Well it's official, my Fiance is old! Jason turned 30 on the 18th and me being the amazing and completely un-modest Fiancee that I am, threw him a FANTASTIC surprise birthday party!
I am still a little shocked that no one spilled the beans on the surprise, including myself!!! I almost let it slip out on numerous occasions! It's so hard to keep something you are spending all of your personal time on a secret from the one person who knows every detail of your daily life!!!
The party was a huge success, all of the family and friends that could make it were there, everyone seemed to laugh and eat the night away! We had a ton of food and thanks to MomR Jason had a birthday cake I am sure he will not forget...She made him a PS2 cake with an edible remote!!!!! It was amazing and completely blew everyone away! I got a surprise of my own...Jason's parents had turned my birthday surprise for Jason into an engagement surprise for the both of us :-) As we had not gotten to officially celebrate our engagement yet, it was very special. MomR had made an amazing red velvet 3 tier cake and they had champagne to toast us with! In addition we received a few gifts that were so heartfelt that I was a pile of mush from the second the cake came out of hiding...Both cakes were so good that I cannot wait to see what she comes up with for our wedding cake!!!
For the record, I do not believe 30 is old or that J is old...It has been a running joke between Jason and I since we started dating that he was old as he is 2 years older than me (well we are actually only 1 year and 3 months apart, but thats a minor detail)...In all honesty, I can't wait to grow old with him...I can't wait to see what the next 30 or 60 years bring us together...I just hope in 30 years he is still laughing and smiling as much as he did last weekend cause we all know I am going to throw him one hell of a 60th birthday party :-D
I have to thank everyone again for coming and making last weekend so special for both myself and Jason! I especially have to thank MomR, without her I wouldn't have been able to pull it off!Happy 30th Birthday Jason, I love you more than words can ever express!!! Luviss and Huviss baby :-D
No I am not talking about my library books, I am talking about my engagement announcement!!!
I honestly can't believe it has taken me 2 months to the day to make this post, but here it is...
Jason proposed to me on September 3, 2011 while we were on vacation in Massanutten, Virgina!!!!! I was so completely surprised, I didn't even clue in that he was trying to propose! I am not always the sharpest knife in the drawer :-) I wouldn't change a single detail about Jason's proposal...It is a moment I will never forget...It was just the two of us, in a gorgeous condo at a beautiful resort and he even did the down on bended knee (well he tried to, I kinda ruined that...again I didn't realize what he was doing). Although, I think Jason could have asked me at my apartment while I was sick as a dog and I still would have thought it was the most perfect and romantic moment in the world!
Two months later and I think I am still the happiest girl in the world! I know it sounds corny, but the ring signifies so much more to me than just a promise to marry...To me it means he chose me to spend his life with, he chose me to be the mother of his children and he chose me to take his name. I thank God everyday for Jason. He is honestly 'one of a kind' and I love him more today than I did yesterday and I will love him more tomorrow than I do today. And I am not just saying that cause my ring is GORGEOUS!!!!
I have to admit we have amazing family and friends who made the proposal and the memories even better! Although we spent hours on the phone contacting the immediate family and best friends to share our great news all of the love and excitement we felt was so incredibly special that it made the long distance bill totally worth it!
The one question we got most two months ago and are still getting today is...when's the big day??? unfortunately with Jason still being in NY (although we have made progress, there's no decision made on his immigration visa) we are unable to pick a date. We are really hoping for fall 2013, but that all depends on when J can get here and we can officially start planning.
I have to warn you all that since J "put a ring on it" I have become way more of a romantic and I have become completely OBSESSED with EVERYTHING wedding, so there will be many a posts about how much I love J and our wedding!
If any of you have any wedding advice I would love to hear it, like I said I am obsessed :-)
