    After nearly 6 years of dating, I'm getting married to the love of my life!!!!  Here's the story:

    I've been sick with mono for the last few days, but my family insisted I come for our annual 4th of July celebration to watch fireworks. My entire family (parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc) was there. After it finally got dark, my *FI* asked me to come light a firework with him. We lit the firework, and then stepped back to watch it fire. As we move away towards my parents' garage, music starts playing and the garage door rolls down with the sign below. He gets on one knee and asks me if I'll marry him. It was amazing!!! I loved having my whole family there to share the moment with us. ;)I'm Engaged!!! :  wedding Picture 057
