It's been a while since I last posted, so I'll quickly update my life :) I survived finals and graduated from the BYUI nursing program! It's nice to be done, but I'll start working towards my BSN next semester. Now I'm home and it's been awesome relaxing and hanging out with Dan and my family. I wanted to post our engagement story and here it is...
Dan and I were in Disneyworld enjoying my first full day there since I had school and got there a little later in the week than him and his family. We had the most fun, perfect day in the Magic Kingdom and then had a delicious dinner at one of my fave restaurants, Whispering River Canyon. We wanted to watch Wishes, the special firework display, on the beach at The Polynesian and we could watch it there across the water. We rushed back from dinner, stopped by our room (little did I know it was so Dan could get the ring out of the safe there) and went down to the beach. During the finale, as the music was talking about wishes and dreams coming true, Dan said to me "I wish you would marry me. Will you make my wish come true?" We'd been talking about marriage for a long time, so I did not realize he was proposing until right after when he got down on one knee and said "Will you marry me?" and opened the box with my gorgeous ring. Of course I said yes!! I was so surprised because Dan and his mom had tricked me and told me my ring would not be ready for a few more months lol. I couldn't stop staring at my ring and absolutely LOVED it! I picked the setting and Dan chose the center stone but then we had it made and I had not seen what it actually looked like. It came out perfect! We hugged on the beach and one of the most classic moments was as we were leaving, when an older couple who was standing behind us and had seen the whole thing said "Now make it last for 52 years like us" Then I called my family to tell them my exciting news and we went back to the hotel where Dan's family was waiting to see my ring and hear all about how Dan proposed. We also updated our relationship status on Facebook, haha gotta make it Facebook official!! SUCH A MAGICAL NIGHT AND I CAN'T WAIT TO MARRY THE LOVE OF MY ETERNITY!!!!
