Alli and I are engaged!!!!!!

Well, Alli and I have finally made it official. Today, I proposed to her. It was perfect! She had finished reading the Book of Mormon, something she wanted to do before we were engaged. She also wanted to come over and read our patriarchal blessings together. So she came over and we did and they fit together so perfectly. It was like we were reading our own. My heart was beating frantically and she had no idea why. So then I asked her if she wanted to finish watching the Emma Smith movie since we didn't a long time ago. She started talking when the movie started and I had to tell her to look at the t.v. It said (To the music Thunder by Boys like girls) "Alli, I love you! I have been needing to ask you something, but I thought we could relive the memories." Then began a long slide show of pictures of us played to the above mentioned song and also "The Shape of my heart" by Backstreet Boys (I know, Backstreet boys. I dont like them but the song worked.) It ended with a picture of Alli holding a bouquete of flowers and it said "I know you have had something on your mind..." then it cut to a picture of me holding the ring "Does it look like this?" I then got on my knee and proposed and we cried and kissed and got a mass load of texts from everyone so that is why I am writing this blog so I dont have to text this all out. But it was such a great moment and everything turned out so perfectly. I don't think I have ever felt happier in my life until I got on my knee and she said yes. I love Alli so much and am so grateful for having her in my life.  So there it is!
