yesterday was my birthday and i turned 21!!! how weird! but, i am now able to legally drink my favorite beer--Becks Beer. Also, i can go gambling in vegas without being thrown out by security. Thats pretty much the good stuff. But thats not why i had the best birthday ever...
on september 10, 2006, my boyfriend, jarred, proposed to me!!!!!!!!
I AM NOW ENGAGED!!!!!!!
jarred took me up to mount timponogas temple to go on a walk and i was a bit suspicious until he asked me when my dad was available during the day to ask his permission. i was a little bummed because he hadn't even asked my dad yet. after one lap around the temple we went to the car and he opened up the trunk and there was a present in there for me.
so we went to a bench to open it. when i did, it was a binder and it said, "happy birthday Becky Lynn" on the front. when i opened the binder, it was a scrap book of our story. he had taken pictures of important parts of our relationship...like where our first date was, where our first kiss was and other things we've done as a couple. there were also fun pictures of us together and words that narrated the page.
Then on the last page there was a picture of the timponogas temple and a poem and at the end of the poem it said, "Will you marry me?" once i had read that, he got down on one knee and formally asked me. of course i said yes! it was so amazing and i am so excited to be married to the man of my dreams!!!!!
