I'm going to be a Soran!
Tom and I were getting ready to take pictures for our Christmas cards on Friday night. I was attempting to find the perfect outfit that looked somewhat slimming for the pics. Tom was being the perfect boyfriend saying, "That looks great!" everytime I tried on a new shirt. About 8 shirts later and my attitude going downhill with every shirt that was tossed on the ground, Tom left the room. I thought to myself, "Uh oh, I better hurry because Tom is going to be out on pictures if I don't speed up this process and get a shirt real quick!" He was gone for a couple minutes while I stared at my closet trying to magically make a perfect shirt appear. Then he walked around the corner and said, "I think you should wear this." My first thought before I looked at him was, "Oh great, what did he buy?" and I turned around to see a handsome boy grinning ear to ear holding an open ring box! He got down on one knee and said, "Come here." so I knelt down by him and gave him a big hug. He said, "Get up dummy, I got something to say!" So I stood up, he took my hand and said some very romantic words, asked me to spend the rest of my life with him, and I said yes! Guess what!? After that, I didn't even care what shirt I was going to wear!
My ring!
My new stance for pictures.
