I got me one!!!

So in the midst of this crazy thing called life, we all have these moments of beauty that just cause us extreme happiness. Today I had one such moment.

The man of my dreams asked me to be his wife!

I knew it was coming, but I didn't know when or how and that made it all the more special to me! We had been reading the Book of Mormon together nightly since a couple days after we started dating and tonight we finally finished it. As usual we were sharing our thoughts on the reading and I went first. I brought up Moroni's challenge to take in and ponder what we have read/ learned. When it was Jonathan's turn he got up saying "I have something that goes along with that" and he walked away into his room. After what seemed like FOREVER he came out of his bedroom with a hardcover copy of the BOM and had a page saved. He told me to turn to it and as I opened the book my eyes fell onto a page with a sticky note reading "Nadia, will you marry me?" I looked up and there he was down on one knee. The sticky note hid a stunning ring that I swiped out of the book while simultaneously hugging him. His mom poked around the corner with a camera (the pictures sadly didnt turn out) and asked what I said. At that point I had only managed to ask if he was being serious and had neglected to say "YES!" Thankfully her question reminded me and I let him know!!!

I had been wondering why during scriptures she kept coming and asking when we would be done. Normally she lets us read and than would talk to us, but she kept saying she needed our help setting up her ipad. :D Looks like I am marrying into an awesome family!

Phone calls were made, texts sebt, facebook updated, and than we went and got McFlurries and watched Kung Pow. Yeah we know how to celebrate!
