The Proposal

I'm pretty sure every little girl has dreamt up a million different scenario for how her Prince Charming will pop the question. I know as i went through each phase in my life and with every new obsession, I came up with a new proposal idea. However, when the time FINALLY comes for that oh so important question, you don't really care how it happens..you just want it to happen!...Well, at least I did..haha..I'll stop wasting time and get to how it all went down!

December 15: 

I woke up, got ready (and tried harder than normal because when you finally make it to 22 you want to look good), was picked up by Jordan and we went to breakfast at Denny's. Apparently all you need to do is show your ID and you get a free breakfast! Sadly, we sorta forgot to tip the server, sooooo we will never be able to go back there...a big faux pas...but lets move on, shall we?

We headed towards a hike near the Phoenix Temple;two things I love. On the way up Jordan told me to keep an eye out for a nice rock since that was all I was going to get for my birthday. In my head I wasn't even thinking the "rock" could mean "engagement right", so I tell him I wanted to find one of those white rocks with sparkles in them...haha so dumb, I know! As we get closer to the top, I pretty much lost all hope that I was ever going to find a pretty rock and suggest we get a normal one, paint it, and roll it in sparkles. We finally make it to the top, look around, decide a picture is a must (because that's how I document my life) and Jordan goes and asks a random person to take our pictures. Little did I know that Jordan had cued the stranger in on what he was about to do. I give Stranger Man my phone, he takes a few "pictures" but is really recording the whole thing. I go up to him to check the pictures he took (because we all know not everyone can be photographer and just because an iPhone is user friendly doesn't mean you'll get the perfect shot) and Jordan taps me on the shoulder....I turn around...and he is on ONE KNEE!! ONE KNEE!!! AHHH IT WAS REALLY HAPPENING!!! AHHH!!! (<-what was going through my head at the time) I say yes! I am in total disbelief. But I am just so happy!

After that craziness, we went to a Hawaiian restaurant where I got spoiled with some Poke. And in between bites I was busy calling and texting everyone about the news.

By the end of the night not only was my belly happy, but my heart was the happiest it has ever been. I guess you can say it was an unforgettable birthday!

The Beginning


Well, I’ve decided to leave my blog, The Littlest Songbird, as a sister missionary blog. This will be my new blog! It’ll be about my new life, post-mission and post-single life. Wait…did I just say ‘post-single life’? I sure did! You’ll get more details on that in later posts. But since I am so incredibly bad at writing in my journal I made it a New Year’s resolutions to blog at least once a week. I made this goal because now I really have to start thinking about my future family. Hopefully this will give something for my future generation to read (and to learn and laugh from) and they won’t be hating on me for not writing anything down! Well, lets get started!
