So…..I’M ENGAGED! No big deal. ;)
Here is the story of the best proposal ever:
I had two weeks in Texas for my Christmas holiday from school. I flew in late Saturday night the 19th. Brendon planned an all day date for me on Tuesday the 21st. One thing that you must know is I am a planner; I will have everything written down in a list, color coordinated, with the best time efficiency. Brendon is a more chill man who goes with the flow. So when he planned an all day event with reservations and everything it spoke to my heart of his love for me by loving me the way I feel loved! (Yes we took the Danny Silk relationship study together. Haha)
He took me to the Gaylord Texas to see the ICE exhibit. Very sweet and very cold! I actually didn’t think he would propose since we talked about waiting till after I graduate in May and plus it was 9 degrees in the ice exhibit so needless to say I was just trying to enjoy the day and not thinking about a ring. After the tour he drove me to Dallas to Cafe Istanbul with a dozen red roses waiting for me on the table. This is when my brain started turning and wondering if anything else (aka a ring) would happen that night! After dinner he took me to our favorite park where we had our first kiss. On the way there he told me he had a gift for me. This is the part where I started freaking out praying he would propose but still trying to push it out of my head. Oh the joys of being a girl. When we got to the park everything was perfect. It was dark, but we had a full moon, cold but not freezing and we were walking down to the bench where we first kissed with a pond and a lit fountain in the background. It was brilliant. But as we were walking to the bench he started pulling out “the gift,” my heart sunk when I saw a bag of dark chocolates. Dark chocolate is my favorite but when a girl is expecting a diamond it is a bit disappointing. But I put a smile on my face and told myself not to ruin this perfect date that Brendon planned for me. I thanked him for the chocolate and realized the bag was already opened after he told me to have a piece. I of course became quite mad realizing he didn’t have a ring and it seemed that he already had a piece of MY chocolate. Oh yet again the joys of being a girl. When I opened the already opened bag of chocolate I discovered that each piece of chocolate had a love letter attached to it, 13 letters in all! My heart jumped back up after being sunk and started going crazy. We sat down and for the next 30 minutes I read every heartfelt love letter. Each letter started with a different nickname he calls and had a theme to go with that letter. By the last letter we were standing in the dim gardens of the park, he was behind me with his arms around me holding me close with his hands in my coat pockets. The last love letter told me to pull out something in my right coat pocket, turn around, hand it to him and look at him in the eyes. He had slipped the ring box in my coat pocket and when I turned around he gave me a beautiful speech, got down on one knee and asked if I would spend the rest of my life with him! It was the most beautiful and heartfelt proposal which made me laugh and cry all at the same time! I of course said yes and told him I was honored to have such a right standing, kind, and loving man choose me. After 10 minutes of laughing, crying and kissing, he took me to his house where there was a surprise engagement party waiting for us!! It was perfect. I am going to marry the most amazing man I know. I am so honored and blessed to be Brendon Wheeler’s wife!

Here are some pictures of the day!
Brendon and I at the Gaylord Texan to see the ICE exhibit
It was a Peanuts theme.
At dinner with the red roses waiting for me at the table.
Right when my Mom opened the door to the suprise party.
He makes me a happy woman!
The Ring!
