ENGAGED!!! oh and 11 days till christmas

Mike and I are finally engaged. we are so excited to start all the planning (well at least i am). So everyone has been asking about the story. so here it is with a few pictures.
On Saturday December 13th we went with his family up to Logan to a voice male concert. It was really fun to see Amie and Scott and to laugh and be entertained by Voice Male. We went and ate at the Firehouse (a pizza place up there) then we went to Salt lake. Traffic was horrific. we parked at the Gateway mall. We rode the Trax up to Temple Square and took a carriage ride with his family. It was like the perfect night with all the snow softly falling. Then we went for a walk on temple square we left the group and found a nice quiet place. He told me to reach in his pockets to keep my hands warm and in the pocket was the ring. He got down on his knee and asked me to marry him. I guess i was some what shocked cause i didn't take off my glove. He told me to take off my glove and he put the ring on my finger and i said yes. We walked back to where the family was and told them and started calling my family.
On the way up to Logan for the Voice Male Concert.

Going on a Carriage ride.

it's kind of sad that i stand on something and he is still a foot taller then me.

Just before he Proposed.

My ring. He picked it out all by himself. (i told him i wanted white gold and a princess cut diamond.)
