decided not to. Maybe I should go do that.
