And for everyone who doesn't already know- Were getting Married!! Sean proposed on August 4th and we are planning on getting married November 7th. So our lives consist of LOTS of wedding planning right now!! And figuring out future plans and moving plans. Sean is going to school over in Boise starting in January so we are making plans to move to Boise and get school done with and then figure out where life takes us from there!
Our Proposal Story!!!
Monday night I drove up to Driggs after Sean got off work and hung out, went to dinner, and then slept over at his aunts. The next morning we woke up at 4:45 AM! to go catch our hot air balloon ride (Which Sean LIED and told me that he got us hooked up with a good deal and that we got to go take a hot air balloon ride for really cheap(it's usually like almost $1000 to go up by ourselves!!), it was last minute and I was for sure that he hadn't bought a ring yet so I didn't plan on a proposal at all!! I just figured we were going on a ride for fun and was way excited!) So we got there and it was almost to windy to get the balloon up so Sean kinda freaked out, I wasn't sure why! So Sean thought we should maybe say a prayer to make the wind stop!-haha- and the wind stopped! and they got the balloon filled up and away we went. I was freaked out at first and almost crying and realized we were this far off the ground there was no going back now! So we had been up flying or floating or whatever for about a half hour and I was calmed down and the view was Amazing!!! It was WAY cool to be right next to the Tetons like we were and to see the world from a hot air balloon! It def is different from being in a plane and its a way awesome view!!
So out of NO WHERE! Sean pulls a little box out of his back pocket (Which I have no idea how I didn't see the huge box sticking out of his back pocket the WHOLE morning!!) And asks me to marry him!! And of COURSE I said YES!! Oh My GOSH YES!!! I was SO shocked and tearing up I didn't really believe it at first!! So we finally landed after an hour of flying and had the Traditional Balloonist Toast/Prayer (I really have no idea what exactly they call it but that is close enough!) We had OJ! and toasted and then Sean had MORE planned!!!
We drove down the road and Sean had a Breakfast Picnic set up with rose petals leading to it! IT was SOOO Cute!! It was down in the trees by this creek and it was such a cute little place! He did an AMAZING job on the proposal AND the Ring!!!
I'm SOO Excited to be marrying Sean and he has been such a blessing in my life!! I know we have def had a few bumps in the road to get where we are today but I'm so glad that we have both had faith in each other and been there for each other and we are where we are today! I can't wait for our wedding to get here and to just spend the rest of our lives together! I love him SO much!!
