I AM ENGAGED!!!!!!

That is right! I AM ENGAGED!!!!! I hate that everyone in Reno has to find out this way but thats what happens when you live in a different state! So let me just tell you the wonderful story!

I knew i was going to be getting engaged pretty soon and i thought for sure it was going to actually be tonight. Chance led me to believe it was! So because i knew so much about it he really wanted to surprise me! So yesterday he decided that he would do it last night. so he called me adn told me that Tori and Lewis invited us over to go watch the football game and eat pizza. We were supposed to be there by like 7. Well Chance didnt even pick me up until 7:20. Now all of you that know me pretty well know that i am OCD about time. So i was sitting there like o crap we are so late! So we start driving and Chance gets off the wrong exit. He told me he wants to show me something. So in my head i am like you have got to be kidding me! WE are already so late!!! But Chance always likes to do little suprises and sweet things so of course i dont let him see that i am super worried about the time. He drives me up to the Timpanogos Temple and parks. Then he says, " ok now lets get out i want to show you something. So once again i am thinking we are now already 45 min late, what is so important, but still never let Chance see that. So we get out and walk up to the temple and i said, " Hey Tori and Lewis got married in this temple but i really don't remember it being this temple i swear it was another on!" by this time we are right in front of the temple. So then he turns to me and says, " Well i don't think you will ever forget this temple." Then he got down and one knee and asked me to marry him!!!!!!!!!!!! I was so shocked i seriously had no idea! I didn't even look at the ring i just jumped up and down and gave Chance a long hug! Then he was like, " Winter don't you want to try the ring on?" And i was like o yea!!!!!

It is the most beautiful ring i have ever seen!!! Chance custom designed it and had it made so it doesn't look like everyone elses! It is so amazing.

So now tonight he is taking me on the actual planned night. I don't know what we are doing but we will be doing it in SLC!

I can not believe it is finally my turn! The wait was well worth it! I love Chance more than anyone can imagine! He is my other half!!!! Chance is the most kind hearted and selfless person i know. I am one lucky girl to get to be his wife. I know he will make me so happy and i will do the same for him. Just like everyone else says, We are perfect together!

I will keep everyone updated on plans and what happens tonight!

YAY for my little sister who is going to be a wife! Come to think about it, that sounds so weird! You will be a great wife though! I am excited about this business. The ring is beautiful, the Temple is going to be beautiful, the groom is handsome, the bride will be hotter, and the pregnant bridesmaid will be fat and swollen. Sweet! Can't wait to get planning, we don't have much time:) And let me know if you need more help planning your love trip to Mexico. Love you and could not be HAPPIER for you and for Chance.
