Well hello everyone! I'm not certain who is even following this blog, but I've got some pretty exciting news to share!!😁 On December 27, 2019 Charlie took me on a drive to Pescadero (which is where my former personal trainer Jen had suggested we visit some day). As we were driving along Highway 1 by the coast, at one point he saw a pretty view of the coast just off the highway so he pulled his car over on the side of the highway. I got SO excited to capture the beautiful views of the coast that I just began snapping a few images from my phone, Meanwhile, Charlie was simply standing behind me... At one point I turned around to smile at him and he was on the ground. I dismissively asked him if he was ok, to which he replied that yup, he was fine. So, I turned back around and continued taking photos. When I glanced back his direction a second time he was on the ground again and I was concerned... UNTIL I realized that he was down on one knee!!
So, after a couple of minutes of excited bliss, we continued on our way to Pescadero. Once we arrived in downtown Pescadero, (where I was in such an excited bubble) we asked someone if they would take a couple of pictures of us...
So, it's been a couple of months and I'M ECSTATIC!! We've already chosen the location where we'll be married and we've determined our wedding party (bridesmaids, groomsmen, flower girls, ring bearer, etc.) This is my first attempt at updating people about my current life situation... We had our engagement photos taken this past weekend by our wedding photographer (who happens to be friends with Charlie's mom/family) and it was SO EXCITING to meet my wedding photographer for the first time!! God seems to be looking out for me recently because (unfortunately) I had essentially given up on the idea of a marriage because I figured that I was now an overly complicated package (what with my fabulous traumatic brain injury and all). But, God sent me Charlie and I feel like a quite happy and content individual at the moment!!
I will probably post some of our engagement photos later, but this is my first attempt at advising the world of my happiness and of my fabulous engagement!!!
