Big News!!


WE'RE ENGAGED!!!


Yes that's right folks! Kurtis proposed! I wanted to take this moment to apologize that this is just now getting posted...we've been engaged since Thursday! I was very surprised! I mean, we were making plans, but I didn't have a clue when he was going to propose and even during his proposal I was still oblivious! It was so cute! He put a bandana around our (well more my) dog Dozer and strung the ring on the bandana. Well, I was upstairs getting ready for our co-ed softball game later that night and he came up to the top of the stairs and asked me when I'd want to start telling people we were engaged. Well, I thought it was kind of a random question, but didn't think anything of it so I just told him I don't know and asked why. So then he asked the question again. This time I stopped and still said I didn't know and then asked, "Why, do you have a ring or something?" He said, "Maybe..." So then I was confused but still not really paying attention to my surroundings. The thing was, Kurtis was looking down at the dogs pretty much the whole time we were talking!! So, finally he calls Dozer's name and I look down and lo and behold there's the ring! I was so excited that I didn't even really say yes! I said "Yay!" and then we put the ring on (which is completely gorgeous!!). About a couple hours later, I realized I never actually gave him an answer, so I told him (in case he didn't already know) that my answer was yes. So...all in all it was a very sweet proposal and funny at the same time because I didn't even get what was going on!


I'm so excited!! We don't have an exact date set just yet, but we're hoping for August so this will be a stress filled time while I plan, but luckily have a lot of people willing to help! I can't believe we're getting married and I feel so very lucky to have such an amazing guy that I'll get to spend eternity with!

Weekend Fun

Yes.... we are still alive. It's been a while but nothing exciting really has been going on in our lives much. We play in a softball league on Thursday nights but other than that nothing has really been worthy of blog material. If you ever want to laugh your guts out you should come watch the coed league on Thursday's that we play in. It's amazing. Anyways this weekend was good times in Roy. Every year Kurtis' work does this charitable deal where they choose 5-10 employee's to go to Guatemala and build a school and get some school supplies for the kids. To raise money for the deal they have a bowl-a-thon and it gets a bit crazy. This year we made our own shirts. We went and bought some white shirts from Walmart and a tie dye kit and went at it. We bowl once a year at that so it's obviously for fun. It was really fun though. We got a TON of great prizes including Kurtis getting a 3 month pass to Gold Gym.... and a few coupons for some dry cleaning... so the raffle God's think we are fat and dirty... awesome!
