It's Official

Well, it's official. Craig & I are engaged!!! It happened last night & it was so sweet. Here's how the day unfolded:
First of all I was sick. Craig came & took care of me & took me to the doctor. He dropped me off at home after my appointment & "went to see his parents." At least that's what he told me. Little did I know he was running another kind of errand.
I was sleeping on the couch when there was a knock at the door. I groggily answered the door to see Craig who brought me Gatorade and Dawson's Creek (I was missing the 6th season).
Then he went back out to the car & came in with a dozen roses:
8 yellow ones for the 8 hours we spent talking the very first time we hung out
3 red roses for the 3 months we had been dating
1 white rose for the eternity we would spend together.
He got on one knee and asked me to marry him.
Of course I said yes, through my tears. It was the sweetest thing ever.

I'm really excited. I could not ask for a better fiance. He's truly the love of my life. He is such an amazing man. I'm look forward to a wonderful life & eternity with him.

Wedding updates to follow regularly.

hey Amanda when I come down will I need a hotel or can I stay at some one's house? I'm trying to plan how much i will need

Amanda said...

Pam, I'm sure we can find a place for you to stay, between my house, my parents house & my sister's house. I can't imagine that you would need to get a hotel room. We are going to Orlando the night before & we'll have a couple of rooms down there. So you should be good to go. The sealing is at 9am on March 7th and the ring ceremony & reception will be that night in Jax.
