I am so excited to be able to start a PJ...I won't feel so silly looking at Wedding stuff!!
Our Story
Almost a year ago I had just broken up with a guy who was ALL wrong for me (can we say white washed tapered jeans?) So I decided to go online to some dating sites...just to meet some people, maybe go on a few dates, just get out of the house. I then recieved an email from Eric...something about the way he wrote to me, or looked forward to my emails to him that intrigued me. About a month after we started emailing we had our first date. It was truely love at first sight We had the most romantic first date I have EVER been on!!
Eric and I live about 45 minutes apart and try to see each other between 2 and 3 times a week. We recently decided to move in together (one month and counting!!). I think we have been talking about marriage since a week after our first date .
Here's us...one of my best friends Lauren (JazzyLolo) took this:
I love this one thought...so silly
The Proposal
So like I said, we have been talking about marriage for a while and even went ring shopping about a month ago. HOWEVER...Eric is always telling me that it will happen...someday He mentioned once it would happen this year by Christmas, but it would never be on a day I would expect (holidays or anniversaries).
Sunday night he suprised me by taking me to the spot of our first date, reading me a poem he wrote himself, and getting down on one knee...UBER romantic. It was perfect.
Apparently the PLAN was to propose on our upcoming trip to Disney on our anniversary So much for unexpected. But he said something about Sunday just felt right and he had to do.
Here's my ring
Our Plans
So we haven't decided on much...except it WILL be at Disney. Today I think we agreed on a date 3/9/10 but I still have to call DFTW...and convince my father. He isn't exactly thrilled we are engaged yet and thinks we should wait. I think it has something to do with this being my second marriage.
We are aiming for something small...probably about 40 people. I am excited to have my PJ because I want to keep the planning low key because of my father...for now
