Life Lately...

    My life lately has been a big jumble of memories and busyness and I have loved every minute of it. So, I thought it would be a good idea to retell my life lately in bullet points because who does not love bullet points?

• I returned home to Texas after two wonderful weeks in Florida complete with a big rock on my left hand!

• I have spent a lot of time retelling "THE STORY" of how Cam proposed... It has been so much fun... everyone please keep asking ;)
• I have finished up my 4th and final year as a swim team coach to some of the sweetest kids around. 
• I have spent time with my family, fiance, and his family. 
• I have laid in the sun with some of my favorites. 
• I went to my sister-in-law's baby shower with my other sisters!

• I have hugged and kissed on all of my puppies. Many many times.
• I have hung out on the lake with THE 3 sweetest and funniest little kids ever (Camden, Braelynn, and Crayton) and got to watch my fiance show off and talk wedding with my favorite Ally!

• I have read and read and read bridal magazines.
• I have become totally and completely obsessed with Pinterest... wedding plan at its' best!

• I have decided on the bridal party... now to ask them :) 
• I turned 21!

    Now on the agenda is to knock out this intercession course that I am taking. Health psychology I am coming for you. I hope I survive this 8-5:30 class! Then I am going to find my inner pinterest girl and create the best bridesmaids invitations ever! I will let you know how those go.... 

We Are Engaged!

    I have the most exciting news to share with yall! I am on the Mav-O Family Summer vacation. We have made it through Disney World and now are at Destin beach. Florida has been so good to all of us. Disney World was a blast and the beach is always amazing. Anyways on to my news...

Monday June 25, 2012 Cameron proposed to me!!!!!!!! I of course said YES with no hesitation. It was the most beautiful and exciting surprise ever. We had planned on going to Disney World Monday-Thursday, but it was pouring all day on Monday so we decided to hang out in town and check in to our resort. The resort was awesome and open, I am still convinced that there are alligators in those ponds. Cameron and I were standing on the balcony trying to see some of the wildlife. While we were doing that Cam's whole family was going to hide out in the trees to witness the BIG question. Cam had told me that Randi (his youngest sister) had seen an alligator and that we should go see it and I said sure. Then we walked outside and it was pouring and I almost decided to turn around and head back inside! Little did I know that I was about to be asked a question that would change my whole life. We walked onto this bridge and we were looking for the non-existent alligator. Cam then walked to the corner of the bridge and picked up a box that had a picture book in it. Cam handed it to me and we read it together and looked at all of our memories from high school and on. It also had quotes and sayings that said "I love you because...". I loved it and was so happy to get it I then went back to looking for the alligator!

I was completely clueless as to what was happening until he turned and got down on one knee and pulled out a beautiful black box. I said YES!!! I then cried and hugged and never wanted to let go of him. Then he told me to turn around and wave at everyone! Cam's family then came out behind their hiding spots armed with cameras and video recorders! I was so ready to hug them! It was perfect. My ring is perfect! My family is PERFECT!

Here are some of the amazing pictures that were captured by Ally and Cheryl!

The day was absolutely perfect. Getting to call my mom and dad and Gram and papa was so much fun. Getting to hug Cam's family was just what I needed! I can now not wait to wrap my arms around my parents and sisters!
