...we're engaged!
After 4.5 years, Ryan proposed on Sunday, June 10th. Fun facts include the following:
- It happened right around where we had our first kiss on October 12th, 2013.
- I almost wore shorts and a tank top (thought we were going to a casual brunch), but decided to throw this on last minute (we stayed at my parents' place the night before and i almost didn't even pack it).
- I had zero idea what was happening pretty much until he got down on one knee.
- My gel manicure is about a month old (aka absurdly grown out) in this picture #selfcare.
- My heart rate probably hovered around 170+ for the next 20 minutes.
- I am the happiest clam!
Full story and plenty of details to come. I'm in the process of studying for the speech-language pathology Praxis exam (essentially a "boards" type of test), so the blog has been on the back burner for the last month or two during preparation. But I can't wait to dish out all the deets - where it happened, how it happened, and all of the other fun frivolities that came with it.
Thank you to everyone who has already sent along their congratulations and best wishes. I am so excited to start officially planning for our future...starting with a wedding! What?!?!
Also...probably a good time to let everyone know that the 'Rose' in Samantha Rose Says is actually my last name. Come next year, I'll be a Fredericks! (Unless I convince Ryan to become Ryan Rose, that is).
Also alsoooo...here's a closer picture of the ring. He did SO WELL, and I can't stop looking at this thing.
