Finally Something to Blog About

It's a beautiful Sunday morning and this is the first time in the past couple weeks that I've had more than just 5 minutes to sit and relax by myself.  Yesterday was my greatgrandmother's (Granny's) 94th birthday.  She is such an amazing woman and I can't help but think about my family and how blessed I am.  And now... it won't be too long until I start my own family.  John and I are engaged and we couldn't be more excited!!!  I was able to go to Utah with John to meet his family, which was the final step before the proposal.  It went great.  I love them!... and as far as I can tell, they love me.  :)  So next was back home to California and a proposal.  John popped the question on my front porch, where we had our first hug and our first kiss.  He explained to me how this spot was a special place for him and after getting down on one knee and pulling out the ring he ask me if I'd be his best friend forever.... and I said YES!  Things have been crazy busy ever since but I wouldn't change a thing.  My awesomely talented brother-in-law Steve took some engagement pictures for us yesterday and I love how they came out.  Here's a little preview.
