beginning of forever....



it all started here last night when warren planned a romantic date for us at French 75 in laguna beach. the food was incredible...and there were chandeliers, so of course i was obsessing. i didnt really think it would happen at the restaurant, but i was hoping it was on his mind :-)

i had NO IDEA that w had driven to bakersfield the previous thursday night (he told me he was working on a group project for school) and had asked my father in person. i had NO IDEA he bought a ring this past saturday (he told me he was rock climbing). quite the trickster.

k back to dinner - it was amazing and i had filet (of course). we finished up and w asked if i we could stop one more place on the way home. i agreed (although was thinking i was soooo tired and just wanted to go home and sleep), but i didnt want to miss out on anything spectacular :-) so - he turned the car to head to top of the world park in laguna. as we pulled up i just had that feeling. i thought - this MUST be it! this HAS to be it! we had been to top of the world park MONTHS ago on another date, so it had a lot of sentimental value to both of us.

we walked over to the overlook and could see all of laguna. it was here where warren davis got down on one knee and asked me to be his forever. i could have just died then. it was absolutely perfect.



i couldnt sleep AT ALL last night. i was sooo excited to tell the world today that i am marrying the most amazing man on this earth. i couldnt be luckier. and i couldnt be happier. warren makes me a better person. he loves me unconditionally. he is the most gentle, kind-hearted, humble man i have ever met. oh - and did i mention funny? i cant wait to spend forever together. ily - w.

sooo....i know you are all dying to see pics of the ring. thanks to my bff mike cunningham for taking these for me. i am seriously obsessed. and yes, i picked it out (not w/ warren at my side), but he is a clever boy and was able to find the EXACT ring that i found a couple months ago that i had told him about in passing. isnt he just great? :-) ok - i know...sooo cheesy, but i have a right to be! i just got ENGAGED people. oh - and i bought my wedding dress back in june. surprise. warren was surprised by that fact last night too.





wedding date is TBA
