He Proposed, She Said YES!!!

Even typing this now, I'm still extremely giddy.  Allan, whom I've been with for about 5 years now, proposed to me on Saturday morning, quite unexpectedly.  I say unexpectedly because I had no idea he was going to do it then though it's something we've been talking about for a long time.

Picture this: It's just him and I, lying in bed and before I'm getting ready to make us some breakfast he leans to me and says some of the sweetest things I've ever heard before pulling out this beautiful ring.  It was honestly the most perfect proposal ever.  (I should begin by saying that I don't really like being the centre of attention and always said that to me, a proposal is something that should be shared between him and I only....it was beyond perfect.)  And, the ring ladies?  Not only does he know exactly what I like but he picked a style that has a vintage vibe to it.  I am over the MOON!!!!

I don't usually talk too much about my personal life but I needed to share this with you.  Plus, we've begun planning this fantastic vintage DIY wedding and it's going to be fabulous.  I can't wait to share some of the details as they emerge.

I am the luckiest girl in the world.  Not only am I going to be marrying the man of my dreams but also someone who is my best friend.  Eeeeekkkk.....I am so excited for the journey ahead!!

Thanks for listening and XO to all of you
