Sorry for the lack of posts lately, I am still trying to sort through the transitions of a new job, school, and home. In bigger news.... I AM ENGAGED :)
Chad had a little surprise for me this memorial day weekend! A couple weeks ago we decided to spend the long weekend at his cabin in Northern Minnesota- fishing, four wheeling, and relaxing. Through out the weekend we had planned to go fishing several times but the weather was so rainy,resulting with us not being able to go onto the lake until the evening.
That night (Saturday) I finally caught my first fish and was ecstatic, In response to my enthusiasm, Chad asked me if I would like to go fishing the next morning, watch the sunrise, and drink coffee(all things that I love to do). Turns out the weather did not like that idea, and there was an awful storm that morning, cancelling our fishing trip. The day continued to storm but eventually lightened up after dinner. So we decided to go fishing off the dock instead(which at the time I wasn't feeling well and wasn't sure if I even wanted to go but decided I had to take advantage of the time we were at the cabin). Chad set up all of the fishing lines.ahed of time while I was inside of the cabin, so when we went outside we could immediately start our fishing. After sitting on the dock for 5 or so minutes,
I saw a bobber moving on the lake and got excited- I started asking Chad if I should bring it in. Chad told to real it in and when I did, a plastic fish was attached with the words "Marry me". Chad then got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. It was a perfect proposal and I am so happy to call Chad my fiance!

Chad and I have begun the wedding planning process and are hoping to be married January 2013. Stay tuned for updates!
Genesis 1:27-28 "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. And God blessed them. And God said to them, 'Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth, and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth"
Congrats!!!! :)
